An articulating crane, also known as a knuckle boom crane, is a type of crane that uses articulated (jointed) arms or booms to lift and move heavy loads. The arm of the crane has multiple segments that are connected by "knuckles," which allow the crane to move with high flexibility and precision. This articulation gives the crane an extended reach and the ability to lift and place loads in tight or difficult-to-access spaces. Key Features of an Articulating Crane: Articulated Arms: The crane has multiple sections that are connected by joints, similar to a human arm with elbow joints. These allow the crane to bend and extend, providing versatile movement. Compact Design: Articulating cranes are often more compact than traditional cranes, making them ideal for use in confined spaces, urban environments, or for loading and unloading from trucks. Hydraulic Systems: The crane typically uses a hydraulic system to operate the arms and extend the boom. This provides the power needed for lifting heavy loads while maintaining smooth movement. Versatile Operation: Due to its flexibility, the articulating crane can move loads horizontally, vertically, and even around corners, making it particularly useful for handling materials in locations that require a high degree of manoeuvrability. Used for Various Applications: These cranes are commonly used in construction, forestry, and transportation industries, and they are often mounted on trucks, trailers, or other vehicles for mobility.
