Link-Belt Preparing for Bauma 2016
LEXINGTON, Ky. (February 15, 2016) – Preparations are under way for Link-Belt Construction
Equipment’s departure for Bauma 2016; held April 11 - 17 in Munich, Germany. Bauma 2016 marks the
31st edition of the world’s leading trade fair for construction machinery. Link-Belt’s RTC-80150 Series II,
new 100RT, new TCC-1400 and all-new HTT-86110 will proudly be displayed at booth number F903/3.
RTC-80150 Series II
The 135-mt (150-ton) RTC-80150 Series II rough terrain crane features a six-section, pin and
latch boom with a maximum tip height of 94.8 m (311 ft.), that has superior load telescoping capability
and only five boom extend modes. Powering the RTC-80150 Series II is the 261 kW (350 hp) Cummins
QSL 8.9L with a Tier 3/Stage IIIA engine, and for North American market, a 257 kW (345 hp) Tier
4f/Stage IV engine is also available. Like all 6-wheel rough terrain cranes built by Link-Belt, the RTC80150 Series II will transport with two overflow loads and assemble in less than an hour without
assistance from a helper crane. A new camera package enhances on-board site monitoring and includes
a backup camera, a camera located on the right side of the upper frame, one for the main winch as well
as one for the auxiliary winch.
100RT
The all-new 90-mt (100-ton) 100RT rough terrain crane features a maximum tip height of 79.8 m
(261.7 ft.). A three piece bi-fold, on-board fly with an integrated 3.0 m (10 ft.) section is available and has
one load, two line lift procedures. Operation of the 100RT is easy with only four boom extend modes and
the ability to telescope under load. For both engine versions, Tier 3/Stage IIIA and Tier 4f/Stage IV, under
the hood is a 201 kW (270 hp) Cummins QSB 6.7L with unrivaled engine access. A centralized pressure
check and grease bank located near the cab allows an operator to monitor multiple pressure and fluid
workings. Another unique feature includes LED working lights on all four outrigger beams. Once on deck,
routine checks on powertrain components and fluid levels are a snap with large swing-out doors and LED
lighting that reveals the entire electrical compartments.
TCC-1400
The 127-mt (140-ton) TCC-1400 will boast the longest boom length for a telecrawler in this
tonnage class. A six-section power, pin and latch boom measures 59.5 m (195.4 ft.) and an on-board
three-piece bi-fold lattice fly will give the crane a maximum tip height of 78.9 m (259 ft.). New features
found on the TCC-1400 include an electronic inclinometer providing digital readout of list angle and a new
auto-idle feature that provides operator selectable ranges for improved fuel economy. The auto-idle
feature automatically reduces engine RPMs to idle speeds if no function is used for ten seconds, and
resumes preset RPMs once any function is re-engaged by the operator.
The TCC-1400 offers an impressive capacity chart at radius that rivals lattice crawler cranes with
a similar base rating. The 1400 comes standard equipped with main boom list capacities up to four
degrees.
HTT-86110
Link-Belt will be introducing for the first time, its all-new HTT-86110. The HTT-86110, telescopic
truck terrain crane features simple, all-wheel steer capability for optimum crane maneuverability in
congested spaces. Steerable rear axles with super single tires are what make the HTT-86110 so agile
and with four steering modes—independent front, independent rear, combination, and diagonal, this
crane can move in and around jobsites with ease. The HTT-86110 features a 50 m (164 ft.) main boom
that outreaches truck crane competition and challenges European-built all terrain cranes in its tonnage
class. The HTT-86110’s turning radius is less than 8.3 m (27.25 ft.) from the centerline of the tire; this is
comparable or better than similar 4-axle all-terrain cranes. A new efficient and low effort, on board 3 piece
fly pinning design is focused on ease of assembly and disassembly.
Link-Belt Construction Equipment Company, with headquarters in Lexington, Kentucky, USA, is a
leader in the design and manufacture of telescopic boom and lattice boom cranes for the construction
industry worldwide.
