ACE SB 123
Pros
- Good lifting capacity for medium jobs: 12 Tm class suitable for construction & industrial loading.
- 360° continuous slew: Offers flexible load positioning without repositioning the truck.
- Manageable working radius: ~8.2 m reach adequate for many site tasks.
ESCORTS RT 20
Pros
- High lifting capacity: 22 t @ 3 m is strong for a rough‑terrain crane in this class (good for construction and infrastructure).
- Long reach: Up ~21.2 m boom provides good lifting height and reach
- Rough terrain mobility: 4×4 drive + multiple steering modes (2WD, 4WD, crab, etc.) helps manoeuvre in tough ground conditions.
