Potain MR 418 Specifications

The Potain MR 418 luffing jib tower crane is designed to set up, work fast, and provide the capacity and compact footprint expected from a Potain tower crane.  A recently introduced on-board control system allows for operation in mere minutes after assembly is complete, and the uniquely mounted luffing mechanism and hoist ensure there is plenty of room for operation in the tightest job-sites.

Perfect for power plants or high-rise buildings, including super-tall structures.

Total luffing time: 1 min 15 sec
Maximum hoisting speed: 254 meters per minute
