The counterweight, part number 587 705 40, provides the necessary mass to balance the crane during lifting tasks. By positioning this weight on the side opposite the load, it counteracts the overturning moment created by the boom and the lifted object, ensuring the center of gravity remains within the support base of the machine.
This component is engineered specifically for the Demag AC80-1 mobile crane and has a precise weight of 3.45 tons. It integrates into the crane's counterweight system, allowing the operator to configure the machine for specific load capacities and operating radii as required by the manufacturer's load charts.
Counterweights are used in mobile cranes to manage the forces generated during lifting. They ensure the machine remains stable throughout the full range of motion. Maintaining the correct mass is vital for the safe operation of the crane within its rated limits, as it directly influences the structural integrity and balance of the equipment during heavy-duty cycles.
