Telescopic Truck Cranes – An Instance Of Extreme Engineering

Telescopic truck cranes are one of examples of best engineering that shows how far human can go for its development and in search of comfortable living. These cranes built with premium quality component parts are meant to serve heavy purposes like lifting extremely heavy objects.

These days’ telescopic truck cranes are coming with expert features such as FM radio controls. They are improved with every model and have been provided with the best features, which makes them one of the most demanded cranes in construction industry. These truck cranes are equipped with strong hexagonal booms. This feature eliminates boom flex, extension slippage and side to side movement for easier function. For better functionality, telescoping and articulating truck cranes are being provided in 2,000 to 14,000-pounds.

Telescopic cranes that come with hydraulic feature are powered to reach up to 28-feet and 400-degree power rotation (minimum). However, this powerful feature is available on selected models only. So, for those looking for equipments to accomplish heavy work at site, need to get specification while buying or hiring them.

Many models of these heavy equipments come with precision crane control along with standard proportional radio remote control. This is an added advantage for precise operation while lifting object. With this feature crane can be operated with remote without actually sitting in the driver’s seat. Additionally, these truck cranes are quick to accomplish its job as they have a line speed of up to 60-feet per minute and can quickly convert from two parts to single part line operation.

Hydraulic Truck Cranes For Herculean Tasks

Cranes and its development have covered miles since it was first introduced. Several achievements of cranes have been recorded so far with each step of advancement made in their mechanism. Among those achievements hydraulic truck cranes are one of them.

With enormous power and capacity hydraulic truck cranes have become a must to have equipment at places where heavy work is carried out. It can lift thousands of pounds by implementing a simple concept of carrying forces from one point to another using fluid. The most astonishing aspect of these cranes is that they are very simply designed, yet can perform herculean tasks with as easy as ever before. Due to its massive power, some of those tasks are now possible to accomplish which once used to be impossible.

Truck cranes are capable to do extremely heavy work such as raising heavy equipments in manufacturing industries or factories, lifting multi-tons of bridge beams for flyover or highways work, and sometimes raising and placing beachfront quarters onto stilts. Apart from construction and factories, hydraulic truck cranes are also used in some unique task, like shifting killer whales from water tanks to some other location.

Hydraulic cranes can perform surprising tasks that are at times hard to believe the weight it actually lifts because of the ease it moved the multi tons object. However, the power of these equipments varies with the models provided. Still, on an average a 40-ton crane can easily raise 40 tons of objects, which is similar to 80,000 lb or 36,287 kg.
