Hitachi-Sumitomo SCX900-1

The Hitachi-Sumitomo SCX900-1 is a hydraulic crawler crane designed to handle medium-to-large lifting tasks, with a maximum lifting capacity of 90 tons at a 4.0-meter working radius. The crane is equipped with a boom that starts at a basic length of 12.2 meters, extendable up to 60.95 meters, allowing for a broad range of lifting applications. Additionally, it supports an auxiliary jib that can be configured from 9.15 meters to 22.85 meters, resulting in a combined boom and jib length of 83.8 meters (60.95 + 22.85 meters).

The crane is powered by a Mitsubishi 6D24-TLE1 engine, which delivers a rated output of 184 kW (250 PS) at 2,000 rpm. This turbocharged diesel engine ensures reliable power for demanding lifting operations while maintaining fuel efficiency. The crane’s travel speed reaches up to 1.8 km/h, and it offers a gradeability of 30%, providing adequate maneuverability on uneven terrains.

The SCX900-1 features a winch system that supports a front and rear drum speed of 120 meters per minute in high mode, with boom hoisting speeds ranging from 51 meters per minute for precise load control. The swing speed is rated at 2.9 rpm, allowing for steady and controlled rotation.

The crane’s ground contact pressure is approximately 89 kPa, ensuring stability during lifting tasks. The overall operating weight is around 85 tons when configured with the basic boom and a 90-ton hook block, providing a solid foundation for safe and efficient lifting.

The SCX900-1 is designed for construction, infrastructure, and industrial projects, offering versatility with various boom configurations and a powerful engine. Its advanced lifting capabilities, efficient operation, and robust build make it a reliable choice for heavy lifting requirements.
