Frequently Asked Questions
What are crawler cranes typically used for?
Crawler cranes are commonly used for large-scale heavy lifting projects that require high lifting capacities and strong stability on challenging ground conditions. At RMS Cranes, we supply crawler cranes for projects including wind turbine installations, bridge construction, industrial facilities, gas processing plants, commercial developments, and major infrastructure work.
Since crawler cranes distribute weight across wide tracks rather than outriggers, they are especially effective on soft or uneven terrain where other crane types may face limitations. This makes them well suited for energy and industrial projects throughout the Rocky Mountain region.
What lifting capacities are available with your crawler cranes?
Our crawler crane fleet includes machines ranging from 100 tons to 825 tons in lifting capacity. This range allows us to support both mid-sized construction projects and large heavy-lift operations.
Different boom, jib, and counterweight configurations can also be used depending on the lift requirements, reach needed, and site restrictions. Selecting the proper configuration helps improve both lifting efficiency and overall job site safety.
What makes crawler cranes different from other crane types?
Crawler cranes use tracked undercarriages that provide exceptional stability and weight distribution. Unlike many mobile cranes, crawler cranes can often travel around a job site while carrying suspended loads, reducing the need for repeated setup and repositioning.
This capability can improve productivity on large projects where the crane must frequently relocate between lifting points. Crawler cranes are also commonly selected for long-duration projects where the crane remains on site for extended periods because of their strong lifting performance and reliability.
Can crawler cranes operate on soft or uneven ground?
Yes. One of the major advantages of crawler cranes is their ability to operate on soft, unstable, or uneven ground conditions. The crawler tracks spread the crane’s weight over a larger surface area, reducing ground pressure and improving stability.
This is especially important on remote industrial developments, renewable energy sites, mining operations, and infrastructure projects throughout Colorado, Wyoming, and New Mexico where terrain conditions can vary significantly.
How do you support crawler crane projects?
At RMS Cranes, we support crawler crane projects with equipment selection assistance, transportation logistics, lift planning, rigging coordination, and experienced field personnel. We also maintain and certify our crawler crane fleet to help ensure dependable performance on demanding job sites.
For projects involving complex lifts or oversized equipment, we can coordinate additional services including heavy-haul transportation and engineered lift planning to support efficient project execution from start to finish.
