Today cranes manipulators control a significant share of the cargo transportation market.
This situation is due to the following factors.
.
First, , sky-high prices for gasoline and diesel fuel at gas stations in Ukraine. If we take into account that the manipulator replaces two types of equipment (a mobile crane and a truck or a cargo platform), then the exclusion of one vehicle from the need to refuel carries significant material benefits.
Do not forget that the fuel consumption of modern loader cranes is much lower than that of KRAZ and KAMAZ trucks, whose chassis often form the basis for trucks and mobile cranes.
Secondly , the maneuverability of this special equipment, which can not only drive into narrow, already built-up streets of our settlements and dacha cooperatives, but also turn around, unload the cargo with possible movement over the fence or with a rise to the second floor of a private house under construction.
Third , a wide range of applications. The manipulator is in demand both for the transportation of building materials with preliminary loading and subsequent unloading, and for the delivery of oversized cargo (for example, MAFs), planting perennial trees, and so on and so forth.
Similar services are provided by hundreds of transport companies, but not all can boast of professionalism and an extensive fleet of such special equipment of various carrying capacity. In Dnepropetrovsk, high-quality manipulator crane services are provided by " YAR Kran " - a transport organization with extensive experience in providing such services .
But are there any negative points characteristic of this special equipment?
There are not many of them.
- Firstly, , this is a limited carrying capacity, which in the overwhelming majority of cases is limited by the maximum axle load of the transport component.
- Second , a fixed range limited by boom length and the likelihood of the vehicle overturning. It is not always possible to use additional supports due to the limited external space.
- Third , the use of outdated models. Most of the manipulators brought to Ukraine are used, out-of-date vehicles from Europe.
But, as the growing demand for crane manipulator services shows, the positives far outweigh the negative ones.
