Snorkel Knuckle Boom Lift Fresno

A knuckle boom crane looks similar to a typical crane. The main difference is that the boom could fold back similar to a finger since the boom articulates at the "knuckle" near the middle. This allows the machinery to be able to transform into a compact size for maneuvering and storage.



Knuckle boom crane arms are somewhat a little lighter than boom truck cranes. These crane arms are made to enable more payloads to be carried on the back of the vehicle it is mounted on. Most knuckle boom cranes are mounted behind the cab. This leaves the entire bed of the truck empty.



Interestingly enough, smaller models of knuckle boom cranes could be used without a certified crane operator, as long as the maximum capacity is less than 15,000 lbs. or if the maximum boom length is less than 25 feet long.



Control systems for these cranes are often different. Some could control from the ground, radio remote control, seated and stand up control. The radio remote systems can run the crane as well as starting it. Moreover, numerous models come outfitted with a computer readout system that instantly provides system readouts reporting if the crane is overloaded or not.
