6. Question:
We have bad roads at the construction site, crawler excavators and bulldozers pass by, and wheeled vehicles often slip and have to be pulled out. Is it possible to order a crawler crane from you so that it travels as easily everywhere as our excavator with a bulldozer?
Answer:
A crawler crane is very different from earthmoving equipment and it needs a dense and level road for travel and an even denser and more level area in its places of work. The main difference between a crawler crane and a truck crane is that it can move with a load, which is extremely important in the installation and logistics of a construction site.
Also, the crawler crane has better lifting characteristics due to its higher dead weight. However, it should be noted that delivery of a crawler crane takes place on special trawls and is more expensive compared to delivery of a truck crane.
Therefore, a crawler crane should be considered for a long-term lease, more than a month. If you do not have the opportunity to prepare the roads, then it is better for you to use a truck crane on an all-wheel drive chassis - an all-terrain vehicle.
