Is Sarens SGC 250 the world"s largest crane?
Engineer (UK) says: Sarensâ behemoth â the SGC-250 â was officially launched on November 9, 2018 at the Port of Ghent, Belgium, where it demonstrated its slewing and hoisting capabilities.
The SGC-250 can lift 5,000 tonnes and extend its main boom to 160m but #-Link-Snipped-# says its most unique feature is its ability to relocate, fully rigged on site, from one lifting position to another. According to the Belgian company, this âconstitutes a breakthrough for the entire global crane industryâ. The company adds that the crane has two sets of wheels: one for slewing 360° and one for travelling. The second set is hydraulically retractable and is pushed out whenever the crane needs to travel.
