Tele-Mast Straddle Crane Learns to Drive by GPS

Jan. 17, 2018
Air Technical Industries' straddle crane ranges in size from small to large to humongous, depending on the customers requirements.

Air Technical Industries announces the development of a Tele-Mast Straddle mobile gantry crane for indoor/outdoor use. When used outdoors, the 4 telescopic legs raise the crane up to 30 ft high for stacking containers or other large items, lifting over them to maximize storage space, or for loading and unloading trucks. When used indoors, the Tele-Mast lowers the crane's overall height for in-building applications. It has a very narrow design to maximize usable span while maintaining a narrow overall width for passing through overhead doors. It ranges in size from small to large to humongous, depending on the customers requirements.
