1.6-Ton Hydraulic Steel-Handling Knuckle Boom Crane (ZT160Z-2AT)
Scrap metal recycling facilities often face challenges such as slow material handling and limited operational reach. Many mobile handling units are cumbersome to set up and require specific site conditions. This stationary hydraulic knuckle boom crane serves as an efficient alternative to traditional handling equipment, enabling stable sorting and loading of scrap metal, thereby significantly improving operational throughput. The unit features a maximum rated lifting capacity of 1,600 kg (including the grapple), a maximum lifting moment of 16 ton-meters, a 380° slewing range, a maximum working radius of 10 meters, and a working height of up to 12 meters. Operating at a hydraulic system pressure of 28 MPa, it requires only 1,000 mm of installation space and is designed for mounting on a fixed platform. Unlike forestry cranes (designed for timber handling), this model is specialized for loading and unloading metal scrap and bulk materials, making it ideal for long-term, continuous operation in scrap recycling yards and solid waste treatment facilities.
Product Features
1. The knuckle boom design, combined with a wide slewing range, provides extensive operational coverage—even allowing the grapple to reach below the mounting platform level—for highly flexible space utilization.
2. The compact base design minimizes the equipment's footprint, while the hydraulic system is engineered for continuous, stable, and reliable performance.
Usage Tips
1. Before commissioning, ensure the power unit meets the specifications (recommended power: 45 kW; system flow rate: 80 L/min) to guarantee smooth, coordinated movement.
2. Regularly inspect the grapple pivot pins and hydraulic hose seals. Avoid prolonged contact with sharp scrap metal to extend the equipment's service life.
FAQ
Q1: Can this equipment directly replace a telescopic boom crane for handling materials on ships?
A1: This model is a stationary, land-based knuckle boom crane and does not feature the anti-corrosion specifications required for marine environments. For operations involving lifting or grabbing materials over water, a marine knuckle boom crane or a ship-mounted telescopic boom crane is recommended.
Q2: What are the key aspects of routine maintenance?
A2: Routine maintenance should focus on regularly changing the hydraulic oil, checking the lubrication of the slewing bearing, and inspecting the wear on the grapple’s components. It is also essential to keep the oil in the 250L tank clean and prevent any impurities from entering the hydraulic system.
Q3: Besides scrap steel, what other materials can it handle?
A3: It is suitable for various types of loose metal scrap and industrial bulk materials. It is not designed for handling raw timber; for timber handling, a dedicated forestry crane (log-grabbing machine) should be used.
Q4: How are after-sales warranty and spare parts supply handled?
A4: A standard warranty is provided for the core components of the main unit. High-wear grapple components and seals are kept in stock, and remote operational guidance is also available.
