Truck Mounted Crane

A truck mounted crane, commonly known as a loader crane or crane truck, is a specialized vehicle that integrates a hydraulic crane system onto a commercial truck chassis, combining lifting and transportation capabilities in a single unit. The system is powered via a power take-off (PTO) from the vehicle engine, driving the hydraulic system for cargo lifting, rotation, and positioning. Widely used in construction, logistics, municipal maintenance, road recovery, and power repair – the ideal solution for mobile material handling.

1. Dual Function – Transport & Lift

Truck mounted cranes integrate transportation and lifting functions, eliminating the need for separate forklifts or mobile cranes for cargo loading/unloading. Compared to traditional "truck + forklift/crane" operations, this significantly reduces equipment costs and on-site waiting time, greatly improving logistics efficiency.

 

2. High Mobility – Rapid Site Transfer

Built on a commercial truck chassis, these cranes can travel on highways at normal speeds without requiring specialized transport equipment. Ideal for dispersed job sites and wide-area operations, significantly reducing equipment mobilization time.

 

3. Two Boom Types – Flexible Adaptation

  • Telescopic Boom (Straight Boom): Features wire rope hoisting mechanism, large working radius, and high vertical positioning precision – suitable for open-space loading operations. More economical and most widely used
  • Knuckle Boom (Folding Boom): Articulated boom design with high work efficiency – can be fitted with grapples, baskets, and other attachments. Suitable for confined spaces like warehouses and factories

 

4. Safety & Stability – Multi-Layer Protection

Truck-mounted cranes incorporate comprehensive safety systems:

  • H-Type Hydraulic Outriggers: Deployed during operation for stable platform; load capacity must be reduced when outriggers cannot be fully extended
  • Overload Protection: Intelligent load weighing systems with automatic overload alarms
  • Emergency Response: Immediate load lowering if outrigger settlement or vehicle tilt occurs

  • Test Lift Procedure: Required for first lift on soft ground or when approaching lifting limits – verify outriggers and stability

 

5. Specialized Chassis – Reliable Support

Crane-specific chassis feature reinforced frames to withstand the concentrated loads from the crane system. For example, the FAW J6L 6×4 crane truck features a double-layer high-strength frame with 25-ton GVWR, powered by a 280-320HP diesel engine mated to a 10-speed transmission with dedicated PTO interface.

 

Operation & Maintenance

 

Operating Standards

01/

Site Selection: Choose hard, level ground allowing full outrigger extension

02/

Outrigger Setup: Extend all outriggers and lift wheels off ground; outrigger pads must not sink (use timber if needed)

03/

Test Lift: Required for first lift on soft ground or near lifting limits – verify outriggers and stability

04/

Emergency: Immediately lower load if outrigger settlement or vehicle tilt occurs – address hazards before continuing

05/

Shutdown: Retract and lock all mechanisms; return controls to neutral; disengage PTO

How the 6.3 Ton Class Fits Your Work

Rated capacity is measured at a short radius, so the practical question is never "6.3 tons of what" but "how much at how far". As a working rule, a loader crane delivers roughly a quarter of its rated figure at mid-radius, which is normal for the class and true of every manufacturer. That makes the 6.3 ton class the right match for palletized building materials, machinery reloading, utility poles, fencing kits and general site supplies. When the job needs more muscle, the same chassis philosophy steps up to the 8 ton crane on an ISUZU chassis and further to the 16 ton HOWO-chassis crane that we export to Saudi Arabia with SABER certification.

Chassis, Certification and Export

The crane is matched to ISUZU, HOWO or Foton chassis depending on your market: ISUZU for parts availability and resale value, HOWO for budget strength, Foton where local service supports it. Left- or right-hand drive, 4×2 or 6×4, and the emission standard are specified per destination. For Russia and the CIS we supply EAC / CU-TR conformity documents; for Saudi Arabia we handle SABER (PC + SC) certification - tell us the destination early because certification runs on its own timeline. See our overview of truck-mounted crane advantages for how the configuration choices affect daily operation.

Ordering and What to Send Us

To quote correctly we need four things: your working radius and typical load weight, the chassis preference or "recommend one for me", the destination country, and whether the crane must fold compactly for height-restricted transport. With that we come back with a matched crane-and-chassis combination and the load chart that matters - not just the headline number. Send your requirement through the inquiry form and our Jining team replies with drawings and the export plan.

FAQ

Q1: How much can a 6.3 ton truck-mounted crane actually lift at 10 m?
A1: The 6.3 t rating applies at minimum radius. At working radius the load chart governs, typically around a quarter of the rated figure at mid-radius. Ask for the load chart of the exact configuration before comparing offers - two "6.3 ton" cranes can differ substantially at 10 m.

Q2: What is the difference between this crane and an 8 ton model?
A2: Beyond the extra capacity class, the 8 t unit usually pairs with a heavier chassis and a longer boom for bigger radii. If your daily loads stay under roughly 2 tons at working radius, the 6.3 t class is the more economical choice; step up to the 8 ton ISUZU model when loads grow.

Q3: Should I choose a knuckle boom or a straight telescopic boom?
A3: Knuckle booms fold compactly, cycle faster and work over obstacles - best for loading and urban jobs. Straight booms reach further in one line - best for open-yard lifting. Many fleets run one of each; see the articulated crane truck for the folding configuration.

Q4: Which certifications do you provide for export?
A4: EAC / CU-TR conformity documents for Russia and the CIS, and SABER (PC + SC) certification for Saudi Arabia. Tell us the destination when you inquire so certification starts in parallel with production instead of after it.

Q5: Can we buy the crane without the truck?
A5: Yes. The crane can be supplied mounted on our chassis or as an upper structure for mounting on a locally purchased chassis; both versions are tested before shipment and mounting drawings are provided.

  • Inspect all hose connections and seals for leaks
  • Check fasteners (crossmember-to-chassis, slewing ring-to-crossmember connections)
  • Verify PTO control switch and pressure gauge operation

  • Check hydraulic oil and lubricant levels

  • Inspect wire rope and fittings (rope clamps secure, rope in sheave grooves, wear/breakage condition)

  • Check synchronization wire rope tension – adjust if loose
