Nippon Grove TMS 1600

The Nippon Grove TMS 1600 is a 16-ton class hydraulic truck-mounted crane that delivers compact lifting power and agility for lighter-duty applications in confined or urban spaces. The crane is equipped with a 3-section telescopic boom that extends from 9.3 to 23.5 meters using a synchronized hydraulic extension system. A 7.5-meter jib can be added with a fixed 10° offset, bringing the total maximum reach to 31 meters, offering extended working height and flexibility for overhead lifting.

In terms of lifting capacity, the crane handles 16 tons at a 3-meter radius using the 9.3-meter boom. Other capacities include 10.1 tons at 5 meters with the 16.4-meter boom and 6 tons at 7 meters on the fully extended 23.5-meter boom. When operating with jib, capacity reduces to 2.21 tons at 12 meters.

The boom elevates from -3° to 80°, reaching full lift in approximately 60 seconds. Boom extension takes 63 seconds to achieve the full 14.2-meter stroke. Both the main and auxiliary winches deliver hoisting speeds of up to 87 meters per minute. Slewing is driven by a radial piston-type motor, with a full 360° swing capability at 3.0 rpm.

Stability is provided by a 4.9-meter wide H-type outrigger system with hydraulic locking cylinders. The winch and boom hoist systems are equipped with automatic braking and holding valves to ensure load control and safety. The jib is a lattice-type, side-mounted system with dual support brackets.

The TMS1600 is mounted on a Nissan ZT 300 or KW 30M chassis and has a total vehicle weight of approximately 19,960 kg. It uses a gear-type three-pump hydraulic system and is equipped with standard safety devices including overload warning, load moment indicator, boom angle indicator, winch drum lock, and other critical safety systems.

Compact yet robust, the TMS1600 offers smooth hydraulic operation, precise load handling, and a well-balanced design that makes it ideal for projects where space is limited but reliable lifting performance is essential.
