Manitowoc is going "Big and Bold" at this year's ConExpo-Con/AGG 2026, with some huge launches and a showcase of its customer support offerings.
Crane introductions from Grove and National Crane will be showcased alongside new aftermarket products and services to expand Manitowoc's goal as a total lifecycle lifting solutions company. The Manitowoc booth also will feature one of North America's most popular rough-terrain cranes, the Grove GRT780.
"Manitowoc is focused on building around the world the infrastructure and communities of today and tomorrow," said Aaron Ravenscroft, president and chief executive officer of The Manitowoc Company Inc. "Our Cranes+50 strategy guides us as we work to become a full-lifecycle service lifting provider for our customers. Our presence at ConExpo 2026 reflects that commitment — we're showcasing some of the largest mobile cranes at the show and demonstrating how our partnership helps customers maximize their investments with industry-leading product support. Our cranes are essential to their operations, and we're here to support them every step of the way."
Manitowoc's customer partnerships deliver success on the job site, through parts and service, lift consultation, workforce training, maintenance kits, efficiency-boosting technologies and more, according to the company.
At ConExpo 2026, the wide array of customer support solutions is grouped into four key pillars:
• Training and workforce enablement is focused on technician training and anchored in the new mobile training and technology center.
• Technology and fleet management covers tools such as Grove Connect and Potain Connect.
• Lifecycle solutions show how Manitowoc supports cranes post-purchase with EnCORE premium rebuild cranes and reman parts, extended service coverage, repair/rebuild pathways and more.
• Maintenance and reliability tools incorporate a wide range of accessories, including the wire rope cleaner, boom lubrication kit, wireless hydraulic pressure test kit, next-gen Wika iFlex2/5 console and more.
Next Level Training Unveiled
One highlight is the new mobile training and technology center debuting at the show. This mobile classroom offers modular, on-site training for customers and North American dealers, advancing workforce development for large crane owners and dealers by streamlining technician upskilling, according to the company.
The mobile training and technology center travels to site on a 53 ft. step-deck trailer and is deployed via hydraulic jacks. It's a spacious facility, measuring 40 ft. by 25 ft., and can be set up in just 6 hours. The Wi-Fi-enabled training center is packed with multimedia, including three TVs and a Smart interactive board. Manitowoc provides the instructors to host training sessions in the center, with each event tailored to customer needs.
Manitowoc also will showcase its comprehensive customer support services and offerings, with stations for everything from lifecycle solutions to used cranes, and from the latest technologies to an array of specialized tools for lubricating, greasing, cleaning and more.
Manitowoc is located at Stand F39029 at ConExpo-Con/AGG 2026.
