Konecranes CXT has five sizes of frame up to 80 tonnes
Konecranes CXT, a durable and versatile crane with a compact design
The smart concept of Konecranes CXT Hoist combines efficiency in space with great reliability and promises a long service life. The CXT crane has a compact and robust design with extremely low headroom and small approximations to the ends, that fits practically any application. Its compact size and strength make it indispensable in any task of lifting partner. In addition, thanks to its advanced technology and innovative features, CXT crane is made to measure to fit the different needs of customers.
Standard cranes CXT can be attached to a beam unique bridge or girder bridge construction twin, a system of girder bridge unique fixed (monorail) or a construction under the tread. There are models of CXT truck crane girder bridge only with low height (up to 12.5 tons) or normal (up to 40 tons), clearance in addition to beam bridge double (up to 80 tons) trucks.
Although there are different configurations of truck, the most common account with two or even three cars in the same crane, so steel CXT wire rope hoists cranes maximize lift height and are easily adapted to different types of building. Konecranes CXT cranes are indispensable in any Assembly or industrial plant shop. With the most advanced technology for enhanced load, and versatility and ease of use accuracy, CXT crane is the leading crane industry interior operations medium and heavy cranes.
Long life cycle-short work cycle with Smart Features
There are many critical operations which have to be under constant control so that they go well in production facilities: materials arriving, pieces that move from one place to another and finished products coming out. One of these operations is, for example, the handling of materials with cranes. Cranes and employees form a combination that should operate so smoothly, safely and quickly as possible.
Thanks to its great experience and furthermore backed by a thorough knowledge of customer processes, Konecranes developed Smart Features: intelligence based on software that saves time and increases productivity and safety of the crane in the specific application.

Depending on the needs of the client, the CXT cranes can be equipped with standard features and Smart Features. With these features, Smart developed by Konecranes, duty cycle is much shorter. An operator with experience can operate any crane quickly and virtually anyone can use an intelligent crane quickly and accurately. Intelligent features contribute to making that almost anyone can be a good crane operator. These features speed up cargo handling and offer unprecedented security. Advanced functions, such as rolling control, positioning and the protected area make it possible a transfer of the load quickly and safely even if the operator is not a professional with lots of experience.
There is available a wide range of Smart features: Control of the rolling, positioning, protected areas, prevention against impact, idle, Microvelocidad, limits of work, sync, etc.
The speed in the right place
One of the innovative features developed by Konecranes are ASR frequency converters (Adaptive speed range / Adaptive lifting speed) and ESR (extended speed range / extended lifting speed); lifting speed is automatically adjusted according to the actual load of the wire rope hoist, i.e. lifting speed is faster with lighter loads than with heavier loads. In practice, this means faster operation with light loads and running more safe and smooth with heavy loads. While the majority of lighter industrial cranes use conventional control, with elevation of two speeds with a ratio of 4:1 or 6:1, Konecranes engineers have taken a step further to develop these frequency inverters. ASR technology provides a progressive speed control of elevation in the ratio 10:1. And ESR technology offers extremely fast lifting speeds thanks to more powerful engines, and provides a range of extended speed up to 37:1. ASR and ESR which allow the hoist to operate at a speed of highest rated lifting with light loads. This significantly reduces the charging cycle and waiting times.

Ergonomic and one-handed usability
After several studies and backed by a thorough knowledge of the specific needs of customers, Konecranes developed a new remote control for the CXT cranes, which is more ergonomic and usability with one hand. The main requirement was to ergonomics: create a radio transmitter that could be used with one hand has led to using a joystick that controls the movement of the crane movements. The new MiniJoystick for CXT cranes provides ergonomic advantages. With intuitive operation, it allows users to control crane with one hand, to move and position heavy precise and safe loads.
