Two of the leading US crane body designers and distributors have partnered up.
American Trailer World (aka ATW), announced a new partnership Tiger Cranes, where both companies hope customers will find a structurally premium crane body with a full range of lifting capacity when working in the field.
ATW is also a leading North America manufacturer, distributor, and retailer of professional and consumer grade trailers, truck equipment, parts, and accessories.
Tiger Cranes is based in Sioux Center, Iowa, and is the crane brand of Service Trucks International, a leading manufacturer of custom mechanics bodies. Founded in 1985, STI has a long history of providing premium quality lifting devices to the Truck Equipment industry.
A new crane body from CM Truck Beds and Dakota Bodies will also feature triple lined doors, heavy-duty decks, and available C Tech cabinets to allow users to customize their storage solutions. ATW Truck Equipment is the parent company of CM and Dakota.
"As users have demanded a more user-friendly crane body, our engineering and design teams have worked hard to develop a body that gives users many features while maintaining a price point that is palatable in the marketplace," said Joe Lewis, Vice President of ATW Truck Equipment. "With the ability to plasma cut all crane platforms to seamlessly fit the Tiger Cranes assembly, we are significantly reducing installation time and therefore allowing our customers to get to work faster."
These crane bodies will also feature the newly released remote control door locks as an option. The new body is available in both 60-inch and 84-inch cab-to-axle configurations with tall front vertical boxes available on the curb side of the body.
Tiger Cranes allows installers and users a turnkey, technologically advanced, and easy-to-use solution for customers' crane body needs.
"We are continually changing and updating our Tiger Cranes offerings to offer our partners and customers the latest innovation," said Tim Henrich, National Sales Manager of Tiger Cranes. "We were one of the first to have a load management system built into the crane controller."
CM Truck Beds currently distributes its products through a network of over 300 distributors across North America. Dakota Bodies, based in Watertown, South Dakota is a leading Utility Body manufacturer, focusing on standard service bodies and custom utility bodies.
