The C-series boosts productivity

The C-series is a productive lifting partner that will meet the

demands of applications lifting loads from as little as 63 kg,
all the way up to 5,000 kg. Its Core of Lifting components,
designed and manufactured by Konecranes, include a
purpose-built motor, controls and gearbox. The C-series
enhances the operator experience, boosts productivity
and increases long-term reliability, with minimal scheduled
maintenance.
