Cropac Equipment is the proud owner of a new Potain Igo T 85 A tower crane, which it has just purchased at CONEXPO 2017. The Oakville, Ontario, Canada-based company celebrated the purchase of the 6 t (6.6 USt) self-erecting tower crane during a ceremony at the Manitowoc booth, which featured a champagne toast between Manitowoc Cranes and Cropac.

The Igo T 85 A features a slewing mechanism that helps operators improve accuracy. Ideal for small construction sites and tight areas, the crane’s variable height telescoping lattice mast is adjustable from 20 m (66 ft) to 23 m (75 ft).
