Why buy a Kobelco Crawler?

Kobelco offers several distinctive features that set their crawler cranes apart from other manufacturers. Here are some of the features that keep us continually utilizing them as a large part of our fleet:

Kobelco CK3300 g3
  • Maximize Uptime: Uptime is the most important factor in keeping your costs low and projects on schedule. It is crucial to maintain your precious schedule, whether near your yard or in a remote location. Downtime is the single highest cost of crane ownership, and these costs can be staggering. To minimize downtime, buy a Kobelco from Bigge and watch your profits soar.
  • Consistency in Design: Kobelco has maintained a consistent design philosophy, emphasizing reliability, simplicity, ease of maintenance, repair, and operator friendliness. In fact, operators familiar with older Kobelco models can quickly adapt to the newest G models, significantly reducing the operator learning curve.
  • Power Plant: All models up to the CK2750G‑3 are powered by an Isuzu engine known for being bulletproof and fuel-efficient. The CK3300G‑2 is powered by a Scania engine, which has proven to be one of the most reliable engines on the market.
  • Easy Transport: Kobelco Crawlers are designed with transportation in mind, with counterweights optimized to meet the 80,000-pound, 50-state legal limit for reducible loads. Additionally, fast assembly saves labor hours during rigging, minimizing labor costs.
  • Reliable Parts Availability: As a Kobelco dealer, we stock millions of dollars in spare parts across our locations. Importantly, Kobelco America is headquartered just 20 miles from Bigge’s worldwide crane sales headquarters in Houston.
