CFAO Equipment SA supplies PESCI and COPMA truck-mounted knuckle-boom cranes across South Africa and the wider Southern and East African market. Their case for the format is a practical one: a knuckle-boom crane on a truck platform moves between jobs, sectors and site conditions without giving up safety, efficiency or productivity, so one asset covers mining, construction, logistics, utilities, agriculture and specialised service work instead of several. That versatility is the point of the knuckle-boom format. The boom folds behind the cab when it is not working, so the vehicle stays road-legal and keeps its payload deck, and it unfolds to reach over obstacles and place a load precisely where it is needed. For an operator covering long distances between sites, the crane travels with the load rather than waiting on site for separate lifting equipment. CPS Group builds both ranges in Italy. Distribution and service in the region are handled by CFAO Equipment SA.
