Because of this, the team came up with something very special for the handover and kicked off an Open House Day at the new Tadano Oceania headquarters in the Lytton suburb of Brisbane on July 27th, with the whole thing being organized around the presentation of the AC 1000-9. In addition to the team from LCR Group, the day was attended by business partners, senior industry representatives, and journalists attended this event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNeedless to say, that was a big day for us. Not just because we put the very first Demag AC 1000-9 in Australia into operation, but also because we are now able to offer our customers even better performance with heavy-load lifts,\u201d highlights LCR Group Executive GM Cranes and Transport Operation- Peter Koschel. Tadano Heavy Lift Sales Manager \u2013 Howard Dean wholeheartedly agrees: \u201cWith its powerful performance characteristics and enormous lifting capacity, the AC 1000-9 will energetically contribute to many projects that are important to the Australian economy and help us keep pushing our country forward.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After all, the AC 1000-9 is truly a superlative crane in the 1,200-tonne capacity class: With the 50-meter main boom that comes as standard and the optional luffing jib, the crane reaches a maximum system length of 163.3 meters, which makes it unbeatable when it comes to large construction projects. It is also optionally available with a 100-meter main boom that is unrivalled worldwide \u2013 no other all-terrain crane offers a longer main boom! And when it comes to the heaviest loads out there, the Demag AC 1000-9 is a true workhorse that refuses to give up even when handling large weights. The standard star-type outriggers, which reduce system deformation noticeably and accordingly provide for extraordinary stability at larger lifting capacities, play a crucial role in this.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tadano.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2025\/03\/image-109-1024x683.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1960\" style=\"width:1024px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tadano.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2025\/03\/image-109-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.tadano.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2025\/03\/image-109-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.tadano.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2025\/03\/image-109-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/www.tadano.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2025\/03\/image-109-1536x1024.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.tadano.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2025\/03\/image-109-2048x1365.png 2048w, https:\/\/www.tadano.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2025\/03\/image-109-350x233.png 350w, https:\/\/www.tadano.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2025\/03\/image-109-280x187.png 280w, https:\/\/www.tadano.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2025\/03\/image-109-560x373.png 560w, https:\/\/www.tadano.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2025\/03\/image-109-1620x1080.png 1620w, https:\/\/www.tadano.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2025\/03\/image-109-1200x800.png 1200w, https:\/\/www.tadano.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2025\/03\/image-109-335x223.png 335w, https:\/\/www.tadano.com\/asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2025\/03\/image-109-670x447.png 670w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\">Brisbane, Australia \u2013 August 17, 2021<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1962,"parent":0,"template":"","news_topics":[26],"class_list":["post-1959","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","news_topics-handover"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
