Particulars Terex Franna FR20 ACE 15XWE
Overview Summary

The ACE 15XWE and Terex Franna FR20 are two distinct cranes designed for different operational needs. The ACE 15XWE is more cost-effective and optimized for factory and metro operations with its 15-ton capacity. In contrast, the Terex Franna FR20 boasts a 20-ton lifting capacity and a more potent engine, catering to heavier loads and versatile movement for infrastructure applications.

ACE 15XWE Hydraulic Crane

Pros:
  • Specially designed for streamlined factory lifting and metro operations
  • 15-ton handling capacity
  • Three-part boom slotted with synchronized extensions
  • High hoist speed of 50 Mtrs./Min
  • Economical pricing within ₹ 21 - 23 Lakhs
Cons:
  • Less powerful engine with 48 BHP
  • 2 Wheel drive compared to 4 Wheel drive in competitor
  • Lower maximum speed of 28 km/h
  • Manual steering operation
  • Lower maximum boom height of 17.7 m

Terex Franna FR20 Mobile Crane

Pros:
  • 20-ton lifting capacity, suitable for heavier loads
  • More powerful turbocharged 101 HP engine
  • 4 Wheel Drive for improved maneuverability
  • Higher maximum speed of 40 km/h
  • Larger fuel tank capacity of 270 L
Cons:
  • Pricier model with costs ranging between ₹ 45 - 50 Lakhs
  • Heavier operating weight of 16920 kg may require sturdier operation surfaces
  • Limited information on boom telescoping and derricking capabilities
  • Possibly narrower articulation angle of 40° compared to ACE's 55°
  • Overall larger dimensions might limit access in confined areas

Pros:
Cons:

Closing Recommendation

If budget is a key concern and the applications focus on lifting within the 15-ton range in factory or urban environments, the ACE 15XWE presents a strong choice. For operators needing a more robust and versatile crane with higher lifting capacity and better mobility, especially in road and rail operations, investing in the Terex Franna FR20 would be advisable despite the higher price point.
