Case Study 1: Glass Installation Project in France
Client Background
The client is a glass installation contractor in France, mainly working on residential and commercial buildings. Many projects require lifting glass panels in tight urban environments.
Challenges
- Limited Working Space: Construction areas were narrow, making it difficult for large cranes to enter.
- Indoor Lifting Needs: Some lifting tasks had to be completed inside buildings with restricted access.
- Manual Handling Risks: Traditional manual lifting posed safety risks and reduced efficiency.
Solution
We recommended a compact mobile spider crane, featuring:
- Small size for easy access through narrow spaces
- Lightweight design suitable for indoor operation
- Flexible outriggers for stable positioning
- Precise control for delicate lifting tasks
This mini crawler crane could be easily transported and positioned near the work area.
Results
- Better Accessibility: The spider crane successfully operated in tight job sites where larger machines could not.
- Improved Safety: Reduced manual handling lowered risks during installation work.
- Stable Operation: The machine maintained good balance and control throughout the lifting process.
- Higher Efficiency: Work became more organized and slightly faster compared to traditional methods.
Client Feedback
“This mobile spider crane is very practical for our projects. It works well in narrow spaces and improves both safety and efficiency.”

Case Study 2: Equipment Installation Project in Kazakhstan
Client Background
The client is a construction service company in Kazakhstan, focusing on equipment installation and small-scale construction projects in areas with challenging ground conditions.
Challenges
- Uneven Terrain: Some job sites had soft or uneven ground, affecting equipment stability.
- Transport Difficulties: Large cranes were not convenient for remote or smaller projects.
- Slow Setup: The client needed equipment that could be deployed quickly and easily.
Solution
We supplied a spider crawler crane, configured with:
- Crawler chassis for improved mobility and ground adaptability
