Mobile Crane Market Drivers and Opportunities

Increasing Demand of Portable Mobile Cranes Drives the Market Growth

The fundamental advantage of mobile cranes is their compactness and ease of access at small building sites, particularly in urban settings. Mobile cranes require less site area to operate than tower cranes and accomplish the same activities as fixed cranes. Furthermore, transportable cranes do not need to be assembled at each location, saving time and decreasing labor requirements. Liebherr introduced the MK 73-3.1 mobile construction crane in March 2021, which is the smallest in Liebherr's mobile construction crane family. The new product complements the crane series of the company, which includes the MK 88-4.1 and MK 140. The compact 3-axle crane provided by the companies is the market's response to the desire for a tiny, compact, and agile, mobile construction crane exhibiting quick and versatile operations. Such developments in the functionalities are propelling the mobile crane market growth.

Development of large intralogistics center in South-East Asia

The rising e-commerce sector in Southeast Asia supports the expansion of the market for warehousing and intralogistics in this region. The region encompasses 11 country-level markets at varying levels of growth; hence, it is rapidly becoming an economic centre. The economy of Southeast Asian countries is expanding with the steadily increasing middle-class population. According to statistics obtained from the International Monetary Fund, the aggregate GDP of all ASEAN countries is expected to be US$ 4.37 trillion by 2024.

Reduced Fuel Consumption of Mobile Cranes

Growing trends of high-performance products with fuel efficiency and reduced carbon emission and have encouraged the Companies in the mobile crane market to innovate their product portfolio and strengthen its presence in the fast-growing truck crane category. As a result, Sany Heavy Industry India pt. Ltd. launched its advanced CEV Stage IV emission-compliant cranes that consumes less power and provide stability and safety during operation. The advanced crane’s maximum load-lifting capacity is 25 ton at a working radius of 3mts and a maximum boom length of 33.5m. The STC450C is fuel-efficient and has an adjustable hydraulic system with intelligent electric controls. The increase in the number of infrastructural projects across the globe has increased the demand for cranes with advanced mechanized solutions, high-loading capacities, low fuel consumption, and easy maintenance.

Models of mobile cranes now have driven and control systems with a variety of optional features that assist to minimize fuel consumption and increase productivity and dependability. When the engine is in idle mode, the complete pump drive is disengaged automatically, and when power is necessary, it is turned on in a couple of seconds utilizing intelligent control. The software provides signals to the electronic engine, which adjusts its RPM automatically according on the lifting needs at the job site. For instance, Zoomlion manufactures mobile cranes that has an energy-saving system that operates at multiple power modes and the average fuel consumption has been reduced by 20 %, down to 4.5 liters per hour. Zoomlion has also designed the crane’s cabs and operator information panel to be as ergonomic and safe as possible, thus maximizing potential overseas demand.
