Self Erecting Cranes have been in use throughout Europe probably since the 1970,s however Self Erecting Crane have only become popular on sites in Ireland & UK in the past  10 years. Mantis Cranes Ireland Ltd. were the first to introduce these Self Erecting Cranes which are also known as Pedestrian Operated Tower Cranes or Mini Tower Cranes into the Irish market in 1998. Prior to this there would have only been 4 -5 Remote Control Self Erecting Cranes in Ireland which would all have been very old machines which were difficult to erect or dismantle thus this is likley why Pedestrian Operated Tower Cranes never became popular on sites throughout Ireland & UK. We commenced the manufacturing of Remote Control Tower Cranes in Ireland in late 1998. Most Pesdestrian Operted Tower Cranes are delivered to sites on Low Loader Trailers and are the  towed into position using a Telehadler or Telescopic Forklift. A second truck usually delivers the concrete ballast weights for the Mini Tower Crane. Once the Self Erecting Crane has been towed into position by the Telehandler and levelled, the Self Erecting Crane can be erected within a few hours. Mini Tower Cranes are usually only erected on sites where they are needed for 3-4 months thus when compared to the cost of hiring a Mobile Crane for this period of time there is huge cost savings to be made by the customer. Self Erecting Cranes can operate from confined spaces and can even be erected on pathways outside sites if there is not enough space on site for them and on occassions we have also erected the Pedestrian Operated Tower Cranes on 1st & 2nd Floor Slabs provided adequate underpropping has been put in place. During 2007 we launched a Self Erecting Crane which is economical for using on sites which only require a crane for as little as one day. This crane is called a Mantis TC 25 and unlike the traditional Pesdestrian Operated Tower Crane there is no Low Loader or Telescopic Forklift required to tow it into position or load ballast weights as this crane is delivered to the site as a self contained unit which can be operational within 30 minutes from delivery to site. This Self Erecting Crane can also carry its own Generator on board which is another benefit to this unique Mini Tower Crane.
