Data from China Customs shows that Australia imported various types of cranes from China worth US$75.886 million in 2021, down from US$78.703 million in 2020. Australia used to have close trade relations with China, but with the anti-China policy of the Australian government in recent years, it has brought a lot of uncertainty to the trade between the two countries. As a company that provides cranes to Australian customers all the year round, Dongqi Crane's exports to Australia in 2021 also saw a sharp decline. This world is not a peaceful world. If the Australian government cannot give up its confrontational thinking, no one can predict the future trend of the crane market in Australia.

Hi
My name is John Narducci from NSW Australia. I am hoping you can provide me with some information. I have a Kobelco RK70 - 7t that I am trying to sell. The crane is imported and it has been derated to 4.9t . I have been informed that I have to change the top sheaves to bring it up to 7t. Could someone please let me know if that is correct and if it is would you know where to buy them. Hope to here from you soon.
