The mobile crawler crane is specific crane designed with either a telescopic boom or a lattice boom. These move upon the crawlers tracks. Because this crane is self-propelled, it could move around particular work locations without the need for a lot of set up. Due to their huge size and weight, crawler cranes are are difficult to transport from one location to another and are fairly expensive. The crawler's tracks offer the equipment stability and allow the crane to function without the use of outriggers, however, there are several models that do use outriggers. Also, the tracks provide the equipment's movement. Early Mobile Cranes The very first mobile cranes were originally mounted to train cars. They moved along short rail lines which were particularly built for the project. When the 20th century arrived, the crawler tractor changed and this brought the introduction of crawler tracks to the construction industry and the agricultural business. Not long after, the crawler tracks were adopted by excavators and this further showcased the versatility of the machine. It was not long after when crane companies decided that the crawler track market was a safe bet. The First Crawler Crane Northwest Engineering, a crane manufacturer within the USA, was the first to mount its crane on crawler tracks in the nineteen twenties. It described the new machinery as a "locomotive crane, independent of tracks and moveable under its own power." By the mid-1920s, crawler tracks had become the preferred means of traction for heavy crane operations. The Speedcrane The Moore Speedcrane, developed by Ray and Charles Moore of Chicago, Illinois was one of the first attempts to replicate the rails for cranes. Made within Fort Wayne, Indiana, the Speedcrane was fifteen ton, wheel-mounted, steam-powered crane. In nineteen twenty five, a company referred to as Manitowoc Shipbuilding Co, from Manitowoc, Wisconsin recognized the marketability and the potential of the tracked crane. They decided to team up with the Moore brothers so as to manufacture it and go into business. The Crown RC 5500 Series was built on a vision that focuses on realistic challenges in the workplace. This ground-breaking model features intelligent technology and best-in-class ergonomics and comfort. Keeping the operator comfortable and safe usually results in more efficiency. 3-Wheel Stand-Up Counterbalanced Truck The company produces a 3-Wheel Stand-Up Counterbalanced Truck in capacities ranging from three thousand, 3500\three thousand five hundred and 4000 lb. capacity. Performance Versatility The Crown RC 5500 excels in a busy work environment. This model achieves greatness whether it is operating on the dock or in an aisle. It is designed to offer the operator unmatched visibility, unparalleled ride control and the ultimate ergonomics. The exclusive FlexRide technology provided by Crown offers a suspended floorboard so as to eliminate much of the vibration and shock which operators need to work with every day. Interestingly enough, many of the competitor's sit-down truck models could not match the lessened impact levels provided by the RC 5500 Series. Visibility - Maximum visibility is offered for the operator from a side-stance position in both directions of travel. A low-profile offers a clear view mast as well a sculpted chassis allows the operators to be able to clearly see all around the truck, the fender and the fork tips. This optimum view lessens damage and enhances overall safety. Speed - Top travel speeds are amongst the best within the industry and achieved through Access 1 2 3 Technology combined with the latest AC traction control. Performance levels could be custom tuned to be able to match the operator's skill level or the application needs. Operator Safety & Comfort The suspended floorboard provided by Crown's FlexRide greatly improves overall work performance by enhancing comfort and fatigue is significantly reduced. The constant vibration and shock could result in extreme operator exhaustion for those exposed to those motions on a daily basis particularly during travel over rough floors, dock plates and expansion joints.
