What are Truck Cranes?

A truck crane is a piece of lifting equipment on a customised or standard truck chassis, blending lifting capacity with mobility. It is generally designed to lower, transport and lift materials across industrial projects, logistics and construction sites. Unlike all stationary cranes, this truck-mounted crane travels on highways commuting between job sites without additional transport. This improves utility, providing a combination of truck mobility and traditional crane power.

Why Use Truck Cranes on Your Project?

A truck-mounted crane plays a crucial role in the development of industrial operations and construction projects. They can lift as well as transport heavy objects that are beyond the possibility of any other lifting mechanism on a construction project.
So, what makes a truck crane an indispensable piece of equipment?
Safety and Stability
Equipped with stabilizers or outriggers, truck cranes improve stability during work. Counterweights contribute to maintaining balance and reducing the danger of tipping over. High-end safety features like Load Movement Indicators, make sure that the operator is aware of the maximum lifting capacity, preventing malfunctions and accidents.
Versatility and Mobility
A truck-mounted crane, mounted on wheels, offers excellent mobility on construction sites. This allows operators to place them exactly where needed. Their versatility makes them best suited for several applications, from handling heavy machinery to construction machinery.
Productivity and Quick Setup
Setting up a truck with a crane is an instant process. Operators can transfer the crane to the project site, spread outriggers and get the boom ready for a workday. This swift setup enables construction workers to begin their work earlier, enhancing overall productivity.

What are the applications of a Truck Crane?

The versatility of a truck-mounted crane spreads across several industries, making them an essential part of multiple projects.
Some of the most important applications of a truck crane include:

  • Mining Operations
  • Construction sites
  • Transportation
  • Infrastructure Projects

Key Features of a Truck Crane

The key features of a truck crane or lorry-mounted crane include:
Hydraulic Crane Boom - These cranes comprise an aluminium or steel boom that extends from its base and supports the weight. It can either be telescopic or straight, providing flexibility based on the crane’s application and size.
Hydraulic Systems - The hydraulic system is the machine’s powerhouse, assisting the crane’s movement and lifting operations. Key components of this system include:

  • Hydraulic Pump
  • Hydraulic Fluid
  • Hydraulic Cylinders
  • Control Valves

Jib - The jib is an extended end of the boom that offers additional flexibility and reach to a lorry-mounted truck. It might be adjustable or fixed, with varying angles and lengths to meet the specific needs of a project. It is vital for overcoming obstacles and accurate load positioning.
Counterweights - Located at the rear of a large crane truck, these weights help balance the load, minimizing tipping risks and warranting machine stability.
Outriggers - Outriggers or stabilizers improve stability during operations. They can be operated manually or hydraulically and come in an array of configurations to fit specific requirements.
Operator’s Cab - An operator cab is placed at the top of a truck crane and is the control hub where all the movements are managed by an operator. The cab offers a panoramic view of the site and comes with instruments, safety devices and controls.
