HS v2022 Code: 842691

About cranes and derricks; designed for mounting on road vehicles

HS code 842691 covers cranes and derricks designed for mounting on road vehicles. These specialized equipment play a crucial role in the construction, infrastructure, and logistics industries, enabling the efficient movement and placement of heavy loads at job sites. As a key component of material handling systems, cranes and derricks mounted on road vehicles contribute significantly to the overall productivity and cost-effectiveness of various industrial and commercial operations.

Production process

The production of cranes and derricks designed for mounting on road vehicles involves a complex manufacturing process. It typically starts with the fabrication of the crane or derrick structure, which is often made from high-strength steel or aluminum alloys. The components are then assembled, with a focus on ensuring structural integrity, stability, and smooth operation. Specialized hydraulic systems, electronic controls, and safety features are integrated to enable precise and safe maneuvering of the equipment. Finally, the completed unit is mounted on a suitable road vehicle chassis, ensuring optimal mobility and ease of transportation.

Production inputs

The production of HS code 842691 items requires a range of inputs, including raw materials such as steel, aluminum, and various metal alloys. Specialized hydraulic components, electronic control systems, and safety equipment are also essential inputs. Additionally, the manufacturing process relies on advanced machinery and tools, as well as skilled labor to assemble and test the final products.

Production outputs

Cranes and derricks classified under HS code 842691 are primarily used in construction, infrastructure development, and logistics operations. These versatile equipment are often employed in the erection of buildings, bridges, and other large-scale structures, as well as the loading and unloading of cargo at ports, warehouses, and other transportation hubs. The output of this industry may be consumed by 870410 Dumpers designed for off-highway use, 842619 Derricks; not designed for mounting on road vehicles, and 842620 Cranes; not designed for mounting on road vehicles.
