Particulars Escorts TRX 1550 ACE 15XWE
Overview Summary

The Escorts TRX 1550 and ACE 15XWE are both 15-ton capacity cranes. The TRX 1550 boasts a higher engine power and boom height, while the 15XWE is more economical with faster boom luffing and a larger hydraulic tank for prolonged use. Both have different features catering to diverse aspects of lifting operations.

Escorts TRX 1550

Pros:
  • High torque Escorts AE 4.312C-3A engine with 49.5 HP for robust performance
  • 8 Forward & 2 Reverse speeds providing versatile maneuverability
  • Higher boom height of 18.3 m for extended reach in lifting operations
  • Power Steering for easier handling
  • Higher operating weight for potential better stability - 14065 kg
Cons:
  • Significantly higher price range: ₹ 32 - 34 Lakhs
  • Lower maximum speed without load (29 km/h) compared to ACE 15XWE
  • Hydraulic system with a lower capacity fuel tank of 90 L
  • Manual pinning required for 4th part of telescoping boom

ACE 15XWE

Pros:
  • More economical with a price range of ₹ 21 - 23 Lakhs
  • Improved control and streamlined operations for factory lifting and metro operations
  • Greater rotation angle with 55° articulation for enhanced maneuverability
  • Faster boom luffing time at 18 seconds
  • Larger hydraulic tank (125 L) providing extended operational capability
Cons:
  • Lower engine power (48 BHP) compared to Escorts TRX 1550
  • Slightly smaller boom elevation angle range of -2° to +53°
  • Lower boom height of 17.7 m, which might restrict reach in some situations
  • 6 forward speeds might offer less flexibility compared to Escorts TRX 1550's 8 forward speeds
  • Operating weight is less (11600 kg) potentially affecting stability during certain operations

Pros:
Cons:

Closing Recommendation

Consider the Escorts TRX 1550 if the budget is less of a concern and the operations demand higher power and reach. Conversely, the ACE 15XWE could be the better choice for cost-sensitive projects that require quicker boom movements and less expensive long-term operations.
