Load Capacity Safety Crane Truck for Factory Direct Exporting
Product Description
A crane truck, also known as a boom truck or mobile crane, is a specialized vehicle that combines a truck chassis with a crane mounted on it. It is designed to transport heavy loads and provide lifting capabilities in various industries such as construction, shipping, logistics, and utilities.
Here are some key features and components typically found in a crane truck:
Truck Chassis: The truck chassis serves as the base of the crane truck and provides mobility. It includes the engine, cab, wheels, and other components necessary for transportation.
Crane Boom: The crane boom is the main lifting arm of the crane truck. It can be telescopic or knuckle-boom style, depending on the model. Telescopic booms extend in sections, allowing for greater reach, while knuckle-boom cranes have articulating sections that provide flexibility in lifting and maneuvering.
Load Capacity: Crane trucks come in various load capacities, ranging from a few tons to several dozen tons or more. The load capacity determines the maximum weight that the crane can lift safely.
Outriggers: Outriggers are extendable supports located on the sides or rear of the crane truck. They provide stability and balance when the crane is lifting heavy loads. Outriggers are typically deployed before lifting operations to prevent tipping or instability.
Operator's Cab: The operator's cab is where the crane operator controls the lifting operations. It is usually situated near the rear of the truck, providing the operator with a clear view of the lifting area.
Controls and Safety Features: Crane trucks are equipped with control systems that enable precise lifting and maneuvering. These controls can be hydraulic, electric, or a combination of both. Safety features such as load moment indicators, overload protection systems, and anti-two block devices are incorporated to ensure safe and efficient crane operations.
