The Broderson IC-80 represents the initial carry deck crane model featured via ITI VR Simulations. Tough, versatile, and years of dependable service all contributed to making the Broderson IC-80 the most popular compact carry deck crane in the industry. Adaptable for a wide variety of industrial and maintenance applications, the IC-80 is an ideal industrial carry deck crane for heavy lifting in constrained environments.
Broderson has correctly identified that energy, steel, utility, manufacturing, mining, and other heavy industry markets needed more dependable, versatile, and durable industrial cranes. Broderson focuses on reliability, quality, and simplicity. The company now holds a well-deserved reputation for rugged design, precise control, and dependability. The IC-80 model continues to grow on performance and the ability to exceed the expectations of their most demanding customers. Other Broderson Carry Deck Cranes include models that offer 2.5, 4, 4.5, 9, 10, 15, 18, and 25 ton lifting capacities.

Broderson IC – 80 Features
- Self-Loading Carry Deck provides practical load-carrying capability
- 4-Wheel Steer where the front and rear wheels steer in opposite directions, permits a very tight turning radius for quick positioning in constrained spaces. Operator can quickly switch between rear-wheel steering, 4-wheel, or crab steering
- Hoisting with a hydraulically-powered turret-mounted planetary gear system provides all the low speed power to lift heavy loads, and a high-speed setting for faster cycle times when lifting lighter loads.
- Four Hydraulic Independently Controlled Outriggers partitioned from boom functions ensures safer and more precise operations
- Sequentially Extending/Retracting 3-Section Boom with continuous 360° swing rotation turret. Simplicity of the worm drive gear box results in greater reliability.
- Rated Capacity Limiter warns the operator of impending overload with audible and visual signals, and stopping boom functions in the event of overloads.

About Broderson
Broderson Manufacturing Corp., founded by Dean Broderson, is one of many post-war “Greatest Generation” successes that helped turn America into an economic superpower. Born in 1925 in the flat farming country of Osage County Kansas, Dean patriotically served his country with honor as a tail gunner during World War II. After returning to his native Kansas, Dean earned an engineering degree at the University of Kansas. Early on in his engineering career Dean demonstrated a keen interest in lift equipment innovation working with Ray Pittman (founder of Pitman Manufacturing and R.O. Products) and Art Moore (founder of Snorkel) in the Kansas City area. Broderson was founded in 1973 based on Dean’s confidence in his engineering experiences, and the belief in the market need for innovative lift equipment vision. Success came quickly and the unique Broderson legacy lives on vibrantly to this day.
