Which mini crane best suits my type of work?
Choosing the right mini crane is important. You want to be sure that the crane matches the lifting capacity, the workspace, and the conditions on site. A wrong choice can cause delays or extra costs on the construction site.
Hoeflon helps you choose the right mini crane quickly and confidently. Below you can see our mini cranes with their key applications and features.
Which Hoeflon mini crane suits your job?
Hoeflon mini cranes differ in lifting capacity, working space, and application possibilities. Below, you can see the most common uses for each model.
Hoeflon C1e for light and extremely compact work
The Hoeflon C1e is the smallest crane in our range and was specially developed for work in very confined spaces. Think of indoor spaces, renovations, and installations where you have limited room to maneuver but need to lift accurately.
With a lifting capacity of 550 kg, a width of only 70 cm, and a weight of 1060 kg, the C1e is easy to transport in a commercial van or on a trailer. Additionally, the crane fits in an elevator, making it ideal for work in existing buildings or on upper floors. You use the C1e primarily for:
- installation work in residential and non-residential construction
- assembly in narrow passageways or indoor spaces
- work where the crane must enter via a lift or limited access
- light lifting operations where precision is important
- projects where compact transport and rapid deployment are important

Hoeflon C4e for flexible all-round work
The Hoeflon C4e is a compact mini crane with a lifting capacity of up to 2,350 kg. This crane is frequently used on construction sites where you need to lift heavier loads but still work in confined spaces. With a width of 76 cm, the C4e is maneuverable and suitable for both indoor and outdoor work.
Thanks to its compact design, the C4e is easy to transport with a trailer or pickup truck and can be quickly deployed at various locations within a single project. You primarily use the C4e for:
- assembly work on construction sites and in the utility sector
- renovation projects involving varied tasks
- placement of prefabricated components
- work at locations with different surfaces
- projects where speed and versatility are important
Hoeflon C6e for versatile lifting work with higher capacity
The Hoeflon C6e is a powerful mini crane with a lifting capacity of up to 3,000 kg. This crane is deployed when heavier loads must be combined with precise and controlled hoisting in confined spaces. The C6e can lift more than its own weight, making it suitable for precision work under load.
Thanks to the hydraulically adjustable and extendable outriggers, the crane stands stably on various surfaces, even when the situation is complex. You primarily use the C6e for:
- installing glass and facade structures
- assembling steel structures
- hoisting precast concrete and building elements
- working at height with limited workspace
- projects where exact positioning under load is essential

Hoeflon C10e heavy and industrial work
The Hoeflon C10e is a mini crane with a lifting capacity of up to 4,000 kg and a lifting height of up to 22 meters. This crane is used in industrial projects and heavy construction applications where work is carried out continuously under high loads. Despite its power, the C10e remains maneuverable and can be deployed in locations with limited space. You use the C10e primarily for:
- industrial machine installations
- assembly of heavy steel structures
- work in production and factory environments
- moving large prefabricated parts
- projects where high capacity and stability are continuously required
Hoeflon C30e for maximum capacity and heavy transport work
In the heaviest lifting and transport projects, everything revolves around maximum capacity, controlled movement, and absolute reliability under load. The Hoeflon C30e is deployed when compact cranes are no longer sufficient and very large structures or heavy components must be moved safely and precisely in complex industrial environments. You use the C30e primarily for:
- heavy industrial installations
- large steel structures and infrastructure projects
- moving heavy machine parts
- complex lifting and assembly operations on construction sites
- projects where maximum control and capacity are required
