share in China. In 2019 it saw an annual output of 10 000 units. Offering cost-effective and versatile solutions XCMG are one-stop suppliers of a wide selection of knuckle boom cranes. Features include: • Load moment from 2tm to 425.5tm with lifting capacity ranging from 1 to 92.5 tons; • A pentagon boom section that can make a 5% bigger load moment than other brands at the same boom length, making boom operations very stable; • An auto-lock system that saves time and increases safety; • An over-wind protection system that prevents the hook from overwinding. This system reminds operators to
stop continuing to hook; • More mechanical and hydraulic control for operation and less electrical parts, making it simple to operate and repair along with maximum uptime; • A bigger outrigger that makes the crane stronger and keeps it steady; and • A variety of attachments that make the cranes far more versatile.
