MULTIPURPOSE AND GENERAL CARGO HANDLING. THE TUKAN M: THE VERSATILITY OF A DOUBLE JIB CRANE
Multipurpose and general cargo handling are primary tasks in global goods handling. Multipurpose solutions are a requirement at any successful terminal - adaptation to the existing infrastructure is essential.
TUKAN M
The Tukan M (Multipurpose) is our professional all-rounder crane for efficient, versatile and reliable handling.
SHORT AND QUICK - THE IDEAL LOAD PATH
Ardelt invented the double jib principle for level luffing cranes in 1932. Since then, the company has built thousands of cranes based on that principle and has continued to develop it. The Tukan's double jib luffing system is the basis of its outstanding handling performance. It guarantees that the boom tip always remains at the same height and always close to the load, while achieving an almost horizontal load path. This it does purely mechanically, whatever the load. The lifting mechanism does not perform any additional, unwanted movements. This in turn saves lifting-mechanism energy. A crane could not be more efficient in the way it works.
THE CRANE FOR CRANE OPERATORS
Because of the geometry of the double jib, the cable between the boom tip and the load is extremely short. Thanks to a broad base, the cable is optimally routed, giving the crane operator the best possible control. A Tukan's load remains stable with an absolute minimum of sway.
