Tower Crane

FAQ About New Tower Cranes

Q1: What types of tower cranes are available at Archer Machinery?
We supply a wide range of brand-new tower cranes tailored for various construction needs, including Hammerhead (Top-kit) Cranes for standard sites, Flat-top Cranes for sites with multiple cranes or height restrictions, and Luffing Jib Cranes for confined urban environments and skyscraper projects. Our primary brands include world leaders like ZOOMLION and XCMG.

Q2: How do I choose the right crane based on lifting capacity and jib length?
The selection depends on your project’s maximum load and required radius. We offer cranes ranging from 6-ton to 100-ton+ capacities. Our engineers can help you analyze the load chart to ensure the tip load at maximum jib length meets your specific lifting requirements for precast concrete or steel structures.

Q3: What safety monitoring systems are included with new tower cranes?
Every new tower crane comes factory-equipped with advanced Load Moment Indicators (LMI), anti-collision systems, and zone protection technology. These systems provide real-time data on wind speed, hook height, and load weight, automatically preventing hazardous movements to ensure site safety.

Q4: Are the mast sections and components treated for long-term durability?
Yes. Our cranes feature masts and jibs treated with high-quality anti-corrosion coatings or galvanization. This is essential for maintaining structural integrity during multi-year projects, especially in coastal or humid environments where salt-air corrosion is a concern.

Q5: How can I source replacement motors, wire ropes, and sensors?
To minimize downtime on your job site, all critical spare parts—including hoisting motors, slewing reducers, high-tensile wire ropes, and electrical sensors—are available for fast global shipping through our parts division: www.archerparts.com.
