What's the difference: Monoboom vs TAB
When you’re looking for the perfect machine for the job, it’s important to know the difference between these two key features.
Monoboom
A Monoboom gives a higher lift capacity when excavating ‘at reach’. It also features a deeper dig depth and maximum vertical wall cut depth.
Triple Articulated Boom (TAB)
A TAB delivers superior lifting and craning with a longer dig reach and a higher dump height. It has a smaller front swing radius of 2206 mm with a 3.0 dipper arm which gives it a higher lift capacity when lifting ‘close in’.
