Knuckle boom cranes
PALFINGER’s knuckle boom cranes are designed to lift high loads with the jib extended and to provide the operator with great flexibility during lifting operations. Among other functions, they are used for pipe and boat handling. Thanks to their outstanding flexibility in radius, our knuckle boom cranes make it easy and safe to load and unload vessels and handle different materials. The improved level of control makes the crane ideal for offshore lifting operations in higher sea states.
Low in weight and with a compact size in parking position, the knuckle boom cranes from PALFINGER MARINE are sleek and powerful tools for all kinds of working environments. Available with lifting moments from130–30,000 kNm and many optional features, our knuckle boom cranes are designed to individual needs and requirements.
