Yongmao STL1460C

The Yongmao STL1460C is a heavy-duty 64-tonne capacity luffing jib tower crane, designed for challenging urban construction environments, particularly high-rise and steel structure projects. It was unveiled at Bauma China 2014 alongside Yongmao’s 100-tonne STT2200 flat-top model, and the displayed unit was sold to Tat Hong, a major crane rental company.

With a maximum jib length of 70 m, the STL1460C is capable of lifting 6.3 tonnes at its tip, making it highly efficient for lifting operations at extended reaches. The crane can operate with a free-standing height of up to 60 m when configured with the full 70 m jib, providing an optimal balance between reach and height for mid to high-rise applications.

A key feature of the STL1460C is its diesel-powered system, signified by the “C” in its model name. It uses a hydraulic power pack driven by a robust 360 kW Deutz engine, allowing off-grid operation and flexible deployment on job sites where electric power may be limited or unavailable. This enhances the crane’s usability in remote or infrastructure-heavy zones.

The crane’s hoisting mechanism includes options such as the 4160LYS320 (up to 117 m/min with 32 t), and the slewing system allows for a wide ±85° luffing motion achieved in just 3 minutes. The internal climbing frame design and mast configurations (H201F and H200F2) allow the STL1460C to adapt for both internal and external climbing installations, with modular componentry for simplified logistics and on-site assembly.

Overall, the STL1460C represents a robust, high-performance solution in the large-capacity luffing jib tower crane segment, combining advanced lifting performance, mobility, and independent diesel operation suited for demanding project requirements.
