Fixed CabA fixed-cab boom truck has a single cab i.e. the truck’s cab. This is the most common type of boom truck.
While the crane is mounted on the back of the truck, its controls are integrated with those of the truck, allowing the driver to control it from the cab. The immovability of the truck cab limits both the field of vision and the range of motion of the crane. |
Swing CabA swing cab is a fully functioning mobile crane that just happens to be mounted on the back of a truck.
Its controls are not integrated with those of the truck. Instead, the swing cab boom truck is controlled by its own cab attached to the crane which allows for 360° motion. |
Boom Truck CranesA boom truck is a truck carrying a mobile hydraulic crane, called a boom. The crane is often mounted on the chassis of a commercial truck, usually a flatbed trailer, and operated from the cab.
These truck-mounted cranes operate in a similar manner to conventional cranes, lifting objects with hooks. The main benefit of boom cranes is their mobility. Mounted on a truck, they can be transported anywhere. |
