Product Overview
The truck mounted crane 8 ton is a highly versatile machine designed for medium-to-heavy lifting tasks across construction, logistics, municipal maintenance, and industrial applications. Integrating a powerful hydraulic crane onto a commercial truck chassis, it combines lifting and transport capabilities in a single, mobile unit. With lifting capacities up to 8,000 kg, working heights up to 17.3 meters, and a choice of telescopic or knuckle boom configurations, this crane delivers reliable performance across diverse job sites . The 8-ton class strikes an ideal balance-offering significantly greater capacity than 3–6 ton models while remaining more maneuverable and cost-effective than larger 10–16 ton units.
Key Advantages
1. Optimal 8-Ton Lifting Capacity
Rated at 8,000 kg (8 tons), this crane handles a wide range of medium-to-heavy loads:
- Construction materials (steel beams, concrete panels, rebar bundles)
- Heavy equipment and machinery
-
Utility poles and transformers
-
Shipping containers and industrial components
At a 2.5-meter working radius, the crane achieves its maximum 8-ton lifting capacity. Capacity decreases with reach-at 7 meters, it lifts 2.5 tons, and at 11.5 meters, it lifts 1.1 tons.
2. High-Quality Crane Components
Leading models feature premium components for reliable performance:
- Hydraulic Systems: HYDAC, Eaton, Vickers, or KYB components
- Boom Material: HG785 high-strength steel for lightweight yet robust construction
-
Boom Section Design: Hexagonal or U-section for improved bending resistance
-
Winch: Italian or European-sourced winch systems for smooth controlled lifting
3. Safety & Control Systems
8-ton truck-mounted cranes incorporate comprehensive safety features:
Torque Limiter / Load Moment Indicator: Overload protection against vehicle rollover or crane damage
Overwind Device: Prevents hook block from contacting boom tip
Slewing Locking Device: Prevents boom sway during vehicle travel
Hydraulic Outriggers: Front and rear outriggers with stepless extension for stability
Emergency Stop & Warning Alarms: Visual and audible alerts for safe operation
Remote Control Options: Manual and wireless remote operation available
4. Compact & Innovative Designs
- Standard 8-Ton Models: Available on single-axle (4×2) chassis with 2-axle configuration, offering a balance of capacity and maneuverability for typical construction and logistics applications
- Compact Minicrane (TRX80): The Jekko TRX80 represents a specialized 8-ton truck-mounted minicrane designed for confined spaces and challenging environments.
Key features include:
Fully electric operation powered by a 48V lithium battery for a full working day
Maximum outreach of 27.2 meters
Crane module under 8 tons-operates on lightweight surfaces
Hydraulic outriggers with stepless extension
Multiple jib options with negative-angle operation down to -60°
Advanced Load Moment Indicator (LMI) with real-time stability feedback
7-inch touchscreen and proportional radio remote control
FAQ
Q1: What is the maximum lifting capacity at full extension?
A1: At maximum radius (11.5–13.6m), the crane lifts approximately 1.1 tons. The full 8-ton capacity is available at a 2.5-meter working radius.
Q2: What are the key differences between telescopic and knuckle boom 8-ton cranes?
A2: Telescopic booms offer greater vertical reach and precise lifting, ideal for construction sites. Knuckle booms provide better flexibility in confined spaces and support a wider range of attachments. Both offer 360° rotation.
Q3: What chassis options are available?
A3: 8-ton cranes are available on Dongfeng, FAW Jiefang, Dayun, and other leading chassis, typically with 4×2 drive, 180–230 HP engines, and cargo body lengths from 4.5 to 6.1 meters.
Q4: Are remote controls available?
A4: Yes. Most 8-ton models offer manual controls with optional wireless remote control for safe, convenient operation.
Q5: What safety features are standard?
A5: Standard safety features include torque limiters (overload protection), overwind devices, slewing locks, outrigger stability monitoring, and emergency stop systems.
Q6: What are the electric operation options?
A6: The Jekko TRX80 offers full electric operation powered by a 48V lithium battery. Standard diesel models are also available from major manufacturers.
