For landscaping teams, nurseries, and urban greening projects, seedling transportation and transplantation demand a crane that balances strength, reach, and adaptability. Delicate seedlings require gentle, precise handling, while job sites (from narrow nursery rows to urban parks) need equipment that’s both compact and powerful. The Expert in Seedling Transportation (SUNHUNK S1804) rises to this challenge: with a 7200kg rated load, 18t.m rated lifting capacity, and 14.6m max working range, it’s engineered to solve the unique pain points of seedling-related tasks. Let’s explore how its five specialized features make it the top choice for green industry professionals.

1. Q690D High-Strength Steel Structure: Strong Yet Lightweight

Seedling transportation often requires moving between job sites—and the SUNHUNK S1804 keeps mobility a priority with its Q690D high-strength steel plate welding for key structural components. This material delivers exceptional strength (supporting its 18t.m lifting capacity) while keeping the crane’s self-weight at just 3100kg—light enough for easy transport via standard vehicles. The high-strength design also protects delicate seedlings by minimizing structural flex during lifts, ensuring stable, gentle handling. For teams needing a balance of power and portability, the S1804 is a standout Q690D high-strength steel seedling crane.

2. Octagon Boom with Finite Element Analysis: Perfect Balance of Lightweight & Strength

The boom is critical for seedling lifting—and the S1804’s octagon boom is designed with finite element analysis to optimize strength. Unlike traditional round or hexagonal booms, the octagonal shape distributes weight and pressure evenly, balancing lightweight performance (ideal for maneuvering around fragile seedlings) with robust durability (for repeated lifts of 7200kg loads). This design also reduces boom sway during operation, ensuring precise placement of seedlings in planting holes. For green industry professionals, the S1804’s octagon boom makes it a reliable octagon boom seedling transportation crane.

3. 14.6m Full Extension Boom: Surpassing Class Competitors

Reaching tall seedlings or planting in deep beds requires ample boom length—and the SUNHUNK S1804 delivers with a 14.6m full extension length (across 4 boom sections). This surpasses other small-tonnage four-section boom products in its class, letting operators handle mature seedlings (up to 17m maximum lifting height) or reach over obstacles in nursery yards. The extended reach eliminates the need for repositioning the crane repeatedly, saving time and reducing the risk of damaging surrounding seedlings. For projects needing extra reach, the S1804 is an industry-leading 14.6m full extension boom crane.

4. 5m Fully Retracted Boom: Adaptable to 4x2 Chassis

Space is a premium in nurseries and urban greening sites—and the S1804’s 5m fully retracted boom length solves this challenge. It’s specifically designed to fit 4x2 chassis with different wheelbases, making the crane compact enough to navigate narrow nursery rows or tight city streets. This adaptability means the S1804 can access job sites that bulkier cranes can’t, from small community gardens to dense urban planting projects. For teams needing flexibility across diverse sites, the S1804’s compact retracted design makes it a top 4x2 chassis compatible seedling crane.

5. 6m Maximum Leg Span: Leading Stability in Its Class

Stability is non-negotiable when lifting heavy seedlings—especially on soft nursery soil. The S1804 boasts a 6m maximum leg span (6000mm support leg spread), leading other small-tonnage products in its class. This wide base distributes the crane’s weight evenly, preventing sinking into soft ground and ensuring stable lifts even with 7200kg loads. The stable platform also lets operators place seedlings with precision, reducing transplant shock and improving survival rates. For green industry tasks demanding reliability, the S1804 is a trusted 6m leg span seedling lifting crane.

Why Choose SUNHUNK S1804: The Expert in Seedling Transportation

The SUNHUNK S1804 isn’t just a crane—it’s a specialized tool built for the unique needs of seedling transportation and transplantation. From its Q690D steel strength to its class-leading boom length and leg span, every feature is engineered to make green industry tasks safer, faster, and more efficient. As shown in its engineering cases, it excels at tree seedling lifting, leveraging its long boom and wide leg span to handle even challenging projects with ease.
