Our Crane Sales Team recently visited the construction site where we have a Potain IGO50 Self Erecting Crane in Edinburgh on a minimum seven-month hire term.
The project is a residential development comprising of 82 apartments
with associated works, parking and landscaping. There will be two-bedroom, three-bedroom and four-bedroom residential units along with commercial access and estate roads.
The Potain IGO is ideal for a construction development like this as it can be maneuvered into tighter areas than a mobile crane or city tower crane. It also allows for less movements on site than other material handling solutions, like a telehandler, improving site safety the efficiency.
This Self Erecting Tower Crane provides a maximum capacity lift of 4,000kg out as far as 13m on the jib. At the end of the 40m jib a 1,000kg maximum capacity lift is possible. The Potain IGO50 is one of the most popular cranes on our Tower Crane Hire Fleet and we are always inundated with hire requests.

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. Held at Punchestown Racecourse, Ireland's biggest construction and plant machinery expo delivered on every front with record attendance, a buzzing atmosphere, and an incredible line-up of live machinery demonstrations and industry innovation all in the one space.
