Palfinger PCC 115.002 Crawler Cranes

GGR Group has today announced the arrival of two Palfinger PCC 115.002 crawler cranes, with one of these machines to be deployed onto one of the UK’s largest nuclear power projects.

With a maximum lifting capacity of 30 tonnes, the PCC 115.002 sets a new benchmark for strength, flexibility, and intelligent design in the compact crane market. Its six-section articulated knuckle boom and modular build allow the crane to be disassembled for easier transport and access to restricted spaces – a crucial advantage for complex infrastructure environments such as nuclear facilities.

The PCC 115.002 offers:

• Maximum outreach: 20.7m (main boom), extending to 33.3m with six-section jib
• Maximum hook height: 22.5m (main boom), reaching 36m with jib
• 360° continuous slewing
• 3.5-tonne hydraulic winch with 66m of rope (90m optional)
• Pick-and-carry capability for enhanced onsite versatility

This next-generation crawler crane is equipped with non-marking tracks and is powered by a Stage V diesel engine and optional 415V electric mains, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor lifting operations, even in environmentally sensitive or low-emission zones.

Standard features include:

• H-frame stabiliser system
• PALcom P7 full-colour radio remote control
• P-Fold assistance system for automated boom folding/unfolding
• Active Oscillation Suppression for reduced boom sway
• Paltronic P150 overload protection system
• Dual power system (diesel + electric)
• Hydraulic winch with rope tension and synchronisation control

Optional features include a two-man work basket, expanding the crane’s versatility even further.

Graeme Riley CEO of GGR Group commented “The purchase of these machines was secured through Palfinger GmbH Europe, with Hemmo Luijerink providing great support from initial discussions through to delivery. As part of the collaboration, specialist engineers from Palfinger’s Austrian HQ travelled to the UK to deliver technical, hands-on training to our team at GGR Group”.

He continued “We are really proud to bring the Palfinger PCC 115.002 to the UK market, it’s arrival represents not only a significant investment in the future of compact lifting technology but also our commitment to being the first to deliver cutting-edge lifting solutions for high profile projects across the UK.”
