What Is a Spider Crane?

A spider crane is a small, compact crane with legs that spread out like a spider. These legs give it excellent stability while keeping the machine small enough to fit in tight spaces.

Key features

  • Compact size for narrow access and indoor work

  • Extendable outriggers (legs) for strong, stable support

  • Tracks that handle uneven or rough ground

  • Strong lifting capacity for its size

  • Option for remote operation for extra safety
