Product Overview
This series of articulating knuckle boom cranes, also known as articulated boom cranes, features a multi-section, jointed boom system that can fold back like a finger. This design provides unparalleled compactness and operational flexibility, making it the ideal solution for precise lifting tasks in confined spaces, urban environments, and complex terrains.





Key Advantages
1. Superior Articulation & Flexibility
The unique jointed boom allows the crane to reach up, over, and around obstacles, enabling horizontal, vertical, and even negative-angle lifts that are impossible for straight-boom cranes.
2. Exceptional Compactness
When folded, the crane occupies minimal space, significantly enhancing the mobility and transportability of the carrier vehicle. It is perfect for working in tight warehouses, factories, or city streets.
3. Precise & Efficient Control
Fully hydraulic drive combined with electro-hydraulic proportional control ensures smooth movements and excellent micro-positioning. Optional radio remote controls allow operators to choose the best vantage point and stay clear of hazardous zones.
4. Robust Lifting Performance
The product line covers a wide range, with maximum lifting capacities from 3.3T to 30T and hydraulic outreach up to 21.3 meters, meeting diverse needs from light material handling to heavy equipment installation. Advanced octagonal boom designs on select models reduce dead weight while increasing structural strength.
5. Intelligent Safety Systems
Standard or optional features include moment limiters (overload protection), height limiters, and high-pressure filters to ensure hydraulic system cleanliness and operational safety. High-end models integrate Active Oscillation Suppression (AOS) to enhance stability and reduce boom sway.
