German lifting equipment manufacturer Böcker will launch the 12 tonne AK 52 aluminium truck mounted crane at the Dach + Holz (roof and timber) exhibition later this month.

The new crane, mounted on a three axle 26 tonne truck with rear axle steering, features a four section main boom plus three section luffing jib, for a 52 metre tip height, with the option of 55 metres. The crane has a maximum lift radius of 45 metres, and can take a one tonne load to a 34 metre radius at a height of 30 metres.

The Easy-Lock system on the crane allows the quick and easy installation of the aerial work platform with a 51 metre maximum working height. The platform can be hydraulically extended to 3.5 metres, and offers a maximum platform capacity of 600kg at up to 30 metres of outreach, while the capacity at the maximum outreach of 36 metres is 100kg.

The crane features Bocker's intelligent control and radio remote control system with full graphic display. Automatic levelling and axle retraction are standard for quick and easy set up.

The new crane will also be shown alongside the new Böcker AHK 36 trailer mounted crane at Vertikal Days on May 16th and 17th at Donington Park, UK.
