Kobelco CKE700
HSL
HSL from Singapore (SG) has several of these fine Kobelco CKE700 crawler cranes, which are often deployed as auxiliary cranes alongside foundation machines. It is a 70-tonne crawler crane.
Here, the crane was erected with a 30.5-metre-long main boom. In this configuration, the crane can lift a maximum of 27.3 tonnes at a radius of 6.8 metres or 4.3 tonnes up to 27.7 metres.
The CKE700 is powered by a Hino J08E-TM, a 6-cylinder diesel engine with an output of 159 kW. The diesel engine drives a total of three hydraulic pumps.
The carrier is 5.99 metres long and 4.83 metres wide. For transport on public roads, the width can be reduced to 3.39 metres. A total of 3.1 tonnes of central ballast is mounted on the carrier.
A total of 22.5 tonnes of ballast is mounted on the superstructure; the swing radius of the ballast is 4.15 metres. The ballast consists of three parts weighing 8.99 tonnes, 7.373 tonnes and 6.192 tonnes respectively. During crane operation, the A-frame has a maximum height of 6.18 metres.
The crane is equipped with two 8-tonne hoist winches, both of which are also in use here.
A very fine crane from HSL!
