December 21, 2005 — Koenig Cranes recently announced its latest model, the Koenig K45T self erecting tower crane, is now available in the United States and Canada. This machine features a 147' 8” jib and a standard under hook height of 91' 10”. This crane can be also luffed up to 30°, which raises the under hook height to 162' 3“.

 

The K45T has a maximum standard lifting capacity of 11,023 pounds, which can be increased by up to 20% with the use of the company's "Power Lift" option, thus raising the maximum lift to 13,228 pounds. In addition, the K45T has a maximum capacity at the jib tip of 2,535 pounds, which can also be increased by up to 20% with the use of "Power Lift", raising the maximum tip lifting capacity to 3,042 pounds.

 

The K45T is designed to work in conjunction with the new Koenig "Free Standing Frame," which allows cranes to be elevated by an additional 19' 8” and placed over and above sidewalks adjacent to city streets.
