To prevent damage to sensitive floors like marble, the 3-ton spider crane is equipped with optional rubber tracks, effectively reducing ground pressure and ensuring worry-free construction on high-value sites.
Powerful Power, Precise Operation
Equipped with a hydraulic motor, it achieves a maximum travel speed of 2.5 km/h and a 36% gradeability.
Flexible and versatile operation options, including manual and remote control, enhance safety and ease of use.
Common Applications of the 3-ton Spider Crane
- Historical Building Restoration: Lifting heavy objects such as spires and sculptures without dismantling the structure, minimizing damage to historic buildings.
- Industrial Plant Maintenance: Replacing heavy machinery in equipment-intensive workshops allows for flexible movement and minimizes production downtime.
- Indoor High-Aerial Work: Suitable for high-altitude, delicate work such as glass curtain wall installation and air conditioning unit lifting.
- Large Exhibition Setup: Quickly erect booths and arrange heavy exhibits, improving efficiency.
Case Study: 3 Ton Spider Crane in Canada
In 2025, a Canadian construction company from Toronto purchased a 3 ton spider crane from YG Machinery for use in high-rise building maintenance projects. The project site had extremely limited space, making it impossible for traditional truck cranes to enter. The spider crane’s compact design and strong lifting capacity allowed the team to safely lift glass panels and HVAC units to upper floors. The customer reported that the equipment reduced installation time by 25% and significantly lowered labor costs. They also praised YG for providing timely technical guidance and spare parts support during the operation.
