ISUZU 12 Ton Flatbed Truck Mounted Crane

ISUZU 12 Ton Flatbed Truck Mounted Crane

The ISUZU GIGA 12 Ton Flatbed Truck Mounted Crane is a heavy-duty material handling and transportation vehicle designed to combine the functions of a flatbed cargo truck and a powerful hydraulic crane in one practical platform, allowing operators to transport machinery, construction materials, steel structures, equipment, and other heavy goods while loading and unloading them directly at the job site. Built on an ISUZU GIGA 4×2 left-hand-drive chassis with an 18,000 kg GVW, 5,550 mm wheelbase, and a substantial 6,500–7,000 kg rated payload, the truck provides a stable foundation for demanding lifting and transportation work.

The vehicle is powered by the ISUZU 6HK1-TCG61, a 7.79-liter six-cylinder turbocharged and intercooled diesel engine producing 240 HP and approximately 900 N·m of maximum torque, while the FAST 8-speed manual transmission with 8 forward gears and 1 reverse gear provides a wide range of ratios for both loaded transportation and job-site maneuvering. This powertrain is particularly suitable for a crane truck that may frequently operate with a substantial cargo load and requires steady engine performance while traveling between construction sites, industrial facilities, warehouses, infrastructure projects, and logistics yards.

At the rear of the chassis, the truck is equipped with an approximately 6,500 mm long and 2,450 mm wide flatbed cargo platform manufactured from high-strength carbon steel, with a 600 mm side-wall height and approximately 5 mm floor thickness. The platform provides a practical loading surface for machinery and construction materials, while the integrated XCMG SQS300 hydraulic knuckle boom crane is positioned to perform loading and unloading operations without requiring a separate mobile lifting machine at every location.

The 12-ton XCMG crane has a maximum lifting capacity of 12,000 kg at a 2.5 m working radius, a 30 T·m maximum lifting moment, approximately 16.5 m maximum working radius, and approximately 18 m maximum lifting height. Its 4–5-section boom and continuous 360-degree hydraulic rotation give the operator a broad working envelope, while hydraulic front and rear outriggers provide additional stability during lifting operations. The combination of lifting and transportation functions makes this vehicle suitable for construction contractors, equipment rental companies, infrastructure projects, industrial maintenance, and heavy cargo logistics.

Features

12-Ton XCMG Hydraulic Crane

The core working equipment is the XCMG SQS300 hydraulic knuckle boom crane, which provides a maximum lifting capacity of 12,000 kg at a 2.5 m radius and a maximum lifting moment of 30 T·m. With approximately 16.5 m of maximum working radius and 18 m of maximum lifting height, the crane can handle a wide range of construction materials, machinery components, prefabricated structures, generators, pipes, steel products, and other heavy goods that need to be moved directly from the truck to the working area.

Long-Reach Folding Boom

The crane uses a 4–5-section hydraulic boom with a retracted length of approximately 5,485 mm, allowing the lifting system to remain compact during road transportation while providing considerably greater reach when deployed at the worksite. The continuous 360-degree hydraulic rotation further improves operational flexibility, allowing loads to be positioned around the truck without repeatedly repositioning the entire vehicle.

Hydraulic Outriggers for Working Stability

Hydraulic front and rear outriggers are installed to improve vehicle stability during crane operation, with a maximum outrigger width of approximately 5,900 mm when fully extended. The outriggers create a wider support footprint during lifting operations and help the operator establish a more stable working platform before handling heavy loads, particularly when the crane is working toward the side of the truck or at greater outreach.

Heavy-Duty GIGA Chassis and Powertrain

The ISUZU GIGA chassis gives the truck a robust foundation for combined lifting and transportation duties, while the 6HK1-TCG61 six-cylinder diesel engine delivers 240 HP and approximately 900 N·m of torque. The FAST 8-speed manual transmission allows the driver to select appropriate gearing according to road conditions, vehicle load, and gradient, while the 300-liter fuel tank provides a practical operating range for regular transportation between different job locations.

Large Flatbed Cargo Platform

The approximately 6,500 × 2,450 mm flatbed provides generous usable space for transporting construction equipment, machinery, building materials, steel components, pipes, pallets, and other oversized cargo. Its high-strength carbon-steel construction and approximately 5 mm floor thickness are designed for demanding commercial use, while the 600 mm side walls provide additional support for suitable loads during transportation.

Integrated Hydraulic System

The crane is powered through a hydraulic PTO system, with the hydraulic system designed around approximately 26 MPa working pressure, approximately 80 L/min oil flow, and a 200-liter hydraulic oil tank. This arrangement allows the truck engine to provide the mechanical power required by the crane system while the hydraulic circuit converts that power into controlled boom, rotation, and lifting movements, giving the operator smooth control over loading and unloading operations.

Safety and Operational Control

Safety equipment includes a load-holding valve, emergency stop system, and hydraulic safety lock, while the crane can be operated through hydraulic manual controls with remote control available as an option. These systems are intended to provide controlled operation during lifting, positioning, and lowering, while the hydraulic outriggers help establish a stable working position before heavy loads are handled.

Versatile Construction and Logistics Applications

The truck is designed for applications where cargo transportation and lifting capability are required together, including construction projects, infrastructure installation, industrial equipment handling, machinery transportation, warehouse loading, utility work, and general heavy-material logistics. For fleets that require different specialized lifting solutions, an hydraulic crane truck can handle general material lifting, while a dump truck can be used for bulk construction materials and an cargo truck can provide additional enclosed or open-body transportation capacity.
