Hydraulic Truck Cranes

Hydraulic truck cranes are crane systems that are mounted on a truck and use hydraulics to lift and transport heavy objects. These types of cranes are commonly used in construction, industrial, and forestry applications. They provide operators with greater mobility compared to traditionally stationary cranes since they can be moved from job site to job site via truck.

A Practical, Mobile Lifting Solution 

Hydraulic truck cranes consist of two main parts: the crane body and the boom. The crane body is mounted onto a flatbed body or tractor-trailer which allows it to be transported by road. The boom is mounted at an angle on top of the trailer bed and utilizes hydraulic systems to extend outwards, rotate, and reach objects in various directions.

Small-Scale and Large-Scale Versatility

One of the major benefits of hydraulic truck cranes is their versatility which makes them suitable for a wide array of different tasks ranging from small-scale residential projects such as moving furniture to large-scale projects like installing heavy machinery or transporting materials for bridge construction. They also have increased safety features such as load moment indicators (LMI) which measure how much weight is placed on the boom so operators know when it reaches its load limit or if it begins to exceed it thereby reducing any potential hazards due to overloading.

Convenience, Portability, and Flexibility

Hydraulic truck cranes offer convenience, portability, and flexibility making them cost-effective alternatives for lifting heavy loads in areas where traditional stationary or crawler-mounted cranes may not be feasible due to logistical constraints such as lack of space or rough terrain conditions.
