A truck-mounted crane is a relatively new type of lifting tool. Due to its compact structure and small footprint, it can be mounted on a truck, thus becoming a truck-mounted crane transport vehicle. It possesses the same mobility and cargo transport capacity as a regular truck, enabling self-loading and unloading, long-distance transportation, and relatively low operating costs. Therefore, truck-mounted cranes are now widely used in ports, docks, mines, power plants, loading and unloading, and material handling industries, and have received consistent recognition and praise from users.
A truck-mounted crane, also known as a truck-mounted crane transport vehicle, is a perfect combination of a freight truck and a crane, integrating lifting and transportation seamlessly. In contrast, a mobile crane refers to a crane platform mounted on a truck platform that does not have a cargo-carrying function; it is only responsible for lifting and cannot transport goods.
