- Company now has 24 Potain cranes in its fleet.
Kokar WIKA has purchased a further four Potain MCT 205 tower cranes over the past 12 months to strengthen its growing rental fleet. The cranes were all ordered through Multicrane Perkasa, Manitowoc’s exclusive dealer for Potain cranes in Indonesia. Prior to this latest order, Kokar WIKA had 20 Potain machines, including a further two MCT 205 units. The MCT 205 is a topless tower crane with a maximum capacity of 10 t and up to 65 m of jib.
Kokar WIKA’s decision to invest in more MCT 205 cranes was heavily influenced by the company’s positive experiences with the model on a range of earlier projects. These include the construction of the TransMart shopping mall in Sidoarjo, Kertajati International Airport in West Java, and the Wisma Atlet Kemayoran, the athletes’ village for the 2018 Asian Games.
