Overview
AMBAT ICONCRANES is the India dealer and service partner for Kroll Cranes (Denmark), covering tower cranes, flat-top cranes, hammerhead cranes and luffing cranes for shipyard, power plant, wind turbine erection, general construction and bridge-building applications. Kroll's heavy tower crane range spans 1,000 tm to 25,000 tm, positioning it for projects above what most Indian tower crane rental fleets can handle.
Key Features
- Tower crane range from 1,000 tm to 25,000 tm capacity.
- Quality gearboxes, motors and unique surface treatment for corrosion resistance and long service life.
- Electric level luffing cranes for bulk material handling with shortest-cycle-time design.
- Wind turbine erection models: 95-150 tonne lift capacity, 157-195 M height under hook.
- K10000 crane series proven on nuclear, hydro and fossil fuel power plant construction
Benefits
- Enables large-scale infrastructure and power projects that sit above standard crawler/mobile crane capability
- Minimum maintenance and cost required due to Kroll's surface treatment and corrosion-resistant build quality.
- Proven six-month construction time reduction on nuclear power plant projects using K10000 series cranes
- Wind turbine erection capability where crawler and all-terrain mobile cranes cannot be used (restricted access, small hardstands, high erection levels, heavy nacelle weights

Why Choose Our Product
- Access to a heavy tower crane class most Indian suppliers cannot offer, through a local dealer rather than direct import only.
- Proven track record across multiple countries and project types, including safety-critical nuclear plant construction.
- Purpose-built wind turbine erection models addressing India's move toward taller turbines and larger nacelles - a capability gap most domestic suppliers cannot fill
Manufacturing & Quality Process
Kroll cranes are manufactured in Denmark to the company's own international engineering standards, with mill-certified EN standard steel used in mast sections. AMBAT ICONCRANES' role is India specification, coordination and local support rather than domestic manufacturing of this partner-brand equipment.
Product Comparison
| Feature | Kroll Tower Crane | Standard Rental Fleet Tower Crane |
|---|---|---|
| Capacity Range | Up to 25,000 tm | Typically much lower |
| Wind Turbine Erection Capability | Purpose-built models (95–150T, 157–195M) | Usually not available |
| Nuclear/Power Plant Track Record | Proven (K10000 series) | Uncommon |
Certifications & Compliance
- Mill-certified EN standard steel for mast sections
- Manufactured to Kroll Cranes' own international engineering standards
Installation & Maintenance
Installation for this class of equipment is project-coordinated between AMBAT ICONCRANES, Kroll Cranes and the customer's site team, given the scale and safety-critical nature of the applications (nuclear plants, wind turbines, bridges). Ongoing support follows AMBAT ICONCRANES' broader AMC and inspection model.
Accessories & Compatible Products
- Mast sections and ties
- Control & automation systems
