Case Study: Hidrokon HK 165 K7+L5 Knuckle Boom Crane

Model: HK 165 K7+L5; Equipment Type: 16-ton Dual-Knuckle Boom Truck-mounted Crane; Production Year: 2024 Model Turkey Self-installation July 17, 2026

Machine Information

Machine Type: Heavy-duty Truck-mounted Dual-Knuckle Boom Crane

Core Parameters: Max Lifting Capacity 16ton (7ton+5ton Dual Boom), Max Working Radius 12m, 2-section Knuckle Boom, 6x4 Heavy-duty Truck Chassis

Working Condition: Heavy cargo handling, narrow space operation, industrial equipment installation, mountainous area construction

Application Scenarios: Building material lifting & transportation, industrial equipment installation, municipal engineering heavy-duty operation, warehouse heavy cargo handling, bridge accessory installation, forestry heavy-load loading & unloading

Before: Pain Points

1. Large visual blind spots in cab operation, unable to clearly observe the dual knuckle booms and load status in narrow construction sites

2. Ground command personnel are required for full-process cooperation in heavy-load lifting, a single operator cannot complete precise positioning and load handling alone

3. High safety risks exist during heavy-load operation, with potential hazards of load tipping and boom collision caused by misoperation

4. The original wired control has limited operating distance, and the optimal viewing position cannot be flexibly selected to adapt to complex site conditions5. Poor fluency of dual-knuckle boom cooperative operation in narrow spaces, leading to low lifting efficiency and high collision risk

Installation Solution

1. Receiver Installation: The industrial wireless receiver is fixed in the hydraulic valve compartment of the truck chassis, with IP68 waterproof and dustproof protection, adapting to harsh outdoor construction site conditions

2. Wiring Scheme: One-to-one matching with the control signal interface of the original hydraulic multi-way valve, wire-free non-destructive installation, without damaging the original hydraulic system, safety logic and load protection system of the truck

3. Remote Controller Configuration: Customized industrial proportional joystick remote controller, with preset action logic matching the original hydraulic flow curve, adapting to single-hand operation for dual-boom coordination, with emergency stop and anti-misoperation design

4. On-site Debugging: Calibrate joystick stroke and hydraulic action speed, match the original emergency stop safety function and load limit protection, test the stability and anti-interference ability of wireless signal transmission over 100m in complex construction sites, and fully adapt to the original safety protection mechanism of the truck

Result

1. Safety Improvement:

Operators can complete the whole process control in the ground safety area, away from the risks of cab operation and heavy-load misoperation, and completely avoid safety hazards of load tipping and boom collision

2. Efficiency Improvement:

A single operator can complete the full heavy-load lifting workflow independently without ground command cooperation, the overall work efficiency is improved by more than 30% in narrow construction sites

3. Labor Saving:

Reduce 1-2 ground command personnel, greatly reduce labor and management costs for construction projects

4. Customer Feedback:

The remote controller is precise and smooth in operation, stable in signal and anti-interference in complex construction sites, adapts to narrow space operation, the modification scheme does not affect the original vehicle warranty and safety system, and is highly recognized by customers
