Manitowac 3900 Crane

This crane is one of the most popular ever manufactured by Manitowac. Capable of lifting 140 tons, it features the patented VICON® (Variable Independent Control) system. This technology provides the operator with stepless variable power transmission for major machine functions. VICON® technology is also utilized in the power lowering system, providing the operator with more controlled lowering.

The crane is shown walking down the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway holding a 45M vibratory hammer made by PVE with the associated rear mounted power pack. The power pack can be mounted on the rear of the crane, this makes a very transportable

solution for use of Vibro Hammers and the separate power packs, which usually need to be left on the ground and lifted from location to location with the hammer. This crane was installing sheet piles with the vibro hammer.
