Rail Industry Component:
Tadano Mantis Corp.: Track Panel Crane

This hydraulic crane, for handling track panels in transit applications, handles 10-ton panels at a 40-foot radius at zero degrees elevation for work both underground and on elevated structures. The crane's light weight keeps wheel loads at a minimum. Options include tool circuit, magnet, load moment indicators and spreader beams. A double-extending boom and 6-foot, 5-inch tail swing make the machine ideal for working in tight quarters, the company says.
