June 25, 2014 - Scott Powerline has added a 130-ton Tadano Mantis GTC-1200 telescopic boom crawler crane to its rental fleet. The crane was designed to meet the demands of the power transmission, bridge and civil, and foundation construction markets. The new GTC-1200 is expected to join Scott Powerline's fleet in November 2014 and will be available for rental, RPO, or sale.

The crane's design project was managed by the Tadano Mantis engineering team but featured collaboration with Tadano Ltd. and Tadano Faun Gmbh. Its design includes a full-power, round boom with two extension modes, HELLO-NET telematics, the Tadano AML-C load moment system, and integration of hydraulic cylinders, winches, and jib systems from the other Tadano Group companies.

 

The GTC-1200 is powered by a Cummins Tier 4f, QSL9 diesel engine rated 350 hp @ 2100 rpm. The load-sensing, power-controlled hydraulic system optimizes the hydraulic output to the diesel engine power output for highly efficient operation and control; the swing system is controlled by a separate closed loop hydrostatic transmission for superior swing performance. The travel system features 2-speed track drives with maximum speeds of 1.6 mph and a maximum unladen gradability of 52%.

 

"We've proudly and successfully marketed the Mantis crane line for many years and have assisted in the introduction of several new models during that time," said Tom Scott Jr., president and CEO of Scott Powerline. "My sales team and I are very excited about the GTC-1200 and are pleased to offer it in our rental fleet." 

 

Scott Powerline is the authorized sales and service distributor for Mantis cranes throughout most of the south central and southeastern Unitd States.
