PRODUCT OVERVIEW

8 Ton Spider Crane for Construction & Industrial Lifting

The 8 Ton Spider Crane is a crawler-mounted lifting machine designed for construction, industrial equipment installation, steel structure erection, glass installation and other demanding lifting applications.

The crane provides a maximum working radius of 18 m and a maximum lifting height of 21 m. With overall dimensions of approximately 6150 × 1600 × 2250 mm, it provides an extended working envelope for projects requiring greater reach.

A 5-section telescopic boom, continuous 360° rotation, hydraulic crawler travel and extendable outriggers provide flexible positioning under different job-site conditions.

KEY PERFORMANCE

Lifting Performance, Boom & Mobility

The crane uses a 5-section telescopic boom extending from approximately 5.5 m to 21 m, providing extended vertical and horizontal reach for construction and industrial lifting applications.

The boom angle can be adjusted from 0° to 78°, while continuous 360° rotation allows flexible load positioning around the crane.

The hydraulic crawler system provides high- and low-speed travel modes, with a maximum travel speed of 2.5 km/h and gradeability of up to 25° (36%).

MACHINE DESIGN

Dimensions & Outrigger System

Overall machine dimensions are approximately 6150 × 1600 × 2250 mm, with a self weight of approximately 8.7 tons.

The 1600 mm overall width provides a relatively compact crawler-mounted footprint for a machine with a maximum lifting height of 21 m.

Extendable outriggers increase the support footprint during lifting. Maximum listed outrigger extension is approximately 7000 mm longitudinal, 5700 mm rear and 6700 mm front.
