A truck-mounted crane (truck-mounted crane transport vehicle) is an engineering vehicle with both lifting and transport functions, and is widely used in construction, logistics, municipal administration, rescue and other fields.

Una grúa montada en camión (vehículo de transporte con grúa montada en camión) es un vehículo de ingeniería con funciones de elevación y transporte, y se usa ampliamente en construcción, logística, administración municipal, rescate y otros campos.

The following are its main application scenarios and operation skills:

1. Main application scenarios of truck-mounted crane

Principales escenarios de aplicación de la grúa montada en camión

 Urban construction and construction site:/Construcción urbana y obra:
Truck-mounted cranes are widely used in the installation and maintenance of high-rise buildings, especially in buildings in densely populated areas in urban centers, where truck-mounted cranes are the only viable tool. They are mainly used to hoist building materials (such as steel bars, prefabricated components, pipes, etc.), construction equipment, etc. They can also be used to lift workers to high altitudes for work.
When working in narrow construction sites, it can replace large cranes and improve flexibility.
 Port and logistics transportation:/ Transporte portuario y logístico:
Load and unload containers, heavy equipment and other cargo into ship holds or train cars to improve terminal operation efficiency.
 Highway and railway construction:/ Construcción de carreteras y ferrocarriles:
In highway and railway construction, it is mainly used for lifting tracks and bridge components, and assisting in the laying of large-scale infrastructure.
In road transport, truck cranes are mainly used for rescue and towing work.
 Factory equipment relocation and installation:/ Reubicación e instalación de equipos de fábrica:
Move large mechanical equipment to reduce labor costs and safety risks.
 Emergency rescue:/Rescate de emergencia:
In traffic accidents or natural disasters, quickly clear obstacles and lift damaged vehicles.
 Municipal administration and landscaping:/Administración municipal y paisajismo:
Used for tree transplanting, street light installation, pipeline maintenance and other operations.
 Energy:/Energía:
Truck mounted cranes are mainly used in industries such as electricity, oil and gas. In power plants, truck mounted cranes are often used to maintain power generation equipment, such as installing and removing power generation equipment such as gas turbines. In oil and gas production, truck mounted cranes can be used to lift and install pipelines and equipment.
 Military and special operations:/Operaciones militares y especiales:
Used for special tasks such as military equipment repair and maintenance and battlefield rescue.
 Entertainment and Special Events:/Entretenimiento y eventos especiales:
Truck mounted cranes can be used to hoist sets and equipment in film and television productions, as well as to build stages and equipment at sporting events and concerts.

2. Operation skills and precautions of truck crane

Habilidades de operación y precauciones del camión grúa

1). Pre-operation inspection/Inspección previa a la operación
Before operation, you must be familiar with the structure and performance of the truck crane, including parameters such as model, rated lifting capacity, arm length, balance weight, working radius, etc., understand the working principle and usage of the truck crane, as well as the safety protection measures of the truck crane.
Before operation, it is necessary to check the working status of the truck crane, such as the engine, brake, oil pressure, etc., to ensure that it can work normally.
Before operation, it is necessary to mark the position of the lifting point and check whether the lifting rope is firm.
It is necessary to master the lifting posture to ensure smooth and safe lifting.
Check the hydraulic oil level (should be between H and L), wire rope wear, outrigger stability, etc.
Make sure the operating handle is in the neutral position to avoid accidental movement during starting.
2). Lifting operation skills/Habilidades de operación de elevación
Outrigger fixation: Before operation, the outriggers must be fully extended and heavy pressure must be applied to ensure that they are stable and safe to prevent the vehicle from overturning.
Suction cup fits the object: gently place the suction cup on the goods, so that the suction cup is completely in contact with the surface of the object to ensure the adsorption force.
Trial lifting test: After confirming that the suction cup is correctly attached, turn on the unloading button of the truck crane, slowly raise the boom, pause when the weight is 10-20cm off the ground, check the stability before continuing to lift.
Avoid side pulling: It is strictly forbidden to pull or drag heavy objects diagonally to prevent the boom from deforming or the wire rope from breaking.
Control speed: The joystick should be moved slowly to avoid sudden start that may cause the heavy object to shake.
3). Special environment operations/Operaciones en entornos especiales
Bad weather: Operations should be stopped when wind speed is >10m/s or in thunderstorms to prevent the boom from getting out of control.
Near electric wires: Keep a safe distance to avoid electric shock accidents.
4). Vehicle collection and maintenance/Recogida y mantenimiento de vehículos
After the operation, retract the outriggers and boom and turn off the power take-off.
Regularly replace hydraulic oil and check wire rope wear to ensure long-term and stable operation of the equipment.
3. Purchase and optimization suggestions/Sugerencias de compra y optimización

Select the tonnage according to the working conditions: small tonnage (below 8T) is suitable for light operations, and large tonnage (above 12T) is suitable for heavy lifting.
Oil pump type: Double pump supplies oil faster than single pump and is suitable for high-intensity operations.
Outrigger configuration: Double-chamber outriggers have a larger span and better stability than single-chamber outriggers.
Intelligent functions: give priority to models with functions such as “automatic hook collection” and “dual-speed winch” to improve efficiency.
4. Summary/Resumen

Truck-mounted cranes have become important equipment in modern engineering due to their strong mobility and multifunctional integration. Regular inspection and maintenance are the effective ways to ensure the long-term safety, stability and efficiency of truck-mounted cranes. Correct technical guidance and practical operation procedures can help operators better use truck-mounted cranes. Reasonable selection of models, standardized operation and good maintenance can greatly improve the safety and efficiency of operations.

Las grúas montadas en camión se han convertido en equipos importantes en la ingeniería moderna debido a su gran movilidad e integración multifuncional. La inspección y el mantenimiento regulares son las formas de garantizar la seguridad, la estabilidad y la eficiencia a largo plazo de la grúa en el trabajo. Una guía técnica correcta y unos procedimientos operativos prácticos pueden ayudar a los operadores a utilizar mejor la grúa sobre camión. La selección razonable de modelos de máquinas, la operación estandarizada y un buen mantenimiento pueden mejorar en gran medida la seguridad y la eficiencia operativa.
