Forklift flying arm crane and its uses

Forklift flying arm crane, also known as forklift crane, forklift front crane, is a kind of forklift attachment, installed at the front end of the forklift, giving the forklift the function of lifting. It can also lift and walk during lifting operations, and is also called "walkable small crane"! It is flexible and convenient, especially in some narrow space lifting operations and high-altitude operations, forklift flying arm crane has unique advantages! 

What are the advantages of forklift flying arm crane? 

01 Low cost and fast return on investment! The forklift crane is based on the forklift, and a flying arm crane is installed, which immediately turns the forklift into a small crane. Compared with the investment of hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of a crane, a forklift boom can be done with only a few thousand to twenty or thirty thousand yuan. The cost of the forklift itself is low, and combined with a forklift boom, the overall investment is not high. With the addition of a flying arm crane, you can do a lot more work, forklift, hoist, and high altitude, one car for multiple uses, and the rental fee also increases a lot. 

02 Easy to operate, safe and stable

There are generally two ways to install the boom on a forklift: hang it on the forklift mast or insert the fork, and then tighten it with screws. The boom and the forklift are integrated to ensure safety. Both installation methods are simple and can be operated by one person, usually in about 5 minutes. Forklift cranes generally only need two operating levers to complete the lifting: lifting the arm and telescopic arm. Forklift cranes have no outriggers, one cannot rotate, and the hoisted goods are always in line with the forklift counterweight, ensuring the safety of the lifting. Forklift cranes can still lift and walk, unlike cranes that must open the outriggers every time they lift. The telescopic arm of the forklift crane is equipped with an external cylinder, which can also be extended and retracted with load, making loading and unloading of goods more convenient and quick.

03 Small size, wide range of applications.
The size of the forklift itself is very small, and it will not take up a lot of space when equipped with a boom, especially in narrow spaces or places where cranes cannot enter or are not allowed to enter. It has great advantages in lifting operations. With a hanging basket, it can also be used for high-altitude operations. For example, in alleys, low workshops, basements and other areas, it can be used for landscaping, logistics warehousing, loading and unloading of ton bags, door installation, air conditioning installation, street light monitoring installation and maintenance, etc. Forklift cranes are small in size but widely used. They are deeply loved by forklift masters. The usage rate has been increasing in the past two years and has become the standard for forklift operators.

04 High efficiency, can be retracted with load, and can walk with load.
Forklift flying arm cranes are small in size and flexible in movement. They can also walk with goods. For example, when landscaping and installing street light poles, forklifts can lift saplings and move back and forth frequently. Unlike cranes, they must open the outriggers and fix the cranes, and then open the crane's boom to start working. When forklifts do these jobs, there is no need to be so frequent and cumbersome, and work efficiency is greatly improved.
