Competitive advantage features

Being able to work in metro areas during the night or early mornings requires using equipment that is in line with the utmost stringent pollution and emissions levels, other than respecting noise limitations. HIAB’s offer is expanding into the next generation of electric powered units, this is a priority as we are able to anticipate regulations and demands from local authorities to meet higher standards in terms of emission and noise levels. Investing in research and technologies helps our customers be ahead of the curve.

CYCLONE Tank

Reduce your operating costs

The efficient CYCLONE tank system runs on less oil, reducing purchases during the whole crane's life. 

More payload available

Compact CYCLONE tank excels in performance and provides additional space on the truck, maximizing payload capacity thanks to its efficient oil usage.

ePTO

Work in silence, work at zero emissions

The ePTO is our Electric Power Take Off, an electro-hydraulic power pack for cranes. It sits alongside the traditional engine-driven system, enabling operators to work with the truck engine switched off, yet still do all the same jobs as usual. The ePTO delivers numerous advantages, both environmental and economic. For example, 60–70% lower energy consumption, 70% lower operating costs, and 30% lower noise level.

The electrified R-HiPro 112e

Silent Movement

The R-HiPro 112e is an electrically Lithium Ion powered solution. Powering the unit of the crane base ensures a silent movement of the crane along the truck's bed, bringing the crane closer to where it is needed for the loading and lifting operations. The possibility to work within city noise levels, and emissions free certifies this product as an environmentally friendly product enabling business where traditional solutions would be instead cut out.

Efficiency features

At HIAB we make a personal commitment to enhance and optimize the efficiency during all the cycles related to your activity. Technology innovations are essential in making work life easier and more efficient, and for that reason, we are able to offer a wide range of loader cranes that match or exceed your daily work needs.

SAM: Semi Automatic Motion

Avoiding damage, avoids harmful cost 

Being busy at worksites, in addition to trying to get things done fastly for your customers, often means making mistakes. HIAB’S loader cranes technology and the many smart solutions help reduce human-driven errors and compensate for and avoid making damages.

The Semi Automatic Motion (SAM) minimizes risks to the crane, track, and surroundings, ensuring safe and speedy operations with easy use. 

RLS: Rapid Lock System

The flexible HIAB Rapid Lock System (RLS) makes it faster and easier to exchange different crane attachments. The operator simply maneuvers the crane arm into the chosen accessory, where HIAB’s advanced electrohydraulic locking function ensures quick, secure coupling. In addition to boosting productivity, RLS improves safety as there is no need for the operator to climb the vehicle and manually secure the attachment. 

SAF: Semi Automatic Folding

Getting things done faster 

Repetitive actions can be automated and made faster through the use of technology while reducing stress at the operator level.

The Semi-Automatic Folding [SAF], option available for the HiDuo and HiPro controlled cranes, with a touch of a few levers from the remote control, helps open and close the crane to its desired position at a faster pace than having to do all the operation manually, also reducing the risk of damages or accidentally not doing it well.

LSS-V: Load Stability System

Keeping your business running, all the time 

HIAB is synonymous with "uptime" and our commitment is to deliver durable products and protective control systems.

The Load Stability System-Vertical [LSS-V] is a clear example of how reducing the stress on the structure of the crane ensures longevity and minimizes damage risks to the working site or the load, thereby reducing downtime's negative impacts.

High Seat Layout

The best way to keep an excellent worksite overview 

The new optional high seat layout gives you the possibility to have an excellent overview of the working area, allowing the lifting operations to be done in full safety and keeping tight control over the crane’s movements.

Available for selected light and medium-range loader cranes.

Joystick Control

Operations made intuitive

The joystick control commands allow the operators to handle the lifting operation with simple and intuitive movements of the hand, becoming precise and soft movements of the crane.

Available for selected light and medium-range loader cranes.

CTC: Crane Tip Control

Getting the best results from every skill level of driver

HIAB is aware that being able to train drivers takes time, and many times companies can't retain them over time. Technology provides a solution. The possibility to manage the crane through the advanced control systems enable efficient resource management for both experienced operators and new employees that needs to be operative without losing too much time. Among the many systems available is the CTC, Crane Tip Control, which facilitates the most complex works.

CTC: Crane Tip Control

Precise load direction while intelligently assisting operators

CTC helps drive the load in the right direction, whereas the intelligence of the control system helps interpret the lever movements and reduces the number of actions on them, bringing the load where it is needed.

The complex actions on the levers that can be made by the more expert drivers are instead assisted for those needing more support during this action.

Safety features

Image

Safety: SAF

Semi Automatic Folding [SAF] assists during the closing of the cane booms and extensions by the control system avoids an accidental hitting of crane’s parts against the truck.

Image

Safety: CTC

The Crane Tip Control [CTC] assists the drivers by reducing the number of actions they have to make on the remote levers, increasing the safety of the load’s positioning, while assuring a more fluid and smooth movement.

Image

Safety: OPS

The Operator Protection System [OPS] that allows to cut off an area where the crane will not move so let the operator work in complete safety.

Image

Safety: BDA

The Boom Deployment Assistant [BDA] monitors the angle and position of the boom during folding/unfolding, preventing the operator from making any movement that might damage the crane.

Image

Liability and personnel cost reductions

The implications of using safe equipment cover a wide spectrum of benefits, much more than what safety might even mean at a first glimpse.

Products that can be used by different skilled level of operators come in handy when managing resources that come and go, or when having to do a job that is being done under pressure of time.
