Self Loading Palfinger Crane Trucks

PHT processes Newcastle and the Hunter Valleys largest fleet of self-loading knuckle boom crane trucks. The Palfinger crane trucks vary in size from 12 tonne metre to 66 tonne metre capacity.

One of benefits of self loading crane trucks is that they offer the advantage of being able to load, transport and subsequently unload the cargo using the same piece of equipment.

The cranes are set up over a range of rigid and semi trailer combinations, with the cranes mounted on the rear of the tray or behind the cab positions in order to necessitate varying lifting and transportation requirements for multiple applications.
    

The crane mounted prime movers offer the ability to swap the towing trailer between either a standard trailer, extendable trailer, extendable step deck or low loader in order to transport certain wide, long or high oversize loads. Those mounted on the rear of the rigid vehicles allow for the towing of dog trailers also as required.

The large crane trucks are fitted with radio remote controls which allow the operator the ability to stand in various locations during the loading and unloading process for both added safety and to greater assist the customer with the requirements of the lift.

With the added ability to swap between various trailing units, the self loading crane trucks offer an extremely diverse resource for many varying industry applications, particularly those in and around the building and construction, engineering and infrastructure, marine and railway maintenance sectors.

The Palfinger PK66000G crane is the largest in the Harrison fleet and is the largest Palfinger self-loading knuckle boom crane in Australia. Together with the other large knuckle boom cranes mounted on the rigid vehicles in the fleet, they offer a new dimension in relocation and lifting services.
