Snorkel Knuckle Boom Lift El Paso

The knuckle boom crane is somewhat similar to a typical crane with one key difference. The boom is capable of folding back like a finger. In essence, the boom articulates at the "knuckle" near the middle. This enables the machinery to be able to transform into a compact size for storage and maneuvering.



Knuckle boom crane arms are somewhat a bit lighter compared to boom truck cranes. These crane arms are made to enable more payloads to be lifted on the back of the vehicle it is mounted on. Most knuckle boom cranes are mounted at the rear of the cab. This leaves the whole 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 pounds or if the boom's maximum length is less than 25 feet long.



Control systems for these cranes are usually different. Some could control from the ground, radio remote control, stand up and seated control. The radio remote systems could run the crane and starting it. Furthermore, many models come outfitted with a computer readout system that immediately provides system readouts reporting if the crane is overloaded or not.
