ISUZU 16 Ton GIGA PALFINGER Telescopic Boom Crane
Mounted upon the proven ISUZU VC61 5X sleeper cab chassis configured in a rugged 6×4 drive format, this integrated heavy-duty crane truck is engineered for maximum durability and payload capacity within challenging construction and infrastructure maintenance environments. The chassis core features a double-layer U-profile parallel ladder frame cold riveted for exceptional strength (320 × 90 × 8 mm main section), providing the solid foundation necessary for the demanding PALFINGER SPS40000 stiff boom crane. Power originates from the substantial ISUZU 6UZ1-TCG61 engine, a turbocharged & intercooled 6-cylinder diesel displacing 9.839 liters, achieving 380 horsepower (279 kW) at 1800 rpm and delivering a robust peak torque of 1756 Nm between 1000-1200 rpm, compliant with stringent EURO 6 emission standards. Power transfer is managed by the reliable FAST 12JSD180TA manual transmission, featuring 12 forward and 2 reverse gears with synchronizers for smooth shifting under load, coupled to a substantial Φ430mm pull-type clutch system. Operator comfort and control are prioritized within the all-steel sleeper cab featuring 4-point hydraulic suspension, seating for two, an integrated bed, central locking, electric windows, a multi-functional steering wheel and LCD instrument cluster, and air conditioning, all accessible via a 60° front-tilting mechanism for simplified maintenance. Safety underpins the design with a comprehensive compressed air brake system (dual-circuit service brakes, spring-actuated parking brake, engine exhaust brake) and ABS, supported by a mechanical suspension with 7/10 leaf springs rated for a Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) of 35,000 kg and distributed across axles rated at 9,000 kg (front) and 13,000 kg + 13,000 kg (rear).

Features
The heart of this solution is the PALFINGER SPS40000 stiff boom crane, a sophisticated 16-ton (16,000 kg) capacity telescopic crane designed for precision, stability, and productivity in heavy lifting scenarios.
A. Core Crane Performance & Structure
- High-Strength Boom System: The 5-section telescopic boom, featuring an octagonal profile for superior structural integrity and resistance to deflection, extends to a maximum outreach of 18.6 meters, achieving a maximum lifting height of 21.5 meters; constructed from high-tensile steel and benefiting from digital design optimization, it retracts compactly to 6.23 meters for transit.
- Optimized Stability: A wide outrigger span of 7,250 mm (fully extended) provides exceptional stability on varied terrains, crucial for safely handling the crane’s rated lifting moment of 40 metric tonnes and dynamic crane moment of 93.1 mt (913.8 kNm).
- Proportional Hydraulic Control: Ensures smooth, sensitive, and precise load manipulation across the entire operating range, governed by a hydraulic system operating at 32 Mpa pressure with a recommended oil flow rate of 80-110 L/min supported by a 400L oil tank.
B. Operational Intelligence & Safety Systems
- Integrated Control System: Features include automatic hook retraction for operational efficiency and safety, and a standard load indicator providing real-time feedback to the operator within the cab.
- Enhanced Safety Options: Critical optional safety systems include the Crane Moment Limiter (SYMC) to prevent dangerous overloads, the Over Winding Stop (OWS) for hoist protection, and an Auxiliary Winch (AXW) for specialized lifting tasks; a radio remote control system significantly enhances safety and precision by allowing operation away from the crane itself.
- Operator Ergonomics: The crane can be operated from the robust proportional floor control unit within the cab, optionally augmented by the radio remote control, while an available sun protection canopy improves comfort for operators using external controls.
C. Utility & Support Features
- Integrated Cargo Capacity: A practical 6-meter length cargo box provides substantial space for transporting tools, rigging, and essential equipment directly to the job site.
- Winch & Auxiliary Power: The crane integrates a capable 2-speed main winch with 6 hook lines, optionally complemented by the Auxiliary Winch (AXW) for complex lifts or pulling tasks; a service timer aids in proactive maintenance scheduling based on actual crane usage.
This combination of the rugged ISUZU GIGA 6×4 chassis, the powerful EURO 6 engine, the robust FAST 12-speed transmission, and the technologically advanced PALFINGER SPS40000 crane with its octagonal boom and comprehensive safety/control features creates a premier solution for contractors requiring maximum lifting capacity, reach, stability, and operational intelligence in a single integrated vehicle.
