Knuckle Boom Cranes

VERSATILITY AND POWER FOR DEMANDING INDUSTRIES

Knuckle boom cranes are designed to provide an excellent power-to-weight ratio, combining lightweight structures with outstanding lifting capacity.

With lifting ranges from 2 Tonne Metres to over 300 Tonne Metres, they are widely used across construction, transport, mining and marine industries. Known for their reliability and safety, these cranes are engineered to meet Australian Standards and deliver consistent performance in demanding conditions.

Modern knuckle boom cranes come equipped with advanced safety systems, including radio remote controls, variable stability systems, capacity monitoring and more – ensuring precise, safe and efficient operation in any environment.

At FCM, our team works with you to achieve the optimal truck and crane combination, tailoring the setup to your specific project requirements.

KNUCKLE BOOM CRANES

The combination of advanced design and engineering provides significant advantages:

– Lightweight construction allows installation even on smaller trucks
Reduced overall weight without compromising strength, maximising lifting capacity

To minimise weight while maintaining durability, knuckle boom cranes incorporate:

– Boom extensions operate sequentially for smooth and efficient reach
– High-grade steel components ensure durability and long service life
– Precision-engineered boom sections with continuous welding for structural integrity
– Specialised hydraulic components designed for heavy-duty use
– Use of special materials for the manufacture of extension cylinders
– Optimised boom profiles for improved lifting performance and safety.

This engineering approach delivers the balance between maximum performance, minimum weight and operator safety, making knuckle boom cranes a versatile solution for tough Australian worksites.
