Lewis orders towers, elevators

Dallas-based Lewis Equipment was in a purchasing mode at the Bauma China exhibition in November. The company announced it had ordered 65 new Sun Tower Cranes from Yongmao Construction Machinery for delivery in 2007. The company also ordered 100 new Hercules elevators from GJJ.

Lewis Equipment has consolidated its tower crane inventory to two brands, Terex Comedil and Sun Cranes. This new order will put Lewis among the top three tower crane operating companies in North America.
