Crane trucks, also known as crane vehicles, are versatile and powerful commercial vehicles that are widely used in various industries. They are vehicles equipped with an integrated crane that can lift and move heavy loads. Crane trucks play an indispensable role in the construction industry and in many other applications.
A Bundeswehr crane truck is specially designed for military use and is characterized by its robustness and off-road capability. This crane vehicle is capable of transporting equipment and materials in difficult terrain and lifting or recovering them if necessary.
How does a crane truck work?
A crane vehicle has a telescopic boom or lattice boom that can be extended as required to achieve a greater lifting height or reach. The hydraulic drives enable precise control of the crane movements, which makes these vehicles extremely efficient.
In the construction industry, crane trucks are indispensable for lifting heavy construction site materials and moving them to the desired location. Overall, crane trucks are crucial for many industries and tasks where heavy loads need to be moved, for example, the German Armed Forces also use crane trucks for military operations and for rescuing victims in disaster situations.
Specialists in special vehicle construction, such as Norrenbrock-Technik, are used to design, plan and construct such crane vehicles, particularly for the special production of cranes and crane trucks.
