Buckner Companies - CranesWorking with heavy lift crawler cranes is what our company has been doing for over 65 years. Because heavy loads require detailed engineering when being set in place, we also develop engineered lift and rigging plans and always use the right equipment for the job. To provide some general information for our site visitors, provided is a list of the types of cranes Buckner provides on job sites.

Telescopic Crawler Cranes

These units are truly a versatile machine. With a telescopic hydraulic boom on the upper section and crawler tracks on the lower section, these units are fast becoming a crane of choice on many job sites. With no outriggers to set up and because the crane can pick and carry a load, productively Telescopic Crawlers are becoming a desired unit over Rough Terrain Cranes.

Conventional Crawler

Unlike mobile cranes, crawlers are mounted upon tracks. This gives them the ability to move around a job site, but they cannot travel on public roads. This means they must get transported to and from sites by multiple truck loads. On the job, these crawlers take counter weights which get added or taken away to help stabilize the crawler crane before a lift.

Get the Right Crane for a Challenging Job

This list above barely scratches the service. Our crawler cranes range from 80tons – 1432ton capacity. Our crawler cranes are used in nearly every industry where materials need to be lifted in place. Arenas, stadiums, power plants, refineries, bridges, are a few of the industries you’ll find our crawler cranes working.
