JMC 2T Truck-Mounted Crane with Double Cab | JMC 2T Truck-Mounted Crane with XCMG 2T Crane

I. Product Overview

The JMC XCMG 2T Truck-Mounted Crane with Double Cab represents a powerful collaboration between JMC (Jiangling Motors Corporation) and XCMG, two industry leaders. This 5-seater crane truck is specifically designed for work crews requiring both personnel transport and lifting capability in a single Blue Label vehicle. Powered by a Japanese-Chinese joint venture Isuzu engine and featuring XCMG's precision-engineered 2-ton crane, this compact urban crane excels in municipal maintenance, street light repair, and construction crew operations where space is limited but teamwork is essential.

II. Core Specifications

III. Dimensions, Material & Design Concept

• Design Concept: "Strength Through Partnership – Compact Design with Crew Capacity." This vehicle embodies the combined expertise of JMC's reliable chassis engineering and XCMG's crane technology, creating a 5-person crew vehicle that doesn't sacrifice lifting performance for passenger space.

• Cargo Box Length: 2.77 m (9.09 ft) – Optimized length to accommodate both the double cab and the crane while maintaining Blue Label compliance.

• Cargo Box Material: High-strength carbon steel construction for durability in demanding work environments.

• Cargo Box Volume: Approx. 1.8-2.0 m³ = 475-528 US Gallons (estimated based on standard width and height).

• Aerodynamic Design: The JMC chassis features smooth, flowing lines that reduce wind resistance during highway travel, contributing to fuel efficiency and lower operating costs.

• Cab Design: The double cab configuration comfortably seats 5 workers, eliminating the need for a separate crew vehicle on job sites. The cab design prioritizes visibility and maneuverability for safe urban driving.

IV. Crane Specifications

This model is equipped with the XCMG 2-ton crane, with multiple configuration options.

Crane Configuration Options:

2T 3-Section Boom Detailed Lifting Capacity (Horizontal Plane):

• Fully extended boom length: 7.73 m (25.4 ft)

• Lifting capacity at 7.73 m radius: 255 kg (562 lbs)

• Lifting capacity at 5.4 m radius: 400 kg (882 lbs)

• Lifting capacity at 3.07 m radius: 1,000 kg (2,205 lbs)

• Lifting capacity at 2.0 m radius: 2,100 kg (4,630 lbs)

3.2T 2-Section Boom Detailed Lifting Capacity (Horizontal Plane):

• Working radius: 5.5 m (18.0 ft)

• Lifting height: 6.8 m (22.3 ft)

• Lifting capacity at 5.35 m radius: 950 kg (2,094 lbs)

• Lifting capacity at 3.25 m radius: 1,850 kg (4,079 lbs)

• Lifting capacity at 2.1 m radius: 3,200 kg (7,055 lbs)

Important Note: Actual lifting capacity varies depending on lifting, boom angle, and boom length. A larger boom angle results in greater lifting capacity. Different crane brands and boom configurations will affect working radius, lifting height, and capacity.

V. Structural Details & Advantages

1. Powertrain System

• Isuzu Engine Excellence: The 116 HP Isuzu diesel engine represents advanced Japanese-Chinese joint venture technology, delivering:

  • Low noise operation – ideal for residential urban work

  • Superior fuel economy – reduced operating costs

  • Low failure rate – minimal downtime and repair expenses

  • Proven reliability – trusted by operators worldwide

• Transmission: The 5-speed manual transmission is perfectly matched to the engine's power band, providing smooth acceleration and optimal fuel efficiency.

• Power Adequacy: The 116 HP output is fully sufficient for both lifting operations and cargo transport in this vehicle class, as confirmed by experienced truck operators。

2. Chassis System

• JMC Dedicated Chassis: Purpose-built for crane mounting with optimized weight distribution.

• Rear Axle: The 3-ton rear axle is appropriately sized for the vehicle's GVWR and crane capacity.

• Braking System Considerations: The hydraulic brake system with ABS provides adequate stopping power for this vehicle class. While air brakes are typically found on larger medium-duty trucks, the hydraulic system on this JMC chassis is specifically engineered for Blue Label applications and delivers reliable performance for urban operations.

• Superior Urban Maneuverability: The compact chassis design, excellent visibility, and optimized wheelbase (132.3 inches) make this vehicle exceptionally easy to navigate through narrow city streets, residential areas, and congested work sites.

3. Crane System

• Innovative Outrigger Design: Due to the vehicle's low ground clearance, the front outriggers feature a patented 180-degree rotating design that allows them to be positioned upward when not in use. This prevents damage when traversing speed bumps or uneven terrain.

• Hexagonal Boom Technology: The XCMG crane features a hexagonal cross-section boom constructed from high-strength manganese steel, offering superior structural integrity.

• Leak-Proof Hydraulics: Equipped with high-quality seals and precision-engineered components for reliable, maintenance-free operation.

VI. Product Features & Manufacturer Advantages

• 5-Person Crew Capacity: The double cab configuration sets this vehicle apart, allowing a full work crew of 5 people to travel together – eliminating the need for a separate transport vehicle and improving job site efficiency.

• Blue Label Urban Access: With C-class license eligibility, this vehicle can operate freely in city centers where larger trucks are restricted – perfect for municipal maintenance crews, street light repair teams, and urban construction projects.

• Isuzu Long-Term Value: The Isuzu engine's reputation for reliability and low maintenance costs provides significant long-term savings on repairs and fuel, making this an economical choice over the vehicle's lifetime.

• Industry-Leading Partnership: The combination of JMC's reliable chassis and XCMG's premium crane represents a "best of both worlds" solution trusted by experienced truck operators.

• Precision Engineering: Every detail, from the aerodynamic chassis design to the innovative rotating outriggers, reflects meticulous attention to quality and practical usability.

• Flexible Crane Options: Available with 2-ton or 3.2-ton cranes, 2-section or 3-section booms, and straight or folding boom configurations to suit specific operational requirements.

• Weight-Conscious Design: In an era of strict Blue Label weight regulations, the XCMG 2-ton crane represents the optimal balance between lifting capacity and legal compliance.

• Manufacturer Advantage (Chengli Group): As a specialized manufacturer, Chengli Group offers integrated vehicle design and manufacturing, ensuring perfect coordination between the JMC chassis and XCMG crane. Customers benefit from single-source quality control, comprehensive after-sales support, and access to genuine parts for both the truck body and the hydraulic crane system.
