COPMA 450 Articulated Crane: A Masterpiece of Heavy-Duty Lifting at World of Concrete

The COPMA 450 is widely recognized as one of COPMA’s true masterpieces and has been successfully deployed across a broad range of demanding operations worldwide. Designed for high-performance lifting where precision, reach, and structural reliability are critical, the COPMA 450 has become a reference platform in the high-capacity articulated crane market.

Proven Performance in Concrete Precast and Construction Applications

From concrete precast facilities to large-scale construction and infrastructure projects, the COPMA 450 has consistently demonstrated its value in real-world conditions. Its ability to handle heavy loads with accuracy and stability makes it particularly well suited for concrete handling, placement, and complex lifting scenarios where margins for error are minimal.

Over years of deployment, the COPMA 450 has earned a reputation for durability, control, and adaptability. These characteristics have positioned it as a preferred solution for operators who require reliable performance in challenging environments.

World of Concrete: A Showcase for High-Capacity Articulated Cranes

World of Concrete has long been an exceptional showcase for advanced lifting equipment, especially in applications tied to concrete construction and precast operations. Few trade events better highlight the versatility and engineering behind machines like the COPMA 450.

At World of Concrete, concrete handling, placement, and heavy lifting converge on the show floor and through live demonstrations, making it an ideal environment to experience the capabilities of a high-capacity knuckle boom crane firsthand.

Where to See the COPMA 450.5J3 at World of Concrete

Visitors to World of Concrete can see the COPMA 450.5J3 articulated crane displayed at two locations:

  • Booth C5603 with Irving Equipment LLC

  • Booth C4812 with Cranes & Equipment Corp.

These displays provide an opportunity to examine the crane up close and engage with experienced teams supporting COPMA equipment in North America.

Operator-Focused Design: Seat and Full Remote Control

The showcased COPMA 450.5J3 units are equipped with both an operator seat and full remote control operation. This dual-control configuration allows operators to choose the safest and most precise working position for each lift.

Remote operation significantly enhances safety in complex lifting scenarios while maintaining the high level of precision required for concrete and infrastructure work. This focus on operator control and safety is a defining aspect of COPMA’s design philosophy.
