The Franna AT-18 is an Australian-made pick and carry crane, and one of the most versatile machines in the Castle Cranes fleet. With an 18 tonne lifting capacity and a telescopic boom reaching 14 metres — extendable to 18 metres with a manual jib extension — it covers a wide range of lifting tasks across residential, commercial and rural sites.
Unlike a conventional mobile crane, the Franna doesn’t require outriggers to operate. It can pick up a load and carry it while moving, making it the ideal choice for confined sites, tight residential access, and anywhere setup space is limited. Fast to mobilise and straightforward to position, it’s a practical and capable machine for the jobs that need precision over size.
Well suited to roof truss placement, tree lopping assistance, pool installations, machinery relocation
