Jekko has unveiled its new JF1050 crawler crane equipped with an articulated boom, marking the Italian manufacturer's entry into a market segment currently dominated by established players such as Spierings Mobile Cranes from the Netherlands. The compact crane features all-wheel drive for enhanced manoeuvrability on confined sites. The JF1050 targets contractors working in urban construction, renovation projects, and interior installations where access is restricted. No technical specifications or pricing have been released yet, but the model's articulated boom design suggests positioning as a direct competitor to city cranes from Spierings and other European manufacturers.
