Close to our southern depot, we have two Self Erecting Tower Cranes in Northampton on a construction project.
Our two cranes, working side-by-side, are a Potain IGO50 and a Potain HDT80 Self Erecting Tower Crane. Both Pedestrian Operated Tower Cranes are extremely popular on our hire fleet due to the capacity that they offer and the fact that they can, in most cases, with be placed on construction sites with restricted space in a straightforward manner.
The Potain IGO50 on this timber frame construction project has a 40m jib. In its current set up it will offer a maximum lift at the end of the 40m jib of 1,000kg. There is a Height Under Hook (HUH) of 23.2m available.
Alongside it, the Potain HDT80 has a longer 45m jib and can provide 1,250kg at the jib end and a HUH of 32.2m.

A tower crane rising above a site tends to draw every eye, but the real story starts long before it arrives on site. It's this quiet groundwork that sets the stage for everything that follows.
Tower cranes are one of the most efficient lifting solutions available on construction sites, offering exceptional height, reach, and lifting capacity that few other machines can match. Unlike mobile cranes, they occupy a small footprint while still serving the entire site, making them ideal for congested urban locations.
Mantis Cranes had two brilliant days at ICE Expo 2026, and what an event it was.
