All-Terrain Crane Hire Mackay
What is an all-terrain crane?
An all-terrain crane is a powerful piece of machinery that’s a hybrid of a rough terrain crane and a mobile truck crane. They are designed especially to perform well on all types of terrain and in all weather conditions. All-terrain cranes are usually equipped with a 4-wheel drive system and are powered by one or two engines. Cranes of this type combine the best features of mobile truck and rough terrain cranes, delivering on both mobility and manoeuvrability.

Limitations of an all-terrain crane
All-terrain cranes have some drawbacks. One disadvantage is that they are generally extremely heavy, and heavier than alternative types of crane such as rough terrain cranes. Another limitation is that all-terrain cranes typically require outriggers to ensure their stability, which can mean added inconvenience and work.
What is an all-terrain crane used for?
All-terrain cranes are versatile. They have a range of heavy haulage applications and can be used for multiple jobs on a construction site. All-terrain cranes are frequently deployed for:
