A CLASS OF ITS OWN - REDEFINED: CC 78-1250-1TADANO LAUNCHES NEW 1375 US-TONS CAPACITY CRAWLER CRANE

Tadano introduces the CC 78.1250-1, the next generation of a 1375-US tons capacity

lattice boom crawler crane in its lineup. Building on the proven performance of its

predecessor, the CC 68.1250-1, this newest model incorporates significant

advancements in performance, safety, efficiency, and transportability.

CC 78-1250-1

Designed to meet the evolving demands of heavy lifting applications, including the growing

wind power sector, the CC 78.1250-1 achieves a maximum hook height of 736.5 feet when it

is equipped with a 49.2-foot fixed jib. In this configuration, it can lift an outstanding 154.3 US-tons. To improve its stiffness, the width of the base crane was increased to 11.5 feet.

Furthermore, the two available crawler shoe widths – 6.6 feet and 7.9 feet – can

accommodate varying ground pressure requirements.

Advanced Design and Enhanced Performance

"The CC 78.1250-1 represents a significant step forward in Tadano's crawler crane

development," says Andreas Hofmann, Executive Vice President of Research & Development. "Customer feedback played a crucial role in its design, ensuring that this crane delivers not only superior lifting capacity but also transport-optimized components and efficient assembly sequences."

Tadano’s CC 78.1250-1 is designed to offer multiple redundancies, maximizing uptime and

enhancing safety. The crane features a dual-engine arrangement with an optimized hydraulic

system, allowing for single-engine operation at reduced speeds. Flexible user-friendly

interfaces and an optional dual CAN BUS system contribute to increased reliability and

operational flexibility. Additionally, the optional auxiliary power unit enables cab systems,

HVAC and lighting to operate using a compact 22.8 HP diesel engine, reducing fuel

consumption and emissions during standby operation.

Safety and Operator Support

Tadano prioritizes safety, and the CC 78.1250-1 offers multiple features designed to

enhance operator confidence and job site security. The crane is equipped with the Tadano

Fall Protection System and incorporates protective access to the superstructure and the

undercarriage, including improved handrails, catwalks, and access ladders.

The cab design provides an expanded field of view, while an array of cameras and mirrors

help the operator see the hoist drums and other blind spots around the crane.

Add Versatility with Outriggers

For job sites with uneven terrain, an optional Pedestal Crane (PC) kit replaces the crawlers

on the undercarriage with outriggers, enabling precise leveling at three different outrigger

bases – 39.4 ft x 39.4 ft, 45.9 ft x 45.9 ft, and 52.5 ft x 52.5 ft - offering compatibility with

existing foundations. This capability enhances setup efficiency while reducing both time and

environmental impact.

Sustainability and Smart Monitoring

The CC 78.1250-1 features the IC-1 control system, which is standard on all Tadano crawler

cranes and well-accepted by operators. The IC-1 also gives the operator real-time ground

pressures on the rigging aids when erecting long boom systems. This system boosts

efficiency with intuitive controls and precise configurations and provides essential information for safe and efficient operations.

The crane's twin Mercedes-Benz engines are compatible with HVO fuel, reducing CO₂

emissions without sacrificing performance. Additionally, Tadano’s IC-1 Remote telematics

solution enables real-time diagnostics and remote troubleshooting, minimizing downtime and optimizing fleet management.

Optimized Transport and Assembly

The CC 78.1250-1 has been designed for ease of transport, which includes accessible lifting

points on components to make the assembly safe and efficient. Manufactured in

Zweibrücken, a center of excellence for mobile cranes, the crane adheres to world-class

safety standards and utilizes high-quality components from established partners.

In our ever-changing industry, Tadano remains committed to delivering lifting solutions that

combine reliability, efficiency, and sustainability - ensuring customers can invest with

confidence.
