This Kobelco BM500 is a used crawler crane — sometimes referred to as a lattice crane — manufactured in 1997 and currently located in the Netherlands. Crawler cranes are heavy lifting machines used across construction, civil engineering, industrial installation, and infrastructure projects, valued for their ability to move under load and operate on soft or uneven ground. Kobelco is a well-established Japanese manufacturer with a long history of producing cranes and excavators for demanding applications worldwide.
The crane carries a maximum lifting capacity of 50 tonnes at a 3.5-metre radius, with a 17.0-tonne counterweight fitted to maintain stability under load. The main boom measures 30.5 metres, and a 9.0-metre fixed jib is available as an optional attachment, extending the crane's reach for configuration-specific tasks. The load moment indicator is a Kobelco-branded system integrated into the machine.
Power comes from a Mitsubishi 6D16 diesel engine producing 132 kW, a well-regarded six-cylinder unit known for reliability in heavy equipment applications. The machine has accumulated approximately 13,000 hours of use and is presented in its original colour scheme.
The undercarriage runs on flat-plate crawlers with a plate width of 760 mm, providing a broad footprint suitable for distributing ground pressure on varied terrain. The winch arrangement consists of two hoist winches fitted with 22 mm rope and a boom hoist winch fitted with 16 mm rope. A 3-sheave hook block is included, and the serial number is recorded as FP-01069.
