Altec Launches New Riding Seat Cranes with Updated Controls
Birmingham, AL, July 13, 2021 – Altec is excited to announce the release of the AC40E-152S and AC45E-127S riding seat cranes with updated E-Series controls.
Developed from customer feedback, this next generation of cranes comes with all-new world-class electric controls, updates to the operator interface, added operator creature comforts and improved dependability.
“Our team designed these updated controls to give crane operators a better experience and more confidence while in the seat, resulting in more efficient work and less discomfort after a long day on the job,” said Zak Hilliard, Altec Cranes Market Manager.
The E-series cranes have a redesigned gearbox, rotation bearing and controls system. As a result, the starts, stops and glide swing are smooth. Overall, both better meterability and improved swing performance increase operator confidence, control and jobsite productivity.
The AC40E-152S and AC45E-127S cranes provide the following features:
- Altec LMAP (Load Moment & Area Protection) System with Smart-Zone Rating functionality for safe asymmetric outrigger setups
- Dual Entry 20° Tilt Cab with Heater and A/C
- Advanced E-series Electric over hydraulic unit controls
- Altec AXIS Service Interface for enhanced calibration, diagnostics and troubleshooting
As with all Altec products, the E-series cranes are backed by the industry’s leading national support network and warranty protection.
