Product Overview

Compact Lifting Equipment for Narrow and Sensitive Worksites

Spider cranes are designed for worksites where traditional cranes are difficult to enter, position, or operate. The compact chassis and spider-leg outrigger system allow the machine to work in narrow indoor areas, courtyards, workshops, museums, heritage sites, and complex construction environments.
By combining hook lifting and optional personnel platform functions, Leepa spider cranes can support both material lifting and aerial work, helping buyers improve project efficiency with one versatile machine.
Product Details

Structural Details Built for Reliable Lifting Performance

Replace the following images with real machine detail photos, such as boom system, outrigger structure, wire rope system, control console, crawler chassis, hydraulic fly jib, or work basket.

01 Telescopic Boom

Core Material: Entire structure utilizes BS700D high-strength steel plates from Shanghai Baosteel.
Material Properties: Excellent metal memory, fatigue resistance, high toughness, and compressive strength enable lightweight design.
Safety Assurance: Critical load-bearing areas are specifically reinforced to ensure safety and reliability.
Operational Performance: Strong overall stability supporting multiple high/low-speed working modes.

02 Hydraulic Outriggers (M-Type and X-Type)

The hydraulic outriggers of the spider crane are available in two configurations: M-type and X-type.

Models with a capacity below 5 tons are equipped with M-type outriggers,

while models rated at 5 tons or above feature X-type outriggers.

Manufactured using welded BS700D high-strength steel from Shanghai Baosteel, the outriggers offer modular assembly and height adjustment functions. This design ensures operational stability while effectively reducing the on-site footprint. When integrated with the intelligent hydraulic leveling and stability system, the outriggers further enhance the equipment’s adaptability to various working conditions and improve on-site support stability.

03 Control Panel

Fully hydraulic instrument display with high sensitivity. Laser-cut control lever markings ensure clear identification, rational layout, and user-friendly operation.

The advanced hydraulic and electronic control systems enable high-precision tipping positioning, guaranteeing accuracy and safety during lifting operations. The control panel features a simple and intuitive design, complemented by a remote controller for enhanced operational convenience.

04 Travel Structure (Engineering Rubber Tracks and Steel Tracks)

Equipped with fully enclosed hydraulic motors and imported core components, delivering robust power with low failure rates. Excellent sealing ensures durable and stable performance even under harsh working conditions.

The crawler chassis design provides outstanding stability and trafficability while causing no ground damage.

The track system is specifically optimized for different models:

8-ton and below models: Standard engineering rubber tracks for easy mobility and full ground protection.

10-ton and above models: Engineering steel tracks (300mm width for 10-ton, 400mm width for 12-ton and above) made of high-strength manganese steel, offering exceptional impact resistance, wear performance, and extended service life.

05 Wireless Remote Controller (Optional)

Control Modes: Offers three remote control terminal options – standard remote controller, high-end remote controller, and proportional valve remote controller, enabling wireless operation at distances of up to 200 meters.

Core Functions: Integrated control of lifting operations and equipment travel, supporting stepless speed adjustment. Outrigger actions are also incorporated into the remote control scope.

Configuration Requirements: The high-end remote controller and proportional valve remote controller require the optional installation of a moment limiter system to activate their full functionality (otherwise, the corresponding data interface will not be displayed on the screen).

06 Fly Jib (Optional)

The fly jib supports load-handling telescopic functions. After installation, it enables safe and efficient operations in specialized scenarios such as window work and glass curtain wall lifting. Its exceptional flexibility allows the equipment to precisely avoid obstacles, significantly enhancing operational safety in complex spaces. To meet diverse needs, the fly jib is available in common sizes of 2m, 3m, 4m, and 5m, with custom sizes also supported.

07 Jib (Optional)

The core function of the jib is to effectively increase the lifting height. Its robust structure is specifically designed to extend the vertical working range. We offer standard specifications of 2m, 3m, 4m, and 5m, with customization available to meet your specific requirements.

08 Personnel Lifting Basket (Optional)

Enables elevated work with personnel. Dimensions can be customized according to your specific requirements.

09 Moment System + Overload Alarm (Optional)

The Moment System with Overload Alarm serves as an intelligent safety guardian that integrates sensing, judgment, early warning, and intervention – forming the cornerstone of secure lifting operations.

It clearly and accurately displays the spider crane’s real-time status parameters, including boom length, boom angle, height, working radius, actual load weight, allowable load capacity, and chassis level status. When the optional outrigger ground clearance sensors are installed, the display also shows the status of each individual outrigger.

Overload Alarm (Red Warning): When the load reaches or exceeds 100% of the rated capacity, the system triggers more intense audible and visual alarms, clearly alerting the operator to the dangerous overload condition.

10 Outrigger Ground Clearance Detection (Optional)

This function primarily serves as a safety limiter, effectively preventing tipping hazards caused by outrigger lift-off.

The status of each individual outrigger is displayed on the moment limiter’s screen.

11 Unloading Valve (Optional)

This function immediately stops all hazardous operations when the moment system triggers any alarm. Typically integrated with the moment system, outrigger ground clearance detection, and unloading valve, it automatically forms an anti-tipping system.

12 Glass Vacuum Lifter

The core function of the glass vacuum lifter is to provide a safe, efficient, and non-damaging solution for handling and transporting smooth-surface objects such as glass and panels. It can be connected to cranes, spider cranes, forklifts, and other equipment, and is often equipped with a remote controller, enabling precise long-distance operation by a single operator and significantly improving handling and installation flexibility.

 

Glass vacuum lifters are available in different models with capacities of 400kg, 600kg, 800kg, 1000kg, etc. Each white suction cup represents a capacity of 100kg. The lifter also features tilt and rotation functions.

FAQ

Common Questions About Scissor Lifts

How do I choose the right spider crane model?
The right spider crane model depends on your required lifting capacity, working radius, lifting height, access width, ground condition, and application environment. You can share your project details with Leepa, and our team will help recommend a suitable model and configuration for your lifting project.
Spider cranes are suitable for confined and complex lifting environments, such as indoor equipment installation, glass curtain wall installation, factory maintenance, railway or subway projects, building renovation, power station maintenance, and areas where larger cranes cannot enter or operate efficiently.
Yes. Spider cranes are designed with a compact body and flexible outriggers, making them suitable for narrow access areas. With rubber tracks or protective pads, they can help reduce ground pressure and protect sensitive surfaces such as marble floors, tiles, wooden floors, lawns, or finished indoor spaces.
Leepa can provide diesel, electric, or diesel-electric power options depending on the model and application. Electric power is suitable for indoor or low-noise environments, while diesel power is more suitable for outdoor worksites where stronger power and longer operating time are required.
Yes. Customization can be provided for lifting capacity configuration, boom structure, power system, control method, color, working basket, remote control, safety devices, and other options. We can also provide recommendations based on your local market requirements and project conditions.
Please provide the required lifting weight, working radius, lifting height, jobsite access width, ground condition, indoor or outdoor use, power preference, quantity, and destination port.
