Demag AC 1000-9

Demag AC 1000-9 Crane Overview and Specifications

The Demag AC1000‑9 is a 1320 ton all terrain crane. It has a maximum boom length of 164 feet. This crane is powered by a Tier III compliant, 653 horsepower engine.

While this crane is an absolute power house, it also focuses on accessibility and ability to move around the jobsite. The AC1000‑9 is equipped with a ZF TC-Tronic HD automated gearbox. The gearbox includes 12 speeds forward and 4 speeds in reverse. By giving the AC1000‑9 a transmission with so many speeds, Demag gives the operator the power to control the crane on the jobsite, thus allowing the operator to limit safety hazards. The crane is also outfitted with cameras and drive lights. These features also allow for easier movement around the jobsite and less likelihood of accidents.

The steering, breaking, and suspension systems also allow for more control and safety. The steering system is a dual circuit hydro semi-block system. The steering takes place in the rear axle and is loaded with different steering programs. The breaking system consists of a pneumatic dual circuit service break on all wheels, disc brakes, a sustained action break integrated into the transmission, an exhaust brake, a constant choke valve, and a spring-loaded parking break. The suspension system consists of a hydro pneumatic suspension with axle load compensation. All of these features allow for more control, and therefore more safety.

The cab of the AC1000‑9 is built with safety and comfort in mind. It includes safety tinted glass, air conditioning, and seat heating. Including these features allow for the operator to focus on the job at hand and not be distracted and make safety hazards.
