Adjustable lifting grab
The Caldwell group has a 2.7 tonne adjustable lifting grab which can be used for concrete, marble and granite blocks with widths from 75mm to 1.52 metres. The attachment was used by Texas Landscape Creations to install a layer of concrete blocks each weighing 1.3 tonnes and measuring 1.5 metres by 600mm. Company owner Jeff David, said: “Previously, we would have used forks or slings, usually a combination of the two. This attachment proved to be a real timesaver possibly saving 30 percent of the estimated time for the project.”

The Changing Face Of The Scissor Lift Market
The majority of self-propelled scissor lifts have been electric powered since the market began to take off in the late 1970s, gathering pace in the mid 1980s. With almost 90 percent of all scissor lifts already battery powered we take a look at the remaining 10 to 15 percent of the market that remains diesel powered â mostly full size Rough Terrain models. This, along with a look at some of the latest new product launches in the rest of the scissor lift market.
Wind safety developments
A serious wind farm accident in 2008 led to a decade long process of safety improvements in the sector and offers a casebook example of how to build an understanding of safety between all those involved. Will North spoke to two of those leading the efforts, Klaus Meissner and Ton Klijn, who explain the resources available to ensure safe lifting on wind farms.
Rising winds
As a new generation of larger, higher, wind turbines become commonplace around the world, wind farm developers will need to look at employing larger lattice and telescopic crawler cranes to install them. Will north reports.
Edilgru MH 1000-30/32
Edilgru is an Italian manufacturer of self-erecting tower cranes. CGM Models of Italy has produced this 1:50 scale model which is substantially made of high-quality plastic, rather than being diecast. It comes in an Edilgru branded box, but there are no instructions included, which is a pity as they would be helpful.
Bringing Battersea Back To Life
Londonâs iconic art deco style coal-fired Battersea Power Station was constructed in various stages between 1929 and the mid-1950s. By 1983 however the entire site was decommissioned to be left empty and decaying on the south bank of the River Thames until 2013 when work was approved to begin a long-term restoration and transformation project set to cost £9 billion.
The higher hundreds
In the second of a two-part report, Will North looks at All Terrain cranes between 130 and 180 tonnes. While some models in this class target taxi crane work, it also marks the point where five-axle carriers become standard with most models designed for project work.
Spiders gaining traction
The results from our survey of the tree care sector in last monthâs issue of cranes & Access highlighted how spider lifts are the platform of choice for arborists. In the following pages we take a look at the latest spider lift products and features on the market to see why they are proving so popular. We also speak with CMC's UK distributor Tracked Spider Sales and UK rental company Spiderlift.
Unconventional power
Conventional fuels may be the energy source of yesterday, and renewables the innovation of the present, but tomorrowâs fuel could well be fusion power. The name of ITeR, originally the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor, puns on the latin âThe Way'. The project is supported by the european union, India, Japan, Korea, Russia and the united States. The global joint venture partners clearly believe fusion power is the way forward.
XCMG XGC220T
The XCMG XGC220T is a telescopic crawler crane with a capacity of 220 tonnes. This model by Yagao comes in an XCMG branded box and includes an instruction sheet printed in Chinese and English.
Luke Reddish - CPA Lifting Technician of the Year
This yearâs CPA Stars of the Future âLifting Technician of the Yearâ award was won by Luke Reddish, 28, of Wolffkran - one of the first crane companies to adopt the new Lifting Technician Trailblazer Apprenticeship. Wolffkranâs Samuel Slocombe was also highly commended.
