Kato NK-200H-v2

The Kato NK-200H-v2 is a robust and versatile 20-ton hydraulic truck crane optimized for performance in both urban development and mid-scale construction. The crane operates on a 6×4 commercial chassis, with options including Mitsubishi’s KC-KV207M or Nissan Diesel’s KC-KW460MN platforms, each paired with powerful diesel engines delivering 240 PS (Mitsubishi 6D16T) or 235 PS (Nissan FE6) for efficient road travel and crane operation.

The NK-200H-v2’s telescoping boom spans from 8.0 meters up to 31.0 meters, constructed from high-tensile steel in a fully hydraulic configuration. An optional jib adds an additional 8.0 meters, bringing the maximum lifting height to 39.0 meters when including the offsetable jib. The main boom allows safe and effective lifting with rated capacities such as 20,000 kg at 3.5 m with a 10.0 m boom (7-part line), and 3,000 kg with the jib deployed.

The boom elevation range is from -3° to 80°, raised in 48 seconds via a hydraulic cylinder. Swing operation is fully powered by an oil motor with planetary gear and free lock option, allowing 360° continuous rotation at 2.6 rpm.

Hoisting operations are driven by twin winches powered by high-torque motors, equipped with automatic brake systems. The high-speed winch achieves up to 75.7 m/min at 4th layer with 4-part reeving, and 195.0 m/min with 2-part reeving. The oil hydraulic system is equipped with four high-efficiency gear pumps and includes a 380-liter oil tank.

The crane also features fully automatic outrigger deployment and leveling, using four H-type hydraulic outriggers capable of achieving a 6,100 mm maximum spread. The cab is fitted with safety-enhancing features such as the ACS computer system, over-wind prevention, drum lock, automatic moment limiter, and ergonomic controls.

Dimensionally, the overall vehicle length is 11,930 mm, with a height of 3,300 mm and width of 2,490 mm. The GVW is listed at 23,590 kg with balanced axle loads (6,555 kg front and 17,035 kg rear). Tires are 11.00-20-16PR with 10.00-20-14PR spare, giving the vehicle on-road compatibility.

The NK-200H-v2 merges powerful lifting capacity, efficient control systems, and urban travel suitability in a compact, emission-compliant crane format ideal for infrastructure, commercial building, and maintenance works.
