Sinotruk CDW 5 ton truck with crane Laos

Name: Sinotruk CDW 5 ton truck with crane Laos
Brand: Sinotruk HOWO

The Sinotruk CDW 5 ton truck with crane is a 4x2 left hand drive vehicle built on a HOWO chassis, designed for construction, logistics, and industrial site operations where a self-loading crane is required without needing a separate crane unit. It carries a 7000 kg payload and features a 160 HP diesel engine, 6-speed manual gearbox, and a high-strength cargo box with a 4800 x 2300 x 550 mm internal dimension. The crane is mounted on the rear and can rotate 360 degrees, extend and lift with precision, enabling efficient loading and unloading of heavy materials on uneven or remote sites.

Build Materials

Materials

High-strength steel used in crane structure and chassis frame
Steel cargo box with reinforced sides and floor for heavy load transport
Aluminium alloy components used in crane control panels and access doors
Toughened paint finish applied to body and crane for corrosion resistance
Rubber seals and gaskets used in crane joints and door mechanisms

How It Is Built

Manufacturing Process

Chassis is received from Sinotruk and inspected for alignment and frame integrity
Cargo box is fabricated from high-strength steel and welded to the chassis frame
Crane subframe is mounted and aligned with the chassis using precision jigs
Crane boom, hydraulic system, and control components are assembled and tested
Single cylinder synchronization and guy cable system is calibrated for balanced lifting
Float three-point bridge structure is installed to reduce chassis stress during travel
Electrical and hydraulic systems are pressure tested and checked for leaks
Vehicle is painted and logos applied as per customer specification
Final inspection includes crane operation test, load test, and safety system verification

Testing

Quality Control

Every truck undergoes 100 percent testing before delivery
Crane systems are tested under full load and extreme angles to verify stability
Hydraulic and electrical systems are pressure tested and inspected for leaks
All welds on the crane and chassis are checked using non-destructive testing
Safety features such as over-wind alarm and anti-slewing impulse are verified
Photos and videos of the finished truck are sent to the buyer before balance payment

Build to Order

Customization Options

Crane type can be selected as telescopic or knuckle boom based on lifting needs
Radio remote control and top seat control are available as optional fitments
Cargo box dimensions and internal layout can be adjusted to suit specific loads
Tank color and logo are provided free of charge and can be customized
Chassis can be ordered in left or right hand drive to match local traffic rules
Manufacture to customer supplied technical drawings and specifications

Comparison

How It Compares With the Alternatives

Mobile crane on a 6x4 chassis	More expensive to operate and less maneuverable in tight urban or rural areas
Truck with crane and no remote control	Slower operation and less safe in high-risk lifting zones
Used crane truck from a third party	Higher risk of mechanical failure and no warranty on crane components

Operating Notes

Use Guide

Confirm left or right hand drive at order stage as it cannot be changed after production
Use the radio remote control or top seat control only when the crane is fully supported and stable
Do not exceed the 7000 kg payload limit to avoid chassis and suspension damage
Check hydraulic fluid levels and pressure before each shift and after long idle periods
Engage the anti-slewing impulse system when traveling on uneven terrain
Perform routine maintenance on the crane’s hydraulic system and joints every 500 hours
