In February we erected a Potain IGO50 on a Student Accommodation Project in Leeds.
The Self Erecting Tower Crane is due to be on site for a Tower Crane Hire period of at least six months. The project involves the construction of a steel frame building. When finished it will provide a five-level student residential building housing 130 studio flats for student accommodation, associated reception area, management office, gymnasium, study room, landscaping and access from ground level.

The Pedestrian Operated Tower Crane is a Potain IGO50, easily of the most popular cranes that we offer on our Tower Crane Hire Fleet. This Potain IGO was configured with a 40m jib, providing a maximum lift of 1,000kg at the end of that jib. It can supply a maximum load capacity of 4,000kg out as far as 13m on the jib. The hook height available is 23.2m.

Tower cranes are essential to a broad range of building projects, from healthcare and education through to commercial and residential developments. At Mantis Cranes, our extensive fleet provides lifting solutions for every type of site, whether it's a hospital, nursing home, college, hotel, or office block.
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.
