ZOOMLION loader cranes are truck-mounted lifting equipment that allows one vehicle to transport goods and handle on-site lifting, loading, and unloading operations. ZOOMLION offers two types of loader cranes: stiff boom cranes and knuckle boom cranes. Both types can lift equipment, construction materials, and other cargo onto or off trucks, as well as lift and position loads for installation. They are suitable for construction, power and utility projects, infrastructure, mining, and industrial equipment installation. Knuckle boom loader cranes have articulated boom sections that fold and unfold to adjust the reach and position of the load, which is useful for frequent loading and unloading operations or installation work in confined spaces.

When selecting a loader crane, it is necessary to consider the load weight and its intended placement position, as these factors determine the required lifting capacity, working radius, and boom length. The truck must also have sufficient space for crane mounting and adequate payload capacity to carry the crane along with the cargo. The truck's dimensions and maneuverability are equally important, as it must be able to access the loading area and provide sufficient working space for crane operations.
