Potain unveils Evy self-erecting line

Potain announced a brand-new self-erecting crane, the Evy 30-23 4-tonne (4.4-ton).

The crane is designed for home construction and residential building construction up to three stories in height.

The Evy 30-23 4 t is specifically engineered for home construction and residential building construction of up to three stories in height. The crane offers a simple setup procedure and requires less manual operation than similar cranes. It boasts a 4.4-ton maximum capacity and 1.1-ton capacity from the tip of its 98.4-foot (30 meter) jib, enabling precise handling of heavy loads within an extensive radius.

“At Potain, we are driven to deliver innovative solutions that empower our customers,” said Rémi Deporte, product manager for self-erecting cranes at Potain. “The Evy 30-23 4 t represents a significant milestone in our commitment to efficiency and ease of use in the construction industry.”

Variable jib positions of 10, 20, or 30 degrees deliver an 115-foot (35 meter) maximum height under hook with a 30-degree raised jib. The jib can also be hydraulically folded so that it is just 49.2 feet (15 meters) long and can be shortened to 79 feet (24 meters) if required. It also includes a three-phase power system and permanent four-fall reeving.

The Evy 30-23 4 t is also equipped with the CCS Crane Control System, Smart Set-up, Power Control and Drive Control, providing operators with control and precision on the jobsite. 

This new model marks the debut of the Evy range, the latest generation of Potain self-erecting cranes, designed using the Voice of the Customer product development process, as well as complying with the updated European Safety Standard EN 14439 for tower cranes.
