Featuring a reinforced frame, powerful drivetrain, and advanced crane technology, it is an ideal solution for operators requiring reliable heavy equipment for efficient material handling and lifting operations on job sites.

II. Core Specifications

III. Dimensions, Material & Design Concept

• Cargo Box Dimensions: 6000 × 2300 × 550 mm (19.7 × 7.5 × 1.8 feet). This durable flatbed or cargo bed can be configured as a manual telescopic cargo box or hydraulic telescopic cargo box (5.8m or 6.1m options available) for flexible cargo handling and transport.

• Chassis Frame: 300 mm (11.8 inches) Three-Layer Straight-Through High-Strength Steel Channel. The frame features a unique partial three-layer reinforcement specifically designed for crane mounting, providing exceptional load-bearing capacity and preventing frame deformation during heavy lifting operations.

• Design Philosophy: "Strength and Stability Through Engineering." The vehicle is built around a philosophy of robust construction and operational safety. The Dongfeng T702 cab features a four-point suspension system for reduced vibration and enhanced comfort. The chassis incorporates a unique floating three-point bridge structure that effectively reduces additional stress on the frame during travel. The crane utilizes hexagonal boom technology for superior strength and precision.

• Primary Material: High-strength alloy steel throughout critical load-bearing components. The 300 mm truck frame features three-layer reinforcement at crane mounting points, while the crane boom utilizes hexagonal section design with high-tensile steel for maximum strength-to-weight ratio.

IV. Detailed Component Advantages

• Superior Chassis & Cab: The Dongfeng Teshang chassis features the T702 cab with four-point suspension for excellent ride comfort and reduced driver fatigue. The cab design prioritizes ergonomics with intuitive controls and good visibility. The 11.8-inch three-layer reinforced truck frame provides an exceptional foundation for heavy-duty crane mounting, with specialized reinforcement at critical stress points to prevent deformation during maximum load operations.

• Powerful & Efficient Drivetrain: The Yuchai 180 HP diesel engine delivers strong, reliable power with torque characteristics optimized for low-speed climbing and mountain road operation. Compared to equivalent displacement engines, the Yuchai offers superior low-end torque for challenging terrain. Paired with the Fast (Shaanxi Gear) 8-speed transmission with High/Low range, the drivetrain provides precise power control for both highway travel and demanding crane operations. The flange-output power take-off (PTO) is factory-installed for seamless hydraulic system integration.

• Durable Running Gear: The heavy-duty front axle (5.5T capacity) and rear axle (11.5T capacity) are engineered to handle the dynamic stresses of lifting and transport. The 11.5-ton rear axle provides exceptional load support and traction. Safety is ensured by a dual-circuit air brake system with spring brake for fail-safe parking, supplemented by Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) . The vehicle also features a driving recorder, remote throttle control, and lower protection for enhanced operational safety.

• Advanced Crane Technology: The XCMG crane utilizes hexagonal boom technology with excellent centering properties and superior bending resistance. The compact, space-efficient design maximizes cargo space while maintaining structural integrity. Key features include:

  • Single-cylinder telescoping mechanism for smooth operation

  • Integrated overload warning system to prevent wire rope damage

  • 360-degree continuous rotation with self-developed slewing mechanism

  • High-strength steel construction for durability
