FRANNA – A TEREX BRAND IN partnership with local dealer MSM Group LLC have successfully delivered three pick and carry cranes to Mongolian mine OyuTolgoi, one of the rarest underground mines in the world in terms of gold and copper deposits. The deal consists of 3 x MAC 25-4 cranes, fully customised with mine specs and an advanced fire suppression system which allow the machines to safely and efficiently operate in the complex underground mining environment. The Franna MAC 25-4 is a mobile articulated crane with a maximum lifting capacity of 25 tonne. The MAC 25-4 offers maximum safety, excellent roadability, intuitive operation and unmatched versatility. Over the years its design has been tried, tested and

proven in a range of difficult lifting applications and is still a customer favourite today. A Superlift (SL) upgrade is also available on the MAC 25-4 as an additional option. The SL kit works in tandem with the existing MAC 25 counterweight, adding a low-slung additional counterweight piece to the rear of the machine and increasing rated capacity of the machine by up to 30% in some configurations.
