Demag CC 8800 Specifications

Introduced in 2001, the 1250-ton Demag CC 8800 crawler crane has a maximum boom length of 216 metres and can be operated in a working range of from 9 metres to 154 metres. Examples from its capacity chart given by Demag include the ability to upright columns weighing 400 tonnes and measuring over 100 metres in length.

An important feature of the crane is the fact that no transport components are wider than 3.5 metres or higher than 4 metres when loaded on a trailer. Weights of individual components are kept within 40 tonnes. Other features include identical crawlers, (ie there is no “left” or “right” crawler) and a new design that squeezes dirt and mud out of the tracks during travel.
