Hiab, part of Cargotec, launches iQ.708 HIPRO, a heavy loader crane from the next generation HIAB cranes.

Hiab, part of Cargotec, launches iQ.708 HIPRO, a heavy loader crane from the next generation HIAB cranes. The model offers a design that balances weight, lifting performance and dimensions that contribute to increased safety, valuable payload and expanding the range of truck installation options for customers.  

 

With an increased lifting capacity compared to previous models, the HIAB iQ.708 HIPRO offers customers improved performance in an optimised frame regarding dimensions and weight. Equipped with the most advanced control system SPACEevo for improved productivity and safer operations, the HIAB iQ.708 HIPRO provides advanced functions for veteran and novice operators alike.  This new loader crane is a perfect example of the modular approach behind Hiab’s design philosophy, by scaling the V12-Power boom profile to a crane in the 60 to 70tm range category to make the iQ.708 HIPRO an all-rounder unit for its segment. The HIAB iQ.708 HIPRO has a maximum vertical reach of 40 metres and with a JIB of 15 tm, it can deliver materials with an “up and over” of 26 metres.  

 

The design philosophy behind the structure of the crane is to deliver a balance between performance and overall installation flexibility, enabling customers to benefit from more payload on a wide assortment of truck installations, which are key elements for the users in this segment”, says Stefano Brusa,Director, Global Product Management Heavy & Superheavy Loader Cranes, Hiab. 

 

With a focus to assist operators during complex operations, Hiab is also introducing the Syncronised Distance Control (SDC) function with the iQ.708 HIPRO. This feature allows it to automatically keep the load at a set distance from the crane’s tip while only having to operate the extension movements from the remote. This reduces the need to operate multiple levers at the same time while increasing safety. It is very useful when handling loads that are farther and higher away from the operator, where visibility becomes the main obstacle to a safe movement. The Load Stability System for vertical movements (LSS-V) compensates for unintentionally excessive lever movement in vertical operations, while the Variable Stability Logic PLUS (VSL+) feature optimises lifting capacity by monitoring the position and pressure of the stabiliser legs actively using the available load on the truck. All the above features are complemented by the CD4 remote control, which provides operators with three large displays visible in all light conditions, haptic feedback for alerts and crane reactions, and battery with personalised operator crane settings.  Ordering of the new unit will begin in Q4 of 2024. 

 

To maximise the lifecycle of HIAB loader cranes, Hiab offers HiPerform smart solutions that enhance performance and productivity. Whether optimising fleet efficiency, improving operator safety, or extending equipment longevity, customers can choose from proactive maintenance, telematics, or simulator training solutions tailored to their needs. With the HiConnect telematics data solution, crane owners gain real-time insights into equipment condition, allowing for informed decisions that reduce downtime and boost productivity. As an additional benefit for the customer, the ProCare service contract provides comprehensive preventive maintenance and scheduled inspections to ensure cranes operate at peak performance. These smart solutions are designed to help customers maximise the value of their Hiab equipment, ensuring long-term reliability, safety, and performance. Plan availability may vary by market, but the commitment to supporting customers' success remains constant with innovative solutions that keep them ahead.
