The new CC 78.1250-1 lattice boom crawler crane

Tadano introduces the CC 78.1250-1, the next generation of a 1250-ton capacity lattice boom crawler crane in its lineup. Building on the proven performance of its predecessor, the CC 68.1250-1, this newest model incorporates significant advancements in performance, safety, efficiency, and transportability.

Designed to meet the evolving demands of heavy lifting applications, including the growing wind power sector, the CC 78.1250-1 achieves a maximum hook height of 224,5 meters when it is equipped with a 15-meter fixed jib. In this configuration it can lift an outstanding 140 tonnes. To improve its stiffness, the width of the base crane was increased to 3.5 meters. Furthermore, the two available crawler shoe widths – 2.0 meters and 2.4 meters – can accommodate varying ground pressure requirements.

“The CC 78.1250-1 represents a significant step forward in Tadano’s crawler crane development,” says Andreas Hofmann, Executive Vice President of Research & Development. “Customer feedback played a crucial role in its design, ensuring that this crane delivers not only superior lifting capacity but also transport-optimized components and efficient assembly sequences.”

Tadano’s CC 78.1250-1 is designed to offer multiple redundancies maximizing uptime and enhancing safety. The crane features a dual-engine arrangement with an optimized hydraulic system, allowing for single-engine operation at reduced speeds. Flexible user-friendly interfaces and an optional dual CAN BUS system contribute to increased reliability and operational flexibility. Additionally, the optional auxiliary power unit enables cab systems, HVAC, and lighting to operate using a compact 17kW diesel engine, reducing fuel consumption and emissions during standby operation.

Safety and operator support
Tadano prioritizes safety, and the CC 78.1250-1 offers multiple features designed to enhance operator confidence and job site security. The crane is equipped with the Tadano Fall Protection System and incorporates protective access to the superstructure and the undercarriage including improved handrails, catwalks, and access ladders.
The cab design provides an expanded field of view, while an array of cameras and mirrors help the operator see the hoist drums and other blind spots around the crane.

For job sites with uneven terrain, an optional Pedestal Crane (PC) kit replaces the crawlers on the undercarriage with outriggers enabling precise leveling at three different outrigger bases – 12m x 12m, 14m x 14m, and 16m x 16m – offering compatibility with existing foundations. This capability enhances setup efficiency while reducing both time and environmental impact.

Sustainability and smart monitoring
The CC 78.1250-1 features the IC-1 control system, which is standard on all Tadano crawler cranes and well accepted by operators. The IC-1 also gives the operator real-time ground pressures on the rigging aids when erecting long boom systems. This system boosts efficiency with intuitive controls and precise configurations and provides essential information for safe and efficient operations.

The crane’s twin Mercedes-Benz engines are compatible with HVO fuel, reducing CO₂ emissions without sacrificing performance. Additionally, Tadano’s IC-1 Remote telematics solution enables real-time diagnostics and remote troubleshooting, minimizing downtime and optimizing fleet management.

Optimized transport and assembly
The CC 78.1250-1 has been designed for ease of transport, which includes accessible lifting points on components to make the assembly safe and efficient. Manufactured in Zweibrücken, a center of excellence for mobile cranes, the crane adheres to world-class safety standards and utilizes high-quality components from established partners.
In our ever-changing industry, Tadano remains committed to delivering lifting solutions that combine reliability, efficiency, and sustainability – ensuring customers can invest with confidence.
