Davis Crane Group has served the hoisting needs of Texas contractors and businesses for more than 60 years.
It has divisions all over the Lone Star State, and the Goins Crane Service office in Abilene will be the first home for a new Tadano AC 7.450-1.
This 7-axle all-terrain crane boasts a 262.5-ft. main boom and compact carrier length, along with many quality features like IC-1, Sideways Superlift System (SSL) and Surround View. Davis' new 500-ton powerhouse will start out with a data center project in West Texas, but it is also ideal for wind turbines, bridges and other infrastructure.
"We're excited to continue growing our partnership with Tadano and add the AC 7.450-1 to our fleet," said Dennis Davis, president and CEO of Davis Crane Group. They've been great to work with, and we've been impressed with both the equipment and their team. We're looking forward to putting this crane to work with our Goins Crane Service team and seeing what it can do for our customers across West Texas."
"We are very excited that Davis Crane Group is adding its first AC 7.450-1," Tadano America Regional Business Manager Todd Elkins said. "This crane is an outstanding machine, and it will be the perfect blend of power, reach and job versatility for Davis' expansive customer base across Texas and beyond."
At only 55.9 ft. in total length and with a maximum outrigger base of 27.8 ft., the AC 7.450-1 has amazing lifting power in a compact frame, and it delivers outstanding performance both with and without SSL. The AC 7.450-1 is an exceptional solution for high-reach assemblies, tower crane erection and heavy industrial lifts.
"With its lifting capacity, long reach and versatility, the AC 7.450-1 strengthens our ability to support heavier, more demanding projects across our customer base," said Wes Dowd, chief operating officer at Davis Crane Group And the technology of this crane is impressive, from flexible road configurations to intelligent control software. We trust Tadano cranes. They are just great machines; you hear that from everybody. And whatever they can do to help us, they're always there to help."
