See image from one of our recent jobs lifting this farm silo with our AT20 onto the back of a truck for relocation. Below is a list of reasons why you might consider a franna for similar work.
- Lifting and Manoeuvring: Franna cranes, with capacities often ranging from 20 to 40 tonnes, can safely lift farm or industrial silos (which can be quite heavy, but are also often made from thin, delicate material requiring careful handling). They can lift the silo off its foundation or off a previous transport vehicle.
- Loading onto a Truck: The Franna is used to hoist the silo and then precisely lower and position it onto the bed of a heavy haulage truck or trailer for relocation.
- Pick and Carry: For moving a silo a shorter distance on-site, a Franna is excellent because it can lift the load and then travel with it suspended (depending on silo size of course), eliminating the need to set the silo down and re-rig a different crane or rely on a truck for movement within the work area.
- Quick Setup: Unlike some other large cranes, Franna cranes do not require outriggers (stabilizing legs), meaning they can be set up and operational very quickly, which speeds up the lifting process.
