This Hitachi KH 230-3 is a used crawler crane — sometimes referred to as a lattice boom crane or tracked crane — manufactured in Japan in 1996 and currently located in the Netherlands. Crawler cranes are heavy lifting machines used across construction, civil engineering, infrastructure, and industrial projects where high capacity and stable ground bearing across soft or uneven terrain are required. Hitachi is a long-established Japanese manufacturer with a broad portfolio of heavy construction and lifting equipment, known for robust engineering and wide global support networks.
The crane has a rated lifting capacity of 65,000 kg (65 tonnes) and has accumulated 14,547 hours of operation. Power comes from a Hino EM100 engine. The lattice mast measures 3,100 cm in total length, and the machine is currently configured with a 31-metre boom, with additional boom sections available to extend reach further. A counterweight of 22,800 kg is fitted to provide the ballast necessary for safe operation at full capacity.
The hoisting arrangement includes three winches, all equipped with a free-fall option, which allows controlled high-speed lowering of the hook — a feature valued in applications such as piling and clamshell work. Lifting operations are assisted by a PAT Krüger lifting computer, which monitors load and radius in real time to support safe working load management on site.
The machine holds CE certification, confirming conformity with European machinery safety requirements. It is offered on Ex Works (EXW) delivery terms, meaning the buyer arranges collection and transport from the seller's location in the Netherlands. The asking price is €65,000.
