Introducing the E20 Pick & Carry Crane
In today’s construction, glazing, manufacturing, and industrial maintenance sectors, access restrictions, safety requirements, and environmental considerations are becoming more challenging than ever. Traditional lifting equipment often struggles to operate efficiently in confined spaces, sensitive environments, and indoor applications.
This is where electric pick and carry cranes are transforming the industry.
At Zone Group, we continue to invest in innovative lifting solutions that allow our clients to complete complex projects safer, faster, and with greater precision. One of the standout machines in our fleet is the E20 Pick and Carry Crane.
What Is a Pick & Carry Crane?
Unlike conventional cranes that require outriggers and large setup areas, a pick and carry crane is designed to lift a load, transport it, and place it into position without the need for extensive setup.
This allows operators to move materials through restricted work areas, manufacturing facilities, shopping centres, commercial buildings, warehouses, hospitals, airports, and other locations where space is limited and efficiency is critical.
The E20 Pick and Carry Crane takes this capability to the next level by combining compact dimensions with fully electric operation.
Fully Electric, Zero Emissions
As more projects move towards sustainable construction practices, electric lifting equipment is becoming an essential requirement rather than a luxury.
The E20 delivers:
- Zero on-site emissions
- Low noise operation
- Indoor and outdoor functionality
- Reduced operating costs
- Minimal maintenance requirements
- Full-day runtime capability
Because it is battery-powered, the crane can safely operate inside buildings, shopping centres, manufacturing facilities, data centres, hospitals, and other sensitive environments where diesel equipment may not be suitable.
Designed for Tight Access Lifting
One of the biggest challenges in modern construction is access.
Projects are increasingly being completed in confined spaces where larger cranes simply cannot reach.
The E20’s compact design allows it to navigate through tight doorways, narrow corridors, congested construction sites, and restricted access areas while still delivering impressive lifting performance. Its exceptional manoeuvrability and precision controls make it ideal for lifting applications where millimetre accuracy is required.
Perfect for Glass Installation
Glazing contractors are continually faced with larger, heavier, and more complex glass panels.
The E20 Pick and Carry Crane has become a valuable solution for:
- Curtain wall installation
- Internal glazing works
- Commercial façade projects
- High-end residential glazing
- Tight-access glass placement
When combined with vacuum lifting attachments such as the Oktopus range, the crane provides a safe and efficient method of transporting and positioning glass panels with precision and control.
More Than Just Glass
While the E20 excels in glazing applications, its versatility extends far beyond glass installation.
The crane is regularly used for:
- Structural steel installation
- Mechanical services installation
- HVAC equipment placement
- Machinery relocation
- Plant maintenance
- Pipe and beam handling
- Industrial shutdown works
- Architectural feature installation
Its ability to lift, carry, and place loads within a single operation significantly reduces labour requirements and project timeframes.
Safety Through Innovation
Safety remains a priority on every project.
The E20 incorporates advanced control systems, precision lifting capabilities, and operator-friendly technology designed to improve lifting safety and reduce manual handling risks.
Features such as intuitive operator controls, advanced diagnostics, removable ballast systems, and fleet monitoring technology help maximise productivity while maintaining safe lifting operations.
The Future of Compact Lifting
As construction sites continue to become more complex and environmentally conscious, electric pick and carry cranes are quickly becoming an essential tool across multiple industries.
The E20 Pick and Carry Crane represents the future of compact lifting technology by combining:
- Compact dimensions
- High lifting performance
- Zero-emission operation
- Tight-access capability
- Indoor and outdoor versatility
- Enhanced safety and efficiency
For contractors looking to overcome access challenges while maintaining productivity, electric pick and carry cranes provide a smarter way to lift.
