Truck Crane

A crane mounted on a truck carrier provides more mobility in comparison with other types of cranes. A truck mounted crane has two parts: the carrier, often referred to as the Lower, and the lifting component which includes the boom, referred to as the Upper. These are mated together through a turntable, allowing the upper to swing from side to side. Modern hydraulic truck cranes are usually single-engine machines, with the same engine powering the undercarriage and the crane. Generally, truck cranes are able to travel on highways, eliminating the need for special equipment to transport the crane. XCMG produces truck cranes as well, which you can see below.
