Manitowoc 18000

Manitowoc 18000

The Model 18000 can lift up to 750 t (825 USt) with MAX-ER striking the ultimate balance between brute strength and ease of mobility to deliver high capacity and a compact footprint.

  • EPIC®: Manitowoc’s field-proven Electronically Processed Independent Controls (EPIC) system delivers high productivity and precise load control by instantly matching a crane’s commands to the crane function.  EPIC's microprocessor maximizes a Manitowoc crane's function capability and simplifies servicing by pinpointing any problem in the crane's engine, power transmission and other operating systems.  In addition, EPIC increases versatility by easily tailoring a Manitowoc crane’s operation for specialized applications, with or without attachments. EPIC is a key reason no other crane can match the performance and reliability of Manitowoc
  • Hydraulics: Our closed-loop system provides a separate hydraulic circuit to power each crane function. The result is independent, variable speed operation of the swing, load hoist, boom hoist and travel functions.
  • FACT™ Connectors: Manitowoc’s Fast Aligning Connection Technology (FACT) automatically aligns crane components for fast, easy assembly
  • Crawler Drive Shafts: These eliminate the need to disconnect hydraulic systems for shipment—simplifying crawler removal and assembly
  • CraneStar: CraneSTAR is an asset management system that helps improve your profitability and reduce costs by remotely monitoring critical crane data. Visit www.cranestar.com for more information.
