EMIL EGGER has the most powerful fleet of cranes in Switzerland

New 450-tonne truck-mounted crane from Tadano Demag in operation

Our new 450 t pneumatic crane from Tadano Demag has already been in operation for a few weeks. The AC 7.450-1 is one of the most modern mobile cranes in the world. The powerhouse combines strength and compactness like no other pneumatic crane. Compact like a 6-axle truck and strong like an 8-axle truck, it moves from construction site to construction site on its 7 axles. Thanks to the 80 m long main boom, even high construction cranes can be assembled in no time at all. Of course, in addition to the usual fixed tip, the crane has a luffing jib, guy wire and second hoist winch.

EMIL EGGER has the most powerful range of cranes in Switzerland

With this addition, ETE has the most powerful crane fleet in Switzerland. These are the three crawler cranes with 250 t, 750 t and 1000 t lifting capacity, but ETE is also a leader in the field of large pneumatic cranes: currently 2 x 300 t, 1 x 350 t, the new 450 t and the proven 500 t pneumatic crane are in daily use for the constantly growing clientele. Thanks to the experienced and efficient teams, crane work at ETE is twice as much fun.

Relocation of HPHT presses for Algordanza

Algordanza AG is the only manufacturer of memorial diamonds worldwide. From the urn ashes of the deceased, a diamond is created that can always be carried with you and is everlasting. The isolation of the carbon, by means of a chemical process is carried out in the Swiss laboratory by experienced laboratory technicians.
