Each crane supplies 02 buildings and it brings the most economical solution with the necessary performance for the timeline.” said Paulo Carvalho, Technical Director of Locabens. He says that the MC115B’s can lift 2,2 tons at 50m jib and 6 tons of maximum load. “The market for the 120 m.t class is growing in São Paulo” he adds.
