ESCORTS RT 40
Pros
- High lifting capacity (40 t) ideal for heavy construction and infrastructure jobs
- Rugged rough-terrain capability with 4WD + 4WS for off-road maneuverability
- 360° continuous slew with outriggers for flexible site positioning
ACE SB 203
Pros
- Higher lifting moment (20 Tm) ideal for heavier lifting compared with SB‑163; good for robust job sites.
- Adequate reach for both vertical (≈13.1 m) and horizontal (≈9.9 m) tasks.
- Suitable for medium‑heavy duty tasks in construction, industrial yards and logistics.
