SPX328 EVO Mini Crane
SPX328 EVO mini cranes: the evolution of minicrane control and management.
The EVO option on SPX328 consists on a totally new advanced software improving performance and operational efficiency.
HIGHER LIFTING CAPACITY in REDUCED STABILITY CONDITIONS and wider stability areas.
REDUCED CONSUMPTION and faster crane movements with Variable Speed Engine Management.
IMPROVED INTERFACE with setting customization, additional features and more info.
- DIMENSIONS (MILLIMETER) 730 x 1610 x 2950
- POWER Batteries
- MAX LOAD (KILOGRAM) 2800
- MAX HEIGHT (METER) 12.8
- MAX RADIUS (METER) 10.4
1.1 NEW STABILITY AREAS AND LOAD CHARTS
With EVO Option the new software allows the crane to operate at even more reduced stability conditions than on standard crane.
6 STABILITY LEVELS (3 levels on standard model).
Higher lifting capacity/stability footprint ratio.
LIFTING CAPACITY EVEN IN THE LOWEST STABILITY: Even in the lowest stability condition the crane is able to provide lifting capacity, eliminating areas where on standard crane it is forbidden to operate.
LIFTING CAPACITY ON DISPLAY: The new display of EVO model timely shows on all stability areas the maximum lifting capacity: the operator is always aware of the limits over the entire working circumference.

1.2 VARIABLE ENGINE SPEED
With EVO Option the electric motor is managed with variable speed: depending on the power required, the motor will adopt an optimal RPM to ensure the best ratio between energy consumption and performance:
- LOWER ENERGY CONSUMPTION: Up to -25% average energy consumption makes the battery charge last longer.
- FASTER CRANE MOVEMENTS: Maximum motor speed increased by +20% with same consumption and faster crane movements.

1.3 WIDER STABILITY AREAS
With EVO Option the early changes of stability areas have been eliminated: stability area can be fully usable up to the outriggers’ limits.
When moving to an area with lower stability (example: moving from J7 to J0), on standard model the J7 stability area is stopped earlier than the outrigger limit: when the boom stops at J0 area limit, this solution prevents the load from swinging encroaching on the J0 stability area. On EVO model this early stop is not needed anymore: the operator knows in advance the lifting limits of the neighbouring area and speed is reduced when approaching the lower stability area.
Area comparison
1.4 CAPACITY DISPLAYED AND HIGHER SWL
With EVO Option the new software allows the crane to operate at even more reduced stability conditions than on standard crane.
1.5 PICK&CARRY WITH JVM800R
The J0 load chart on the EVO version is considered as the pick&carry.
When the glass manipulator JVM800R is installed, thanks to this particularity is possible to drive with the crane while the accessory is installed, and automatically the crane change the load chart on J0.
2. NEW FEATURES OF UPDATE 3.0.0 (AVAILABLE ON STANDARD AND EVO CRANES)
With the new software V3.0.0 there are more new features and innovations.
and why then?
Because software V3.0.0 introduces:
- more control over the rotation direction with an on-screen warning;
- more control over the outriggers by auto-saving stability data condition;
- battery recharge control with an on-screen warning;
- P-LS pressure adjustment procedure (under password);
- outrigger 1 lift block with a 25° swing angle of outrigger 1;
- rotation congruity check and automatic calibration of the P-LS transducers each time the machine is switched on.
2.1. COLUMN ROTATION CONTROL
With this new version 3.0.0, after 30 minutes of active rotation, on the display appear a pop-up for checking the rotation angle and the crane turret position are still congruent (crane functions are still possible to operate with the pop-up on the display)
The operator must check the correspondence between the display and the real crane position: press “Yes” is it’s correct and keep working.
In case the rotation doesn’t correspond, selecting “No” automatically generates a warning that force the load chart J0 and is necessary to enable the crane bypass (also with the red key) to put it in the rest position and with the Login is necessary to recalibrate the sensor and later check the rotation value. In case the sensor have problem or the don’t have the calibration, contact the after sales team.
2.2. STABILITY CONDITION MEMORIZATION
Thanks to this feature, when the last outrigger is placed on the ground, the crane automatically saves the rotation angle values and keeps the stability condition in memory, so the stability areas won’t change during the crane rotation if there are small variations in the angle readings (with a tolerance of total 6°, with 3° on each side).
2.3. BATTERY RECHARGE WARNING
Thanks to this feature, every 80 hours of electronic motor on, a warning appears reminding the importance of equalizing the cells by charging the machine lithium battery up to 100% SOC.
2.4. AUTOMATIC PRESSURE CONTROL CALIBRATION
With this function, it is possible to calibrate the P-LS pressure directly on the crane.
To enter you must log in, only a technician can perform this procedure.
Position the crane in rest position and keep activated the boom retraction function and press the button to calibrate the transducers until the end pop-up appears.
2.5. OUTRIGGER 1 LIFT BLOCK WITH 25° ROTATION ANGLE
With the old version of the SW, when the outrigger 1 was set with the rotation angle at 25° and was lifted to close it, this would collide with the JIB installed on the crane boom. With this new version this does not happen as the movement is blocked automatically when the JIB600.1MX on board is set.
2.6. CRANE ROTATION DIRECTION CHECK
The new software version introduces the rotation verse checking while the rotation manoeuvre is activated. The software will very the correct rotation direction congruity with the lever direction.
To avoid false readings, and generate false alarms, this checking has been deactivated while rotating at very slow speed.
2.7. AUTOMATIC TRASDUCER CALIBRATION P-LS
While the motor is not spinning a calibration of the P-LS pressure transducers is automatically carried out to set the 0 bar reading pressure to P and LS, for more precise control over pressures during operation.
3. SPECIAL HARDWARE FOR SPX328 EVO UNIT
Although the software version 3.0.0 can be installed on standard cranes SPX328, the features of SPX328EVO will be enabled only with the new electronic Master unit.
NEW MASTER UNIT ‘EVO’
4. LOAD CHART
New loading charts with higher lifting capacity even in smaller areas will be available only for the EVO version, and are not compatible with the old SW version 2.4.0.
5. DISPLAY FEATURES ONLY FOR EVO
New setting pages are available on the display.
Customize your interface by adding your company logo, contact details and custom colors on the crane rendering.
The EVO model allows you to start working immediately after switching on the key, without waiting the 30-45 seconds required by the standard model to load the software.
6. JIB ON BOARD SELECTION ONLY
On the EVO version, the possibility to modify the JIB on board setting on the machine will be allowed only after login with technician access level.
The operator can only confirm whether the JIB is on board on the crane or not but can’t change the type of JIB on board.
Jib setup
• The type of jib on board can be selected and set by the crane owner only.
• The operator will find the correct jib already set and can select whether having it on board or not. The boom image on display will show the jib present or not too.
