Particulars Escorts TRX 17 ACE SX 150
Overview Summary

The ACE SX 150 and Escorts TRX 17 are both capable mobile cranes with their unique strengths. The ACE SX 150 offers a 14-ton lifting capacity with a strong transmission system and is designed for safety and comfort in specific environments. On the other hand, the Escorts TRX 17 has a higher lifting capacity of 17 tons, more powerful engine, and extensive boom reach, making it suitable for larger scale operations.

ACE SX 150

Pros:
  • 14-ton lifting capacity suitable for engineering and yard environments
  • Equipped with a Mahindra 4485 IAE (BS-III CEV) 4 cylinder water-cooled diesel engine providing 47.5 HP
  • Heavy duty transmission with 6 forward and 2 reverse speed options
  • Power Steering with 45° articulation for better maneuverability
  • Triple-part telescopic boom with a maximum height of 15.4 meters
Cons:
  • Lower engine power compared to Escorts TRX 17
  • 2 Wheel drive as opposed to 4 Wheel drive in Escorts TRX 17
  • Lower hoist speed at the same line speed of 50 Mtrs./Min
  • Smaller fuel and hydraulic tank capacities

Escorts TRX 17

Pros:
  • 17-ton lifting capacity, suitable for mid-scale construction and infrastructure projects
  • Stronger engine from Tata 497 TC with 75 HP
  • 4 Wheel Drive for better terrain handling
  • 10 forward and 2 reverse speed transmission providing greater control
  • Larger boom height of 21.0 meters with a 4-part boom for extensive reach
Cons:
  • Higher price range compared to ACE SX 150
  • Larger minimum turning radius which might require more space to operate
  • Heavier operating weight could translate to less mobility in tight spaces
  • Additional care needed with manual pinning on the 4th boom part

Pros:
Cons:

Closing Recommendation

The choice between ACE SX 150 and Escorts TRX 17 largely depends on the specific lifting needs and the operation environment. If the requirement is for a more compact and less expensive crane for smaller scale projects, the ACE SX 150 could be the preferred choice. However, for projects demanding higher lifting capacity, greater power, and longer reach, despite a higher cost, the Escorts TRX 17 would be the more suitable investment.
