COPMA is CPS Group's line of heavy-duty articulated (knuckle-boom) loader cranes, from compact models to the flagship COPMA 7500, used in construction, marine, utility, recovery, and military logistics.

What makes COPMA cranes different?

COPMA cranes use a hydraulic architecture with fewer diverter valves than typical competitors, so less pump energy is lost to heat, so more power reaches the boom and the crane sustains a higher duty cycle, with a simpler, field-repairable design.

PESCI is CPS Group's brand of marine and offshore lifting cranes.

Does CPS Group offer crane autonomy?

Yes. Our OVERRIDE drive-by-wire technology brings electronic and remote control to COPMA, PESCI and CPS cranes, available across the whole range for both civil and defense applications.

Why use a loader crane for an art installation?

Reach to stand clear of the artwork and the buildings, and slow, precise control to set heavy, awkward pieces down exactly, in a tight historic square.

COPMA 1800 Tecnoil in Catania: a night lift of bronze horses with Licata AutogruIn a floodlit Catania piazza, at night, a COPMA 1800 Tecnoil operated by Licata Autogru lifted large bronze horse sculptures into place, working in a tight historic square ringed by baroque palazzi.The COPMA 1800, at the top of the rangeThe 1800 is one of the largest cranes COPMA builds, a high-capacity knuckle-boom loader crane mounted here on a heavy four-axle MAN chassis. Its long articulated boom reaches high and far, then folds compactly for the road, which is what lets a single truck carry the crane into a pedestrian square and still place a heavy, awkward load exactly where it is needed.A delicate lift in a historic squarePlacing bronze sculptures is not about lifting power alone. The pieces are heavy, valuable and awkwardly shaped, the square is tight and surrounded by protected buildings, and the work was done at night to keep the centre clear. That calls for reach to stand the truck clear of the artwork and the facades, and slow, precise control to set each piece down without a jolt. A knuckle-boom crane, with its articulated boom and stabilisers, suits that kind of careful placement.COPMA and Licata Autogru in SicilyThe lift was carried out by Licata Autogru, a Sicilian crane company running the COPMA 1800. COPMA cranes work across Italy, from everyday materials handling to one-off lifts like this one.
