Versatility: The Industrial Value of Telescopic Boom Forklifts

Telescopic boom forklifts are high-end engineering machines that combine the efficient material handling of a forklift with the vertical lifting capabilities of a crane. Not only can they lift vertically, but they can also navigate around construction obstacles to precisely extend and push materials or stack them at height.
This handling capability resolves construction bottlenecks caused by traditional equipment, significantly enhancing on-site operational flexibility and space utilization.

Technical Details of the LUGONG LGTH Series Telescopic Boom Forklifts

Reach Capability: With a horizontal reach of several meters, LUGONG telescopic boom forklifts can easily deliver materials with precision to high-rise buildings, simplifying complex procedures for high-altitude operations.
All-Terrain Capability: Equipped as standard with four-wheel drive and four-wheel steering, these machines maintain stable performance and precise control whether on muddy construction sites, gravel quarries, or in narrow industrial warehouses.
Multi-Functional: Thanks to a highly reliable hydraulic quick-change system, attachments such as forks, buckets, hooks, or aerial work platforms can be swapped in just a few minutes. This allows a single LUGONG telescopic boom forklift to effortlessly perform the tasks of a forklift, loader, and small crane.

LUGONG telescopic boom forklifts cover a wide range of scenarios to meet varying load and height requirements:

 

Model Rated Load Capacity Max. Lifting Height Typical Applications
LGTH735 3,500 kg 7.0 m Low-rise urban buildings, indoor/outdoor logistics, small- to medium-sized warehousing.
LGTH1440 4,000 kg 13.5 m Multi-story residential construction, municipal projects, industrial material handling.
LGTH1840 4,000 kg 17.6 m High-rise construction, mining site loading, heavy-duty infrastructure work.

Summary

The LUGONG LGTH series of telescopic boom forklifts covers a wide range of operating heights from 7 meters to 17.6 meters. Not only can they handle diverse terrains such as construction sites and industrial warehouses, but they also specifically address the challenges of high-altitude material handling and heavy-load transportation.
