QMC

 <_print this page_>

QMC has two primary product lines, boom trucks and truck cranes. The boom trucks are cranes mounted on the rear of commercial truck chassis and ahead of the fifth wheel on 3, 4 and 5 axle tractor. Their primary use is to transport and unload large and heavy products. The truck-mounted cranes are centered over the rear tandem axles of a commercial truck chassis. With longer boom lengths and enclosed operator cabs these cranes offer a viable alternative to carrier mounted truck cranes. QMC's reputation is based on the individual attention given to each unit produced. Each crane is tailored as much as possible to each customer's application.

A Few Words on QMC's Truck Mounted Cranes and Booms

  • Capacity: In most cases, particularly when lifting over the side, QMC machines out pick the competition by dramatic margins. This is particularly true at extended radius of 25' to 70'.
  • Quality: QMC cranes are made of 100,000 PSI steel, which gives them an unequalled strength-to-weight ratio. Components are hand fitted to exact tolerances. In terms of both material and workmanship, no other North American manufacturer builds a better product.
  • Road Speed: Because QMC mounts truck cranes on standard truck chassis, the carrier can be equipped with higher performance engines, transmissions, and suspensions. The result is better road speeds and high-speed gradability when compared to competitive truck cranes.
  • Operator Comfort: A crane operator would rather spend forty hours a week driving a Kenworth or Ford or Peterbuilt or other conventional truck instead of being pounded by a crane carrier all day.
  • Replacement ability: The carrier of a truck crane usually wears out long before the crane itself. When the chassis wears out with QMC machines, it can be easily rechassised. The crane can be removed from the old chassis and remounted on a new chassis in a relatively short period of time.

QMC cranes are constantly updated in terms of design and components. In addition, special application cranes can be designed and manufactured to meet the specific needs of end users
