Construction Efficiency Redefined with PALFINGER’s Tiltable Crane Fork
The innovative tiltable crane fork from PALFINGER enables precise material transport to great heights and hard-to-reach areas – ideal for work in tightly built-up areas. For the first time in the European market, a tiltable crane fork is available that can be fully integrated into the crane system’s overload function, setting new standards in efficiency and safety. It can be quickly and easily mounted on all PALFINGER TEC Loader Cranes.
Whether in construction, transport and logistics, or infrastructure projects, many industries face the challenge of making building materials usable at great heights. With its tiltable crane fork, PALFINGER now offers an entirely new, innovative solution for the fast and straightforward transport of both palletized and non-palletized materials directly to their destination, such as upper floors. Thanks to its thoughtful geometry and flexibility, loads can be positioned through almost any opening. Lifting materials through façade openings like doors or windows minimizes effort and saves valuable time. It eliminates the need for disassembly work on railings or cladding and renders the risky manual pulling of materials obsolete. This advantage enables precise and efficient work, even through the smallest window openings. Temporary platforms or balconies with questionable load capacities are no longer required as drop-off points.
Functional and Flexible in Use
The new tiltable crane fork stands out with its significantly lower overall height compared to other models available on the market. Additional flexibility and safety are ensured by the highly precise hydraulic control of the tilt angle and the integrated strap that secures loads quickly and easily, regardless of their size. The crane fork is mounted on the respective fly jib of the TEC loader crane using the multifunction adapter (MFA) and connected hydraulically. It is compatible with all currently available TEC loader crane models equipped with the PALTRONIC 180 control system. The tiltable crane fork is offered in combination with the proven standard pallet fork upper parts PZP-H and PZP-V, ensuring maximum flexibility and application possibilities.
Setting New Standards in Safety
As the first and only solution on the European market, the tillable crane fork meets the requirements of EN12999, the standard for loader cranes. The specially developed MTCF (Monitor Tiltable Crane Fork) software function integrates the crane fork into the overload system of TEC loader cranes. In case of an overload, the remote control provides an active warning and allows only movements that reduce the load moment. These clear warnings simplify operation, prevent accidents, and protect the crane, thus increasing its availability.
Experience it Live
Interested parties can test the new crane fork directly at PALFINGER or see it in action at the bauma 2025 event in April in Munich, Germany.
