Another very important field of Ormig's production
is covered by the lattice boom cranes. Towards end of
'50 years was fabricated the first crane equipped with
lattice boom, providing 360 degrees rotation and mechanical
outriggers: the model 10tg with 70 tonnes capacity.
One of the most interesting crane of this type was the
200tg, 16 tonnes capacity, equipped with "elbow
joint" outriggers, a very new fitting which came
out as another Ormig patent.
The system consists of a kinematics design which gives
a tensile and compressive stress only to the beams of
connection between frame and outriggers plates; it assures
a remarkable rigidity of the structure.
Afterwards, cranes having capacity from 35 up to 80
tonnes were manufactured; the model 50tg - 50 tonnes
capacity, 60 m-long boom - met a great interest. |

An hydraulic kinematics system, under Ormig patent,
was an innovating project in these cranes. It allowed
the boom raising in a perfect balanced way being the
stress given to the lifting ropes equal. An important
feature of such cranes was one cab only offering central
controls position thus allowing the use of just one
operator either for the crane work or travel. These
types of cranes shared the industrial development of
those years in the building up of very important factories.
At the beginning of '70 years two new models were available
for Ports and big assemblies works: model 1200tg, 100
tonnes capacity, 72-m-long boom and 5 axles carrier,
crane mentioned in the Italian Enciclopaedia Treccani
as example of vehicle for site operation, and model
1750tg, 150 tonnes capacity, 94-m-long and 6 axles carrier.
Such crane improvements led to the Harbour Mobile Cranes
for loading/unloading from vessels of containers, bulk
cargo. etc., still under production.
The model which is meeting the best interest is 4535PTM
having a capacity of 45 tonnes at 35 m outreach.
At beginning of '90 years Ormig have also manufactured
a lattice boom crane with 200 tonnes capacity, model
2006TR. |
