Product Description

The Hitachi KH1000 crawler crane is engineered for heavy lifting and is capable of handling demanding construction projects with its high-performance specifications. It has a maximum rated lifting capacity of 180,000 kg (396,800 lb) at an 8.1-meter (26’7″) working radius, making it one of the most powerful cranes in its class. The crane offers versatility through its dual boom configurations: 36 meters (118’1″) for heavy-duty operations and 39 meters (127’11”) for light-duty applications.

The crane features high-speed hoisting capabilities, with the main hoist drum achieving speeds of up to 85 meters/min (278.9 ft/min), while the auxiliary hoist drum matches these speeds, ensuring that the crane can quickly manage even the heaviest loads. Both hoists are equipped with 28 mm (1.10″) diameter rope, providing the necessary strength and durability for long-term, high-demand usage.

Its swing speed of 0.5 min⁻¹ (0 to 0.5 rpm) allows for precise control during lifting operations, while the travel speed ranges between 0 to 0.47 km/h (0 to 0.29 mph), giving the crane the flexibility to reposition when necessary without sacrificing stability. The ground pressure of 1.3 bar (18.49 psi) ensures stable operations across various ground conditions.

This crane is powered by an Isuzu 12PB1 diesel engine, delivering a rated output of 199 kW (270 PS) at 2,000 rpm, ensuring consistent power for hoisting, slewing, and traveling functions. With an operating weight of 260,000 kg (573,200 lb), including 200,000 kg (440,900 lb) of capacity hook, 60,000 kg (132,000 lb) of counterweight, and 76,000 kg (167,600 lb) of tail weight, the KH1000 is designed for stability and safe operation even in demanding conditions.

The tail weight of 70,000 kg (154,300 lb) and 14.00-24-20PR double tires add to its operational robustness, making the Hitachi KH1000 a highly reliable choice for projects requiring significant lifting power and operational precision. This crane is ideal for applications in heavy industrial, infrastructure, and energy sectors, where both strength and versatility are paramount.
