Lewis Crane shows Chinese crawlers, mobile cranes

Lewis Equipment hosted its Crawlers and BBQ event for customers and prospective customers at its yard in Houston in April. At the event, seven cranes were on display, including such crawlers as a Zoomlion QUY200 (220 ton capacity); Zoomlion QUY70 (75 ton capacity); Fushun QUY80 (90 ton capacity); and Fushun QUY120 (130 ton capacity). A Zoomlion QY50V (55 ton capacity) truck crane was also on display.

“The target audience was a great way to follow-up to the interest we received from ConExpo and the results were very positive,” said Jeff Pedigo, marketing director, just after the event. “In fact five of these cranes will be heading to jobs throughout Texas starting on Monday.”

Several of the cranes shown were the first time on US soil.
