Electric Truck Cranes

Lifting 800 tons requires a specialized super-heavy lift crane, such as a large crawler or all-terrain crane, used for major civil engineering or industrial projects. Our expertise is in industrial and service truck cranes with capacities typically ranging from 1/4 ton to 20 tons. We focus on providing durable, high-performance solutions for manufacturing, service, and material handling applications within this range.

Electric truck cranes are designed to run off the truck's own electrical system, typically a 12V or 24V DC power source. It's crucial that the vehicle's battery and alternator can handle the high current draw during lifting operations to ensure reliable performance without draining the battery. Professional installation includes ensuring the electrical connections and components are appropriately sized for the crane's power demands.

Electric truck cranes come in a wide range of capacities to suit various needs, from a few hundred pounds to over 10,000 pounds (5 tons). The most common models for service trucks and light industrial use fall in the 2,000 to 6,000-pound range. The right capacity depends on your specific lifting needs, the truck's gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR), and its frame strength.

Mounting a crane requires careful consideration of the truck's specifications. The vehicle's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) must be sufficient to support the crane and its maximum load. The truck's frame must also be strong enough to handle the lifting forces. Professional installation is highly recommended to ensure the mounting is secure and the vehicle remains stable and safe during operation.

Electric truck cranes are vital in industries requiring mobile lifting capabilities. This includes field service and maintenance, construction, utilities for handling transformers, municipal services for lifting pumps and equipment, and in manufacturing settings for loading and unloading heavy parts or machinery. Their versatility makes them essential for any operation that needs to lift heavy items away from a fixed overhead crane.

We pride ourselves on faster-than-average fulfillment. While custom-configured systems can take 8-10 weeks, many of our in-stock crane kits are available to ship within 10 days of your order. This rapid manufacturing and shipping process helps our customers minimize project delays and get their equipment operational much faster than the typical industry standard of up to 40 weeks.
