Terex Tower Cranes, now part of Raimondi, is expanding its luffing jib crane lineup with the new next generation CTL 712-45 crane.
Introduced at ConExpo, the new crane is designed to enhance performance, control and efficiency on high-rise and large-scale projects.
Combining strength, speed and reliability, the high performing crane meets the demand of complex and ambitious construction projects.
“Engineered to deliver precise, responsive load handling across the entire operating cycle, the CTL 712-45 integrates advanced control technologies that enhance efficiency while prioritizing safety and operational accuracy,” said Francesco Aiello, General Manager, Terex Tower Cranes.
“The model reflects the company’s continued focus on intelligent design and performance-driven innovation.”
Featuring a 70-metre-long jib and a tip load of 5.8 tonnes, the CTL 712-45 is equipped with a 134 kW hoist winch and it can lift at a maximum speed of 226 metres per minute in single fall.
“This latest addition to our portfolio creates significant global opportunities, building on the proven success of the CTL 702-32,” said Lee Maynard, Global Sales Director, Terex Tower Cranes.

The crane can be erected on an HD23 mast, reaching a 63.4 metre tower height in standard configuration and allowing up to a 131.2 metre height under hook at maximum radius. The freestanding height capabilities provide added versatility for dense urban jobsite and high-rise developments.
Fully electric, the luffing jib delivers quiet, energy-efficient operations, reduces environmental impact and minimizes urban noise, making it the optimal solution for sustainable construction sites.
The CTL 712-45 is designed for full lifecycle efficiency, with optimized control systems and significantly improved technical advantages. Streamlined procedures include standardized pins and bolts, reduced tooling requirements and smart assisted assembly solutions. This standardization allows for quicker assembly and dismantling to reduce valuable onsite time.
Conceptualized and designed with erection crews, technicians and operators in mind, the CTL 712-45 optimizes connector usage, reducing the number of cables and connections to manage and simplify maintenance activities. As well, primary assembly is completed at ground level, further boosting safety and ease of installation.
With safety remaining a top priority, enhanced enclosures and integrated handrail protection minimize the risk of falling objects and provide a high level of protection for personnel during operation, maintenance and assembly or disassembly phases.
Precision is further reinforced through the T-Line auto-levelling system, which maintains consistent load height during jib luffing to enable accurate load placement. T-Torque inverter technology provides smooth, operator-adjustable slewing with optimised torque control.
Together, these systems allow operators to fine-tune crane movements across a wide range of complex lifting applications.
At a recent customer event held at the Terex Cranes’ testing facility, the CTL 712-45 received positive feedback, particularly for its streamlined erection process and ease of maintenance.
“The new S-Pace cabin was also highly praised for its operator-focused design. One customer described the crane as 10 to 15 years ahead of its time, feedback that strongly validates our engineering direction and commitment to delivering forward-thinking solutions to the market,” Maynard said.
