ACE 18XW
Pros
- High lifting capacity: 18 tonnes is competitive for pick-and-carry cranes in its segment.
- Engine output: ~74 HP provides adequate power for lifting and travel.
- Safety features: Fail-safe brakes, audio overload & hoist protection available
ZED SA500
Pros
- Relatively low cost (~₹35k‑₹65k) compared with powered cranes and forklifts, making it a good entry‑level lifting tool.
- Easy to move and position inside workshops or small yards, with a light operating weight (~80 kg).
- Adjustable boom positions allow capacity variation (e.g., ~500 kg at first position, lower at other positions).
