Fassi presents a new XE model to the cranes in the middle-range lifting segment, distinguished by its excellent performance and remarkable power-to-weight ratio. Following the most recent presentation of the F545RA model to the market, Fassi continues to complete the XE range with the introduction of a new model to the medium-sized category.
A historic collaboration dating back almost thirty years, which has strengthened over time and is now pushing the Italian industrial group towards increasingly innovative horizons
For Fassi quality has always been a “must”, from the time its first cranes were created more than fifty years ago. Fassi cranes originated from design choices focused on excellence. Each prototype must pass strict tests before they are moved on to production. Finally, the automation of the production processes ensures compliance with the most stringent quality standards, guaranteeing the excellence of the finished product: Fassi’s “crane without compromise”.
Fassi today presents to the market the new models that represent the renewal of its small crane range. There are two models with a load moment capacity of between 6 and 7 tm – the F65B and the F70B. They are even more lightweight than the predecessor models that they replace and they use the new boom link system for improved performance.
New Fassi F545RA xe-dynamic model, 50tm crane suitable for 3-axle chassis
The Fassi F545RA xe-dynamic is the last model in the XE range. It is an all-new crane designed to complete the high capacity range between the F485RA xe-dynamic and the F560RA he-dynamic models. The new crane has been designed to build on the performance of the current smaller model in the XE range and take it further.
