TM-ZX1500: 15-Ton Truck Mounted Crane Solution

29 October 2025

The Need for Flexible and Mobile Lifting Equipment

In the dynamic world of modern industries, which demand speed and efficiency, mobility is the key to operational success. Various sectors, including construction, logistics, and mining, as well as agribusiness, require lifting solutions that are not only powerful but also flexible and reliable across different terrains. Answering this challenge, United Tractors presents the Tadano TM-ZX1500 Series, a truck loader crane designed to deliver maximum performance with unparalleled mobility.

Every project has its own unique challenges. Limited space, tight schedules, and the need to move heavy materials from one point to another quickly are just a few of them. In the past, this work might have required several different types of heavy equipment, which was certainly inefficient in terms of both cost and time. Now, the need for a single solution capable of combining lifting and transporting functions has become increasingly crucial. This is the solution offered by the truck-mounted crane, an innovation that is changing how industries view productivity in the field.

What Is a Truck-Mounted Crane?

A truck-mounted crane, also known as a truck loader crane, is a crane device mounted on a commercial truck chassis. This combination creates a versatile, heavy-duty machine that excels in both mobility and durability. Unlike static cranes, it can easily move from one project site to another, even traveling long distances via highways.

Its primary function is to load and unload heavy materials directly onto and from the truck itself, as well as perform lifting jobs within its reach. Its applications are extensive, including:

  • Construction Sector: Lifting building materials such as steel, precast concrete, and pipes.
  • Logistics Sector: Moving heavy cargo, containers, or industrial machinery.
  • Energy Sector: Installation and maintenance of utility poles or telecommunication tower components.
  • Forestry & Plantation Sector: Lifting logs or large-scale agricultural harvests.
  • Oil & Gas Sector: Maintenance facility, material & transport handling, onshore facility piping support

Superior Specifications of the Tadano TM-ZX1500 Series

The Tadano TM-ZX1500 Series is not just an ordinary truck loader crane. It is engineered with high precision by Tadano, a leading global crane manufacturer from Japan, to provide the best strength, reach, and safety in its class.

  • Superior Lifting Capacity: This crane features a maximum lifting capacity of up to 15 tons at a working radius of 2.0 meters. This capability makes it ideal for handling various types of heavy materials with ease.
  • Maximum Reach: Equipped with a 5-section telescopic boom, the TM-ZX1500 can reach a height of up to 5 meters. This extensive vertical and horizontal reach provides outstanding flexibility, allowing access to even the most challenging work areas.
  • Robust Boom Structure: Utilizing a proven hexagonal box boom design, the crane’s boom structure offers greater strength and stability, minimizing deflection or vibration when lifting loads at maximum reach.

Technological Excellence for Safety and Efficiency

Operator safety and efficiency are top priorities. The Tadano TM-ZX1500 is equipped with a series of advanced technologies to ensure every job runs smoothly and safely.

  1. Automatic Moment Limiter (AML): This is the brain of the crane’s safety system. The AML continuously monitors the load weight, angle, and boom length. If the system detects a potential overload that could compromise stability, it will sound an alarm and automatically stop the operation before an incident occurs.
  2. Digital Radio Controller: Operators can control the crane remotely with high precision using a wireless remote. The color screen on the remote displays vital information in real-time, such as the actual load, rated lifting capacity, and working radius. This allows the operator to position themselves in the safest location with the best visibility.
  3. Advanced Interlock Systems: The crane features a Jack Interlock System that ensures the crane cannot be operated until the outriggers are perfectly set on the ground. Furthermore, the Asymmetric Extension Width Control feature intelligently adjusts the lifting capacity based on the width of the outriggers that can be deployed, providing extra safety when working in confined spaces.

Field Applications: A Reliable Solution for Various Industries

Thanks to its specifications and technology, the TM-ZX1500 is a valuable asset in many sectors. In construction, it speeds up material handling and installation on-site. In the logistics industry, it minimizes the need for forklifts or additional cranes, thus saving operational costs. In mining and plantation areas, its mobility enables it to reach remote locations, supporting operational and maintenance activities.
