Power and Precision: AKM Autokranvermietung Strengthens Fleet with New Tadano AC 7.450-1

The Munich skyline is about to get a lot more intriguing. AKM Autokranvermietung, a major player in the German lifting sector, has officially added the Tadano AC 7.450-1 to its already formidable fleet. This isn’t simply another piece of equipment; it’s a strategic step that solidifies a connection established on decades of trust and high-altitude performance.



A Legacy of Trust in Tadano

For AKM, the decision to go with Tadano was less about browsing a catalog and more about continuing a proven track record. The Munich-based company had previously used a Tadano AC 8.500-1 for several years, depending on its durability for difficult urban projects. When the moment came to advance, Managing Director Sven Bauer knew just where to go.

Bauer personally visited Tadano’s Zweibrücken location to accept delivery. For AKM, the connection with Tadano is about more than simply steel and hydraulics; it’s about the dependability of a manufacturer who knows the arduous demands of the Bavarian construction industry.


The Seven-Axle Game Changer

What makes the AC 7.450-1 stand out in a crowded market of giants? It fills a “sweet spot” in engineering. While it has seven axles, it has the small footprint of a six-axle crane while providing raw lifting strength normally reserved for eight-axle behemoths.

In a city like Munich, where tiny streets and cramped work sites are the norm, adaptability is invaluable. AKM can now deliver 500-ton class power into areas where larger cranes cannot go.


Innovation Under the Hood

The new device is not only powerful, but also extremely intelligent. AKM selected a configuration that comprises a luffing jib and the unique Sideways Superlift (SSL) technology. The SSL system is particularly popular among the crew because it can be self-rigged, saving valuable time during on-site setup.

Furthermore, the crane has the IC-1 crane control system. Because AKM’s operators are already intimately familiar with this interface from previous Tadano models, the transition to the new machine has been smooth, ensuring peak production from the start.


Safety in the Urban Jungle

Operating a large crane in a busy city takes more than just a steady hand. The AC 7.450-1 features Tadano’s “Surround View” camera system. This six-camera system offers a 360-degree digital bird’s-eye view of the crane’s surroundings.

For AKM’s operators, this means they can monitor outrigger positioning and slewing radii with pinpoint accuracy. More importantly, it improves pedestrian and cycling safety in metropolitan locations, which should be a primary focus in any modern lifting operation.


A Best-in-Class Reach

The technical specifications of the AC 7.450-1 are astounding. It has an 80-meter main boom, which is now the longest reach possible on any six- or seven-axle all-terrain crane. With the luffing jib’s expanded reach, AKM can now handle everything from tower crane installation to major industrial bridge projects.


Setting New Standards

By adding this small powerhouse to their lineup, AKM Autokranvermietung sends a clear statement to the industry: they are devoted to employing the greatest technology available to address the most difficult lifting problems.

The AC 7.450-1 is the next generation of mobile lifting, combining tremendous capacity with the mobility necessary for the 21st-century jobsite. As AKM puts this new asset to work, the collaboration between Munich’s lifting experts and Tadano’s engineering team grows to new heights.
