FF040TC-3A
When selecting deck cranes, shipowners often face challenges such as limited deck space and excessive crane weight, which adds unnecessary load to the vessel. Furthermore, it can be difficult to distinguish between the ideal operating conditions for telescopic boom cranes versus knuckle boom cranes. The FF040TC-3A 2-ton flange-mounted telescopic boom marine crane is designed for direct mounting via a flange base, eliminating the need for extensive structural modifications to the vessel. With a unit weight of 850 kg, it offers a maximum lifting capacity of 2,000 kg, a maximum outreach of 8.2 meters, and a maximum lifting height of 8.9 meters. It features 360-degree full rotation and an integrated operator station, ensuring stable handling of fishing gear, spare parts, and deck supplies. While telescopic boom cranes are better suited for extended-reach operations, knuckle boom cranes excel at maneuvering and folding within confined spaces. Our product line also includes grab cranes and forestry cranes (log-handling cranes) to accommodate tasks such as material grabbing and timber loading/unloading.
1. Product Features: Equipped with a three-section telescopic boom, the system operates at a rated hydraulic pressure of 20 MPa with a slewing speed of 0–1.5 rpm. It includes a built-in 40-liter hydraulic oil tank and comes with a comprehensive load chart and technical specification table, allowing for quick, clear identification of safe working loads based on boom angle and operating radius.
2. Usage Tips: Always verify the safe working load against the load chart before every lift—overloading is strictly prohibited. For operations in marine environments exposed to salt spray, inspect hydraulic lines before each use and perform regular anti-corrosion maintenance.
As a lightweight telescopic boom marine crane, this unit features a simple, streamlined design that requires minimal maintenance. Compared to marine knuckle-boom cranes of the same tonnage, this model offers greater stability during long-reach lifting operations, making it an ideal choice for offshore fishing vessels and small workboats.
Q1: Can this telescopic-boom crane be installed directly onto the deck of an existing fishing vessel?
A1: The unit comes with a standard flanged mounting base. As long as the deck’s structural strength meets the requirements, the crane can be secured via this base—minimizing the need for extensive hull cutting and ensuring a quick installation process.
Q2: What are the key points for routine maintenance?
A2: Focus on keeping the hydraulic oil clean and regularly applying grease to the slewing bearing. Given the saline, mist-prone marine environment, periodically inspect the seals and touch up protective coatings to prevent corrosion and oil leaks.
Q3: Can it be fitted with a grab bucket to function as a grab crane?
A3: The unit comes standard with a lifting hook. If you wish to add a grab bucket for handling materials, the load capacity for the specific operating radius must be re-verified; you cannot simply apply the operational parameters used for forestry (timber-handling) cranes.
Q4: How are spare parts and after-sales support handled?
A4: We maintain a stock of common wear parts—such as seals, hydraulic hoses, and valve assemblies—which can be shipped alongside your order. We also provide technical drawings and instructional videos to assist with on-site maintenance and repairs.
