M E B crane hire is a family-owned Telford based crane and transport company that offers service and workmanship to the highest professional and safety standards. They work within a variety of sectors that includes construction, both civils and general, industrial, plant installation, demolition, container movements, and compound installation to name a few. M E B operates a modern and well-maintained fleet. Over several years they have purchased a variety of Böcker cranes ranging from the crawler crane to the truck cranes AK 42 and AK 46 with their low outrigger loadings, variable outrigger positioning, superb radio-controlled operating system including on demand height- and range restrictions, as well as the “virtual wall” function.
Mark Bishop of M E B Crane Hire said: “Today we are the proud owners of the new generation Böcker AK 42, which has a lifting capacity of 6 t with quick set up times and low outrigger and axel loadings. It comes with variable outrigger positioning for those tight spaces and offers an extension length of up to 42 m with a combination of a main boom at 27.5 m and a 14.4 m hydraulic extendible jib. The AK 42 truck crane also has the new innovative mast system that allows the main mast to be set at 90 degrees to the chassis and the jib horizontal to the crane (tower crane mode). Plus, we benefit from a state-of-the-art radio remote control, with all the safety and zoning systems that you expect from Böcker. We know this is going to be a popular, versatile addition to our crane fleet.“
