For more than 130 years, Michelin has been at the forefront of advances in mobility, driven by materials science and technological advancements. This has made them the market leader in the tyre industry.
𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄𝗹𝗲𝗱𝗴𝗲In recent years, Spierings and Michelin have joined forces, combining their knowledge and skills. The goal: to develop the ideal tyre that increases the productivity of the Spierings SK models by minimising machine downtime due to sudden pressure loss or premature tyre wear. 🤝
𝐓𝐰𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐣𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐝𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐬Thanks to this collaboration, Michelin is launching the first 445/75 R22.5-inch tyre designed specifically for the Spierings mobile tower crane: the Michelin X-Crane 2. This tyre features a new tread pattern inspired by Michelin’s truck tyre design. There are two major advantages to this innovative approach, 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐲 and 𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞. 💪
𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐲The Michelin X-Crane 2 makes efficient transport between construction sites possible, thanks to a speed rating that allows it to travel at theoretically 100 km/h on the road, with an optimal load capacity of 6,500 kg. It is also designed for use in difficult driving conditions, such as on snow and rough terrain. 🛣️❄️
𝐄𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞The Michelin X-Crane 2 has an innovative carcass design that improves the tyre’s thermal performance. This reduces heat build-up during use and extends tyre life. It also increases overall safety. With this combination of innovations, Michelin and Spierings are improving mobility for operators of mobile tower cranes without compromising safety, regardless of the conditions.🛡️

Oss, September 2023 – Bob Bruijsten, director and owner of family-owned Kuiphuis from Oldenzaal is investing in two new SK2400-R eLift crawler cranes from Spierings. The first new crane of this model will be delivered to Kuiphuis in the first half of 2024. With this, Kuiphuis is once again stepping up the sustainability of there crane fleet.
Within Kuiphuis, five eLift cranes have already been added to the fleet in recent years to meet the demand for electric construction equipment. Bob Bruijsten: “We may be moving faster than construction companies at the moment, we find that construction companies are still getting used to the fact that with electric cranes of this size we can already run on construction with a 16 amp connection.”
In addition, Bob Bruijsten sees it as everyone’s responsibility to make the maximum effort to save emissions.” If we already look at how many hours we run emission-free every week, that just makes me proud. In addition, both new machines are much needed, we have requests from all over the country for the eLift system, specifically for the SK2400-R capabilities.”
Kuiphuis has a fleet of more than 40 Spierings cranes including several crawler cranes. Kuiphuis notices that the demand for these types of cranes is increasing. The loads are getting heavier and more and more elements are supplied prefabricated, which as a crane rental company you have to respond to.
Mathieu Braamhaar, Sales Engineer at Spierings Mobile Cranes BV; “Kuiphuis is a wonderful family business which invests in the future, the fact that they are now the first to operate with our new SK2400-R eLift is a great milestone. The SK2400-R eLift is a further development of the SK2400-R which we have been producing for some time. However, the new crane has multiple configurations for lifting. With one transport you already have a lifting capacity of 2800 kg at 42 meters. This has made the crane multifunctional.”
About SK2400-R eLiftThe SK2400-R eLift is the strongest mobile tower crane ever built. This powerful crane is built on a crawler undercarriage, so it can be quickly erected and moved around the construction site.The crane has a jib length of 42 meters or 50 meters, lifting up to 5.5 tons or 2.5 tons at the tip. In addition, the crane hoists a maximum of 18 tons at 14.6 meters radius.

El fabricante de grúas de Oss opta por la elevación totalmente eléctrica
Spierings Mobile Cranes deja de fabricar grúas diesel convencionales
Spierings Mobile Cranes ha decidido dejar de fabricar y vender grúas diésel convencionales. A partir de ahora, el fabricante de grúas de Osse sólo producirá modelos híbridos sostenibles. De este modo, Spierings se convierte en la primera empresa del mundo que fabrica exclusivamente grúas de elevación totalmente eléctrica. Además, el último modelo, la SK487-AT3 City Boy, también puede funcionar de forma totalmente eléctrica, lo que permite reducir por completo las emisiones locales. Esta grúa eléctrica permite trabajar sin emisiones en cualquier ciudad.
La razón de esta elección es el fuerte crecimiento de las grúas híbridas y el afán por hacer lo máximo por las personas, la naturaleza y el medio ambiente. La electrificación de las obras sólo puede tener éxito si el fabricante marca el camino”, afirma el director general Koos Spierings. Nuestros clientes nacionales ya son conscientes de que éste es el futuro. A nuestros clientes extranjeros les costará un poco adaptarse, pero estamos seguros de que pronto verán también las ventajas de esta decisión. Con el tiempo, las grúas diésel convencionales desaparecerán”.
Baterías de iones de litio
Las grúas torre híbridas de Spierings Mobile Cranes están equipadas con baterías de iones de litio. Esto las hace adecuadas para el funcionamiento sin emisiones en cualquier obra. Para casos de emergencia, la grúa está equipada con un pequeño motor diésel de 3 cilindros Fase V. Hasta la fecha, Spierings Mobile Cranes ya ha entregado más de 150 grúas eléctricas, más conocidas como eLift.
Innovación y sostenibilidad
Las ventajas del funcionamiento sin emisiones son evidentes, afirma Spierings. No hay emisiones de CO2 ni contaminación acústica, pero la potencia no disminuye. ¿Y si, a pesar de todo, el operador necesita utilizar el pequeño motor diésel? El consumo de combustible sigue siendo muy bajo. Esto demuestra que el buen espíritu empresarial, la innovación y la sostenibilidad van de la mano”.
Spierings Mobile Cranes sigue desarrollando la tecnología híbrida. Así, todas las grúas actuales pueden funcionar sin emisiones, alimentadas por una conexión eléctrica de obra de 16 A. Spierings es también el único fabricante que suministra grúas con un paquete de baterías de iones de litio de 33 kWh directamente de fábrica.
Acerca de Spierings Mobile Cranes
Spierings Mobile Cranes es líder del mercado de grúas torre móviles. Las grúas de esta empresa con sede en Osse se utilizan en más de 30 países, principalmente por empresas de alquiler de grúas y de construcción. Las grúas se desarrollan y fabrican íntegramente en los Países Bajos. Spierings Mobile Cranes alcanzará una facturación de unos 100 millones de euros en 2022.
