The Right Crane in Just a Few Clicks

With Crane Advisor, Konecranes provides a convenient way of searching for the right crane with a browser-based tool that selects systems in four easy steps.

Updated by the global leader for cranes and lifting equipment in September 2017 and used by more than 4,000 professionals globally, the new version of Crane Advisor is now available in English, German, Chinese (Mandarin), French, Polish, Russian, Czech and Greek - with other languages to follow.

Finding the right crane system for every application

The intuitive user interface of the Crane Advisor works with all devices - whether smartphone, tablet, or desktop PC. "More than 4,000 visitors have already tried our tool in only a few months. We expect high demand in the UK as well", says Mark Goringe. "We also want to continuously expand the choice of languages. For example, we are currently planning a Spanish version. Other languages will follow."

"Our Crane Advisor identifies the right crane system in only four steps, by industry, the maximum capacity needed, the required span width, and the individual class of use", explains Mark Goringe, Konecranes Industrial Service - Area Director, Mid West Europe.
