Raimondi targets US market with TRT 55US rough terrain crane
10 February 2026
Italian crane maker Raimondi will use the ConExpo 2026 trade show as the stage for the North American debut of the TRT 55US rough terrain crane, marking the first product launch under the newly established Raimondi North America organization.
Raimondi Terex Rough Terrain is set to present the TRT 55US, engineered primarily for the North American markets.
The 55 US ton (50 tonne) class crane is said to be engineered for North American operating conditions, regulations and jobsite demands. Designed and developed in Italy by the Terex Rough Terrain engineering team, TRT 55US incorporates customer feedback from the US market and builds on the Terex rough terrain range now part of the Raimondi Group portfolio.
Raimondi North America, led by Andreas Ernst, president, was created to strengthen the group’s presence in the US market and support long-term growth across rough terrain and tower crane segments. The TRT 55US is the first product introduction tied directly to that strategy.
The crane is designed to offer a compact transport-friendly design. It has a redesigned operator cab and an additional jib configuration aimed at improving versatility across energy, infrastructure and industrial construction applications.
With a rated lifting capacity of 55 US tons (50 tonnes), the TRT 55US offers a maximum main boom tip height of 130 feet ( metres) and can have a 26.25 foot ( metre) jib to extend maximum tip height to 157.5 feet ( metres). Maximum jib length is 122.7 feet ( metres).
With a rated lifting capacity of 55 tons, the TRT 55US offers a maximum main boom tip height of 130 feet.
A key feature carried over from Terex is the three-mode telescoping boom system, including Proportional Telescoping Boom mode, which is designed to simplify operator workflows and improve control during lifts. The crane also incorporates optimized off-road mobility, enhanced stability and improved load chart performance across the full working radius, the company said.
Advanced control and monitoring systems are central to the new model. TEOS and T-Link technologies support crane control, diagnostics and operational monitoring, while the integration of IdeaLift allows for increased jobsite flexibility by maximizing load charts through asymmetric outrigger configurations.
“This model reflects a focused engineering effort to align with North American performance expectations, safety standards and application requirements,” said Ernst. “The new generation of rough terrains introduces a modern design approach built around high-quality components and advanced systems that elevate control, monitoring and operational efficiency.”
The TRT 55US will be one of the featured machines on the Raimondi Group stand at ConExpo 2026, where the company will showcase its consolidated lifting ranges together for the first time following its acquisition of Terex’s rough terrain crane business.
