Crane lifting capacity varies depending on the type and model of the crane. Mobile cranes can lift 5 to over 1,000 tons, crawler cranes range from 50 to 3,500+ tons, and tower cranes can lift 1 to 20+ tons. Other types, such as rough terrain, all-terrain, truck-mounted, floating, overhead, gantry, and jib cranes, have different lifting capacities.
