Four of our UNIC spider cranes have been sold in Scandinavia. Kranentreprenøren, based outside Norway’s capital city Oslo, has taken delivery of two URW 295s, one URW 547 and a URW 706.
Our dealer in Norway, Knutsen Maskin AS, secured the deal at Bauma 2016.
All new cranes come with with diesel engines, 400v system for dual power and radio remote control. The two larger machines also have a working area limiter for the slewing, which make it ideal for working safely in places such as power plants.
Anders Kiel, of Knutsen Maskin, said: “It’s delightful to see Odd Moen, general manager at Kranentreprenøren, coming back buying four additional cranes only one year after he bought a URW 547. For us this is a proof that we are working in the right direction. Both the cranes and the market for mini cranes in Norway are getting better and better.”
