Snorkel Knuckle Boom Lift Arlington

The knuckle boom crane is quite similar to a typical crane with one main distinction. The boom can fold back similar to a finger. In essence, the boom articulates at the "knuckle" near the middle. This allows the equipment to be able to transform into a compact size for maneuvering and storage.



Knuckle boom crane arms are quite a bit lighter than boom truck cranes. These crane arms are made to allow more payloads to be lifted on the back of the vehicle it is mounted on. Nearly all knuckle boom cranes are mounted behind the cab. This leaves the entire bed of the truck empty.



Smaller models of knuckle boom cranes could be used without a licensed crane operator, if the load capacity of the machine is less than 15,000 lbs. or if the boom's maximum length is less than 25 feet long.



There are different kinds of control systems for the cranes. Like for instance, there is radio remote control, control from the ground, seated and stand up control. The radio remote systems can run the crane and starting it. Additionally, numerous models come outfitted with a computer readout system which instantly provides system readouts reporting if the crane is overloaded or not.
