I. Product Definition and Types
1. Definition: An electric truck crane is a special vehicle that mounts a lifting device on a truck chassis. It utilizes an electric drive system to perform lifting, slewing, and luffing actions for hoisting and transporting various heavy objects.
2. Types:
• By Structural Form: It can be classified into truck-mounted cranes (with lifting devices mounted on general or specialized truck chassis) and rubber-tired cranes (featuring rubber-tired chassis for better mobility and off-road capability).
• By Purpose: It includes general-purpose electric truck cranes (suitable for various hoisting scenarios) and specialized electric truck cranes (such as truck-mounted loaders, primarily used for cargo loading, unloading, and short-distance transportation).
• By Lifting Capacity: It ranges from small (with lifting capacities generally from a few tons to over ten tons), medium (with lifting capacities from over ten tons to several tens of tons), to large (with lifting capacities exceeding several tens of tons) electric truck cranes.
II. Product Characteristics and Advantages
1. Environmentally Friendly and Energy-Efficient: Utilizing electric drive, it reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions, aligning with the trend of green and sustainable development.
2. Easy Operation: The electric system provides precise control, allowing operators to easily perform various crane actions through control panels or remote controllers.
3. Low Maintenance Costs: The electric system has a relatively simple structure with fewer wearing parts, resulting in lower maintenance and upkeep costs.
4. Low Noise: It generates significantly less noise during operation compared to fuel-driven cranes, improving the working environment.
5. High Adaptability: It can be equipped with various lifting accessories and attachments, such as grabs and electromagnetic suction pads, to suit different material hoisting needs.
III. Product Composition and Working Principle
1. Composition:
• Lifting Device: Includes hoisting mechanisms, luffing mechanisms, slewing mechanisms, etc., for lifting, luffing, and slewing heavy objects.
• Truck Chassis: Provides mobility and stability for the crane, typically using specialized or general truck chassis.
• Electrical System: Comprises electric motors, controllers, battery packs, etc., to supply power and control signals to the crane.
• Operator's Cab: Where operators control the crane's operations, equipped with various control handles, buttons, and displays.
2. Working Principle:
• Operators issue instructions to the electrical system through control devices in the operator's cab.
• The electrical system controls the operation of electric motors based on the instructions, driving the various mechanisms of the lifting device.
• The lifting device achieves lifting, luffing, and slewing of heavy objects through wire ropes, pulleys, and other transmission components.
IV. Application Scenarios and Market Demand
1. Application Scenarios:
• Construction Sites: Used for hoisting building materials and equipment.
• Logistics and Warehousing: Employed for cargo loading, unloading, and transportation.
• Ports and Docks: Utilized for container loading, unloading, and stacking.
• Municipal Engineering: Applied for streetlight installation, billboard hoisting, etc.
2. Market Demand:
• With the strengthening of environmental protection policies and the development of new energy technologies, the market demand for electric truck cranes is gradually increasing.
• In urban construction and logistics sectors, there is a strong demand for efficient and environmentally friendly lifting equipment.
• Electric truck cranes are becoming increasingly popular in the market due to their environmental friendliness, energy efficiency, and ease of operation.
V. Product Selection and Precautions
1. Selection Criteria:
• Lifting Capacity: Choose an appropriate lifting capacity based on operational requirements.
• Working Radius: Consider space limitations at the worksite and select a suitable working radius.
• Lifting Height: Select an appropriate lifting height based on the height requirements of the hoisted objects.
• Power Supply Conditions: Ensure a stable power supply at the worksite to meet the electric truck crane's power needs.
2. Precautions:
• Operator Qualifications: Operators should undergo professional training and obtain corresponding operational certificates.
• Safety Inspections: Conduct comprehensive safety inspections of the crane before use to ensure all components are in good condition.
• Working Environment: Avoid operating in severe weather or hazardous conditions to ensure operational safety.
• Maintenance and Upkeep: Regularly maintain the crane to extend its service life.
