Knuckle Boom Crane
Within Europe, Knuckle boom cranes have been extremely popular, since the streets are normally narrow. There are a lot greater restrictions on trucks within Europe than there are in North America also.

It has taken some time for knuckle boom crane lifts to break into the North American market, but today, more contractors and more business owners are familiar with the benefits of utilizing knuckle boom cranes and thus, the demand for this specific type of machine has increased significantly.

Benefits of Knuckle Boom Technology
An articulated crane or a knuckle boom is similar in looks to a typical crane. The main difference is that similar to a finger, the boom bends at the knuckle in the middle, hence the name. This particular machinery extends a long way but is also capable of folding down to a compact size. These are some of the benefits of using a knuckle boom rather than a telescopic or stiff-boom crane.

The knuckle boom provides an increased payload because it is more compact and lighter to run. These cranes offer a lower profile too. To be able to transport loads farther, a stiff-boom crane has to be extended higher. A knuckle boom offers horizontal extensions that allow it to reach longer distances at a lower height.

A telescopic crane was required more in the past to do lots of jobs. These tasks can be done now using an articulated crane because of the long reaches which compete with telescopic cranes. The reach of knuckle booms has increased in the past decade. Some models are able to extend as far as 92' or 28 meters and even higher.

One of the major advantages of the knuckle boom crane is the precise control the operators have over their cargo. Loads can be placed with much greater efficiency on the ground or on the roof or on higher floors of buildings. Lastly, knuckle boom crane are very versatile as they are easy to maneuver around tricky obstacles on a jobsite.
