The ATF 400G-6 will be the first 6-axle crane within the TADANO fleet of the crane service company operating all over Germany. An investment into increased lifting capacity combined with maximum maneuverability on roads in proven quality and reliability.
Since its foundation in 2000, the I&H Kran-Transport-Montage-Service GmbH boasts a fleet of only TADANO cranes on its factory premises in the vicinity of Leipzig. The delivery of the All-Terrain Crane ATF 400G-6 stands for the entry into the 6-axle class. Nils Laumann, member of the Management, states the advantages of the investment: “Normally, such a lifting capacity is only provided by 7-axle machines, which restricts flexibility enormously. The ATF 400G-6 takes us through all roundabouts in our core area and need not be accompanied by escort vehicles.“
For Nils Laumann, the invariably quick spare parts supply service is another reason for the decision for this crane, just as the dual-engine concept for separate operation of carrier and crane is another aspect for a TADANO model, economically speaking. Contrary to other manufacturers, TADANO continues to develop this technology consistently, what is greatly appreciated by customers such as I&H. Regarding fuel saving, Nils Laumann lists another asset of the concept which has influenced the decision for TADANO: “As we keep our fleet permanently up to date, the resale value of the cranes is essential. With the two engines, I can verify the precise number of operating hours of both machines without any problems; this is a strong selling point.”
The 6-axle crane was delivered on 11 November 2014 in Lauf / Pegnitz. Thus, the crane and transport service provider now has a fleet of eight TADANO cranes, starting from the 30 ton class via the 110 and 220-ton models up to the new 400-ton crane. Siegfried Müller, area manager of TADANO, was pleased to welcome the Managing Director Michael Ide and his assistant Nils Laumann as long-standing, loyal customers on crane delivery. “At TADANO, personal contact is paramount. Here, the customer is not just a figure; the company instead knows the individual requirements of its clients”, as Nils Laumann puts the relationship with his supplier in a nutshell.
