Terex Rough Terrain Cranes, a division of Raimondi, is reviving a legacy product category with the return of a new telecrawler crane line.
The new line debuts with the TTC 70, a telecrawler crane designed, engineered and manufactured at the Raimondi Group’s rough terrain headquarters in Italy. The model establishes the foundation of a renewed product category, with additional models planned in the near future.
“The unveiling of the TTC 70 marks a pivotal moment for Raimondi as we continue to evolve into a fully integrated, multi-segment lifting solutions provider, meeting the evolving needs of the global lifting industry,” said Luigi Maggioni, Chief Executive Officer, Raimondi Group. “The expansion into the crawler crane segment reflects our commitment to innovation and diversification, while building on a strong engineering heritage and extending our global footprint.”
The new telecrawler line bridges a key gap in the market, offering customers a solution that combines the mobility of crawler cranes with the operational efficiency and ease of use typically associated with rough terrain machines.
Mounted on crawler tracks, the TTC 70 eliminates the need for outriggers and operates on slopes of up to 4 degrees, reducing setup time and increasing jobsite flexibility.
The telecrawler crane also produces low ground pressure to enable work on less compact terrain, while maintaining higher lifting capacities while travelling compared to wheeled counterparts; making it particularly suited for compact jobsites, uneven ground conditions and critical infrastructure or energy-related applications.
Increasing demand across infrastructure, energy and complex construction projects has highlighted the need for lifting solutions capable of operating efficiently on uneven or low-bearing terrain, while maintaining high lifting performance.
“The decision to re-enter the crawler crane segment reflects shifting industry requirements, particularly in applications where versatility, mobility and performance in challenging environments are critical,” said Stefania D’Apoli, Global Sales Director, Terex Rough Terrain division.
Lift capacity
The TTC 70 features a maximum lifting capacity of 70 tonnes, a maximum boom length of 36.8 metres, and a drum capacity of 215 metres of lifting rope. The telecrawler is powered by an engine available in Stage V and Stage IIIA configurations, both equipped with a 300-litre fuel tank. The Stage V engine delivers 225 hp at 2,200 rpm.
The model also incorporates a range of advanced technologies aimed at enhancing performance, safety and operator experience. These include the TEOS operating system adapted for crawler cranes, T-Link connectivity and an electronic dynamic management system for the main hydraulic pump, optimizing both performance and fuel consumption.

Operator ergonomics have been improved through a redesigned cab offering increased space, intuitive joystick controls and enhanced accessibility.
A remote control system enables full machine operation, allowing tasks such as counterweight assembly and disassembly to be performed by a single operator, reducing setup time and improving overall jobsite efficiency.
The TTC 70 provides optimized transportability, with a maximum width of 3 metres and reduced transport weight when configured without counterweights. As well, a high level of component commonality with the TRT range, simplifies maintenance and operational familiarity for users.
The first units of the TTC 70 are expected to be delivered this year in North America and Europe, following an extensive testing program that includes both internal validation and field trials to ensure performance and reliability in real-world conditions.
