M1280D

M1280D

The Marr 1280D (M1280D) was the first of the heavy lift tower cranes to be developed and introduced into our fleet. It was developed for a client needing a large crane to lift heavy components on the construction of a hydroelectric power station. The M1280D addressed the problem of how to lift heavy components to the bottom of the dam wall where there was little room to establish a large crane either on the dam wall or below.

The M1280D has since been used in projects including stadium construction, oil and gas refineries, mining and major transport infrastructure.
