CLW Group, a specialized commercial and special-purpose vehicle manufacturer based in China, has completed another customized heavy-duty truck-mounted crane for an overseas customer order.
The completed vehicle is a FOTON 8×4 cargo truck equipped with an XCMG SQZ760 knuckle boom crane, combining on-site lifting and cargo transportation functions in one integrated vehicle.
Powered by a 380 HP engine, this heavy-duty truck features a large drop-side cargo body, hydraulic stabilizers, a load moment limiter and a customized crane hydraulic system.
The vehicle has completed production and is being prepared for export shipment to Africa.
This project demonstrates CLW Group's capability to integrate heavy-duty truck chassis, specialized lifting equipment and customized cargo bodies according to international customers' requirements.
The following specifications refer to the completed customer order and the supplied crane configuration.

Important technical note: The maximum rated lifting capacity and maximum hydraulic outreach are separate specifications achieved under different operating conditions. The crane cannot lift its maximum rated load at every boom extension or working radius.
The actual permissible lifting load must be determined from the approved load chart and complete vehicle configuration.
One of the main features of this customized truck is its XCMG SQZ760 series folding boom crane.
Unlike conventional straight telescopic boom cranes, a knuckle boom crane uses articulated boom sections that fold into a compact transport position.
This configuration can be useful for construction contractors, machinery handling companies and businesses requiring a combination of lifting and transportation capabilities.
According to the specified crane configuration, the XCMG SQZ760 offers a maximum lifting moment of 674 kN·m, a maximum rated lifting capacity of 38,000 kg and a maximum hydraulic outreach of 20.55 meters.
The crane also features 360-degree continuous slewing capability, allowing the operator to position the boom around the crane's rotating structure within the approved operating envelope.
Its actual lifting capabilities depend on working radius, boom configuration, stabilizer setup and other load-chart conditions.
The completed vehicle is built on a FOTON 8×4 heavy-duty truck chassis with a 380 HP engine.
This chassis configuration provides a platform for mounting the large articulated crane, hydraulic support equipment and cargo body.
When selecting a truck-mounted crane, the chassis must be evaluated according to the weight of the crane installation, the vehicle's approved gross weight, axle load distribution and intended road conditions.
The completed vehicle's engine rating and 8×4 configuration were selected for this particular customer project.
Detailed information such as wheelbase, vehicle dimensions, emission standard, axle ratings and legal cargo payload should be confirmed from the final chassis documentation.
In addition to lifting equipment, the truck features a heavy-duty steel cargo body with drop-side panels.
The cargo platform provides space for transporting suitable construction materials, machinery components and other equipment within the vehicle's approved payload and dimensional limits.
The side panels can facilitate loading and unloading access when used according to the body design.
Combining a truck-mounted crane with a cargo platform can reduce the need for separate lifting equipment during suitable material handling operations.
However, the crane's rated lifting capacity must not be confused with the truck's permissible road cargo payload.
The completed truck includes hydraulic outrigger equipment designed to support the vehicle during crane operations.
The supplied crane configuration specifies stabilizer spread dimensions of 8,206 / 8,000 mm.
Outriggers are important because they transfer forces to the supporting surface and help establish the operating conditions required by the crane's approved load chart.
The correct support configuration depends on ground bearing capacity, deployment space, crane orientation and lifting requirements.
Outrigger pads or other suitable load-distribution measures may be required depending on site conditions.
The crane configuration includes a load moment limiter, intended to assist the operator in monitoring lifting conditions and reducing the risk of exceeding specified operating limits.
The load moment limiter is one part of the lifting safety system and does not replace proper setup, load assessment, inspection or qualified operation.
The completed crane truck is also specified with an enlarged hydraulic oil tank and customized hydraulic components.
The final hydraulic oil capacity, system pressure and flow specifications should be confirmed from the crane and vehicle technical documents.
The customized FOTON 8×4 truck-mounted crane can be considered for a range of lifting and transport activities.
Construction Projects
Handling suitable construction materials, machinery components and equipment at construction sites.
Infrastructure Development
Supporting material lifting and delivery operations for infrastructure construction and maintenance projects.
Industrial Equipment Handling
Loading, unloading and positioning suitable equipment within the crane's rated operating capabilities.
Heavy Equipment Transportation
Transporting compatible cargo within the vehicle's approved road payload and size limits.
Commercial Lifting and Logistics Services
Providing a combined lifting and delivery vehicle for projects that require flexible equipment handling.
Actual suitability depends on the load chart, site conditions, cargo dimensions and approved vehicle specifications.
CLW Group provides customized truck-mounted crane solutions based on customers' lifting and transportation requirements.
Available customization discussions include:
Truck chassis brands and axle configurations
Engine power and applicable emission requirements
Cargo body length, width and side-panel structure
Straight telescopic or knuckle boom cranes
Crane brands and lifting capacity ranges
Hydraulic system and stabilizer arrangements
Load moment limiters and compatible safety systems
Vehicle colors and OEM logo branding
For international projects, the selected configuration should also account for destination-country road regulations, local working conditions and required lifting performance.
This FOTON 8×4 cargo truck with XCMG SQZ760 knuckle boom crane has completed production and is being prepared for shipment to Africa.
The factory photographs show the completed truck, folded crane, cargo platform, hydraulic equipment, outrigger assemblies and crane boom details.
The project is another example of CLW Group's customer-specific commercial vehicle manufacturing and export operations.
