With the Single Link Plus range, PALFINGER is responding to the increasing requirement for truck-mounted cranes for easy, profitable use. This crane concept combines decades of experience and the implementation of a huge number of customer requests. Single Link Plus cranes with their 15 degree reverse linkage knuckle boom are economical models for straightforward use of truck-mounted cranes across all industry sectors.

The new Single Link Plus High Performance cranes in the 24 to 27 meter tonne class stand out by virtue of their perfect ratio of dead weight to lifting power. Their knuckle boom's huge radius of movement also allows work to be carried out in cramped conditions or over and beyond obstacles. Load handling in halls or lifting operations between ceiling girders or through door openings are no problem.

Reliability and operator comfort make the PK 24001 an ideal partner on the construction site. The Single Link Plus system gives it more lifting power and maneuverability and this results in a versatile range of uses.

The PK 24001-K is a true lightweight - resulting in a higher payload and lower operating costs. Its short boom system proves to be an enormous advantage when handling pallets, in the building materials business or when using the clamshell. The crane can be folded down quickly and easily within the tipper truck due to its short parking length.

Thanks to E-HPLS, the PK 27001-EH proves to be a true all-rounder with power reserves. Its versatility, performance and quality advantages conceal enormous potential cost savings for today's successful operator.

PK 24001 and PK 27001-EH: Equipped with up to 8 hydraulic extensions, both cranes have a hydraulic outreach of 21.3 meters. The PK 24001 has a lifting moment of 23.9 meter tonnes and the PK 27001-EH over 26.5 meter tonnes. The PK 24001-K is equipped with up to 4 hydraulic extensions, has a hydraulic outreach of 12.5 meters and a lifting moment of 24.1 meter tonnes.

At the same time, the large maximum supporting width of up to 7.4 m ensures the required stability.

PALFINGER High Performance cranes are particularly appealing visually due to the use of new materials and detail solutions. Functional design elements increase safety and value retention. Hidden behind the maintenance-free extension boom system, standard return oil utilization and weight-optimized lightweight construction are potentially high savings.
