Maeda MC405 Mini Crawler Crane — Product Description

The Maeda MC405 is a powerful and versatile mini crawler crane designed for projects that demand greater lift capacity and reach while still maintaining tight-access capability. As a step up from the MC305, the MC405 delivers increased performance for heavier picks without sacrificing the compact footprint that makes Maeda cranes so effective on restricted job sites.

With its 4-ton class lifting capacity, smooth hydraulic operation, and 360° continuous rotation, the MC405 is ideal for contractors who regularly handle heavier structural, mechanical, or industrial loads but still need to operate in confined areas. Its crawler undercarriage provides excellent stability and maneuverability, allowing precise placement of loads on congested or uneven sites.

The MC405 is a proven solution for demanding applications where reliability, control, and lifting power are critical — bridging the gap between smaller mini cranes and larger conventional cranes.

What It’s Ideal For

The MC405 is well suited for:

Structural steel and miscellaneous metals
Heavier mechanical and HVAC equipment placement
Glass, façade, and curtain wall installation
Industrial maintenance and plant work
Interior and exterior lifts with limited access
Projects requiring more capacity than a 305-class crane

Why Contractors Choose the MC405

4-ton class lifting capability in a compact crawler design
Excellent stability and smooth load control
360° continuous rotation for precise positioning
Radio remote operation with integrated safety systems
Crawler mobility for tight or uneven job sites
Optional searcher hook and auxiliary winch for added versatility

The Maeda MC405 delivers the extra capacity contractors need while preserving the access and control advantages that make mini crawler cranes indispensable on modern job sites.
