MAXTECH Telescopic-Folding Boom Ship Deck Crane: Unlocking Flexible Experiences for Ship Operations
In ship deck operation scenarios such as cargo transfer, equipment maintenance, and material supply, the limitations of space and diversity of tasks have always been core challenges in equipment selection. Adhering to the core design concept of "compact storage + flexible operation", MAXTECH Telescopic-Folding Boom Ship Deck Crane integrates the dual structural advantages of telescopic and folding booms. With high adaptability, efficient operation capability, and reliable safety performance, it has become an ideal deck lifting equipment for various merchant ships, engineering ships, and special-purpose vessels.
I. Core Design: Combining Telescopic and Folding Booms to Balance Space and Efficiency
Dual-Structure Synergistic Advantage: The folding boom design enables multi-section folding of the lifting arm, which can be stored close to the deck or ship side in non-operation status, occupying only 1/3 of the space of traditional straight-arm cranes. It is particularly suitable for ships with dense deck equipment such as container ships and fishery processing ships. The telescopic boom section can be flexibly extended according to operational needs, with a maximum working radius covering the range from the deck edge to tens of meters outside the ship side, easily completing tasks at different radii such as cargo loading/unloading and equipment hoisting.
Balance Between Lightweight and High Strength: The main body of the boom is made of high-strength alloy steel, and the structural stress is optimized through finite element analysis. While ensuring the rated load of the lifting arm (customizable from 5 tons to 50 tons), it significantly reduces the equipment's own weight, alleviates the pressure on the ship deck's load-bearing capacity, and avoids affecting the ship's stability.
Multi-Attitude Operation Capability: It supports 360° unlimited slewing (some models are designed with limited slewing angles based on ship space). Combined with the multi-dimensional action combination of telescoping and folding, it can realize complex attitude operations such as "low-space hoisting, long-distance transfer, and high-altitude operation", adapting to multi-scenario operation needs including deck, cargo hold, and outboard.


II. Performance Highlights: Adapting to Ship Scenarios and Balancing Efficiency and Reliability
Strong Environmental Adaptability for Complex Sea Conditions
2. The hydraulic system uses marine-grade anti-wear hydraulic oil and seals, which can operate stably within a temperature range of -20℃ to 60℃. Whether in the low-temperature operation of polar research ships or the high-temperature environment of tropical sea areas, it can maintain the smoothness of hydraulic actions.
3. Equipped with an anti-sway control system, it real-time monitors the ship's heel (≤5°) and trim (≤2°) status through sensors, automatically adjusts the speed and angle of the lifting arm, reduces the sway amplitude of goods, and ensures operational safety under sea conditions.
Low-Maintenance Design to Reduce Operating Costs
2. Moving parts such as boom joints and slewing mechanisms are equipped with centralized lubrication points, which can be regularly replenished with lubricating oil through manual or automatic lubrication systems to reduce mechanical wear.
3. The electrical control system adopts a modular design, which can quickly locate faulty modules in case of malfunctions. Combined with the remote diagnosis function, onshore technical teams can assist crew members in quickly troubleshooting, shortening downtime.


III. Diverse Applications: Covering Operational Needs of All Types of Ships
Merchant Ships and Transport Ships: As deck Cargo Cranes, they are used for loading/unloading containers and general cargo between ports and ships, or for material transfer between ships. The folded storage status does not affect the wind-receiving area of the ship during navigation.
Engineering Ships and Special-Purpose Ships: On salvage ships, dredgers, and other engineering ships, they are used for hoisting heavy components such as salvage equipment and conveying pipelines. On research ships, they are adapted for hoisting precision instruments and outboard sample collection operations, and the smoothness of actions ensures equipment safety.
Fishing Vessels and Auxiliary Ships: On ocean-going fishing boats and fishery processing ships, they are used for hoisting fishing catches, fishing nets, and processing equipment. The compact design saves deck space and facilitates the arrangement of fishing catch processing lines. On tugs and pilot boats, they are used for hoisting towing equipment and supply materials, adapting to the operational characteristics of frequent start-stop.
IV. Customized Services: Starting from Actual Ship Needs
Installation Adaptation Customization: Optimize the crane base design according to the deck structure, load-bearing capacity, and space layout, and optional fixed, movable, or foldable installation methods are available.
Standard and Configuration Customization: Strictly comply with mainstream classification society certification standards such as CCS, LR, and ABS. Special configurations such as explosion-proof systems (suitable for hazardous environments such as oil tankers), heating systems (for polar operations), or manned baskets (for high-altitude maintenance) can be added on demand.
