The new AC 5.130-1 is the second to join Autovictor’s fleet and features a six section 59.8 metre main boom toped by an 11.4 to 21 metre swingaway extension to which a 12.3 metre lattice section can be added between the boom nose and swingaway for a maximum tip height of 89 metres.

Operations Manager Alessandro Gino said: “We ordered the first AC 5.130-1 back in 2021 and are extremely happy with it – together with its long main boom and outstanding lifting capacity, the crane’s compact dimensions make it an incredibly versatile machine, especially with the Flex Base outrigger system. We also took the swingaway and second winch option to make it a true all-rounder for a broad variety of jobs at industrial facilities and installing precast concrete components which we expect to be typical work for this crane.”
During a visit to Tadano Zweibrücken earlier this year to see the AC 5.130-1 Gino kicked off negotiations to purchase a 650 tonne CC 38.650-1. Stating: “The visit not only reaffirmed our faith in the quality of Tadano products and service, but also kicked off negotiations regarding the purchase of the CC 36.650-1.”

Tadano Italy business leader Davide Camperi said: “We reached a verbal agreement with the month, and the following month signed the purchase order, delivering the big crane barely a month after that, complete with customer colours. That really was an incredible accomplishment on behalf of our team in Zweibrücken.”

The CC 38.650- 1 can handle its 650 tonnes maximum capacity at a 12 metre radius and features 171 metres of main boom with maximum tip heights of up to 193 metres. Its Superlift Split Tray with quick couplings makes it easy to uncouple counterweight that is no longer need once the main boom has been erected. reducing the need for an assist crane.
The four axle 80 tonne AC 4.080-1 – which was ordered along with the AC 5.130-1 but was delivered along with the big crawler -is also the second model in the Autovictor fleet.
