Crane equipment

Cranes have a place of honour in the world of engineering technology. They play a key role in a variety of industries, lifting and moving heavy loads quickly and safely. The use of cranes on construction sites, in cargo transport increases productivity and efficiency of work, and reduces the risk of injury to workers due to minimal contact with the load.

Types and features of cranes

Companies for the production and sale of special equipment offer a wide range of construction cranes of various types. They differ in their design and purpose. Each type of crane is designed to lift and move loads of different configurations and weights. From powerful tower cranes, indispensable on construction sites, to compact and ergonomic mobile cranes, able to work quickly and efficiently on small sites - the variety of cranes is impressive. Choosing and buying the right crane for the right job is sometimes a difficult task. To understand the scope of application of cranes and the functional purpose of a particular model, we suggest to consider their main types and differences.

Tower cranes

Load-lifting, with a large radius of action. They are often used on construction sites for lifting and installing particularly heavy and bulky loads at height - concrete blocks, beams, slabs, steel structures, rebar, scaffolding. The tower crane can also lift finishing materials and construction equipment - concrete pumps, winches and others.

Crawler cranes

Due to their manoeuvrability, these cranes are suitable for difficult terrain, for rough terrain. Crawler provides the crane stability, easy movement and effective work in various extreme conditions.

Manipulator cranes

Mounted on lorries or other vehicles. They have a wide range of movements, so they can easily ‘manipulate’ loads - lift, turn and move them in different directions. Suitable applications for these cranes include construction, trucking and logistics (loading and unloading of goods in warehouses, logistics centres, airports).

Gantry cranes

Heavy lifting equipment. They are used for transporting goods along harbour piers, e.g. unloading containers from ships, or on railway platforms for loading goods into wagons.

Mobile cranes

Compact, manoeuvrable, mobile. They can be quickly moved from place to place thanks to their wheeled or crawler base. The ideal solution for work on construction sites where rapid movement over terrain is required.

Recommendations for selecting a crane

• Determine the type of work you need the crane for.
• Evaluate the lifting capacity of the selected special equipment.
• Take into account the radius of operation of the installation.
• Select the type of crane that corresponds to the conditions of the place of work (port terminal, construction site, etc.).
• Analyse the cost of different crane models. The price of new and second-hand units differs.
• Check that the selected crane has the appropriate quality certification.
• Get advice from experts in the field to choose the option that suits your individual needs.
