Loader cranes help to load and unload trucks and other vehicles. Loader cranes make an impression thanks to their operator friendliness and high level of cost-efficiency. Various equipment (rope winch, rotator, gripper, crane fork) expands the loader crane's field of application.
A truck loader crane, truck-mounted crane, HIAB, or ‘crane truck’ is a crane that is mounted to a truck, either just behind the cab or just behind the deck.
It’s designed to lift goods on and off the truck and means that a driver can deliver goods exactly where is required without the need for a forklift, telehandler, or separate crane.
Truck loader cranes come in two types: knuckle boom type with two booms, and a single boom with a cable and moving hook attached
Rather than having a second (outer) boom, some cranes have a cable to lower the load.
The crane is only designed for self-unloading and loading and is not designed for dragging, pressing, lateral pulling, or any other task except lifting.
How do you stabilize a truck loader crane?
Because the crane lifts heavy objects onto the truck, the truck itself needs to be stabilized so that it doesn’t tip over. This is done using retractable outriggers or legs.
When lifting heavy objects, huge forces can be transmitted through these outriggers, so it’s important that the ground underneath them is solid and stable.
It must be able to support the complete load, including the crane and truck, the rigging, the items being lifted, and the effect of any movements such as extending the boom and lifting and lowering the load.
