What is Mini Spider Crane?

Mini spider cranes, named for their arachnid-like appearance due to four outriggers, are compact and versatile lifting machines designed for use in restricted spaces where traditional cranes cannot operate efficiently. They are characterized by their ability to navigate tight spaces and maneuver around obstacles, making them ideal for indoor use, on top of buildings, and in confined construction areas.

 

These cranes are recognized for their compact bodies, allowing them to pass through standard doorways and operate in indoor environments. They typically come with crawlers for movement in confined areas and are often powered by electric motors, promoting a low carbon footprint. Their lightweight nature enables easy transportation to various sites, including rooftops and internal building space
