Schmidbauer introduced new all-terrain crane

Schmidbauer introduced the 500-ton Terex Demag AC 500-2 SSL. The 500-ton all-terrain crane is equipped with the Sideways Superlift, SSL, and a star-type outrigger, and also included a 99-yard luffing jib, a 68.6-yard fly jib, and a 180-ton counterweight in the delivery. The Terex Demag AC 500-2 SSL is the shortest eight-axle machine in its class with a carrier length of only 56.4 feet. With a boom extension, the crane can achieve a maximum working height of 481.2 feet. The crane achieves enormous power in all lifting capacity operations through such features as the improved Demag ovaloid boom design with diagonally arranged self-centering slider shoes and the reinforcement of the sideways superlift. Deflections of the entire system are minimized by means of the star-type outrigger.

Short setup times and ease of operation through an innovative crane control system ensure optimal working conditions. The crane is powered by the latest DaimlerChrysler engine technology with 653 HP.
