Manitowoc introduces new Potain Igo M self-erecting crane at Batimat in Paris.
The crane offers multiple configurations for maximum versatility and efficiency on the jobsite.
The Igo M 24-19 is a perfect choice for new home construction or renovation projects.
The new Potain Igo M 24-19 will make its worldwide debut at the Batimat exhibition in Paris, France. The new crane replaces Potain’s best-selling Igo M 14 and joins the Igo MA 21 and Hup M 28-22 A in the Company’s range of mobile self-erecting cranes. These cranes are designed for new home construction and renovations and are perfectly suited for builders.
The Igo M 24-19 is very compact, measuring only 11.83 m in length in its folded position, allowing it to access narrow, restricted jobsites. There are three jib configuration options of 12.3 m, 21 m, and the full 24 m option, for greater versatility to adapt to jobsite requirements.
The Igo M 24-19 has a permanent ballast installed and offers three steering axle options for travel. The maximum capacity of the Igo M 24-19 is 1.8 t and will lift to 570 kg at its maximum jib length of 24 m. The height under hook is 19 m. Additionally, the crane can work in a raised jib position of 11° or 20° when more height under hook is needed.
The new crane benefits from the latest enhancements for Potain self-erecting cranes, including the following standard features:
Smart Set-Up – remote-controlled guidance for automatic folding/unfolding of the crane.
Potain Crane Control System (CCS) – maximizes lifting performance, improves operator ergonomics, and increases flexibility on the jobsite.
Drive Control – provides the operator with complete control and precision lifting on the jobsite.
Power Control – adaptable power supply.
Steering Axle – offers maximum maneuverability.
“At Potain, we are driven to deliver innovative solutions that fit the market, and our customer’s needs. The new Igo M 24-19 optimizes compactness, mobility, performance, and productivity for our customers to increase their return on investment,” said Rémi Deporte, self-erecting cranes product manager at Manitowoc.
With this new model, Potain is reaffirming its leadership in the mobile self-erecting crane segment. The crane is perfectly matched to builders’, carpenters’, and roofers’ needs for home construction and renovation.
