Small Cranes Hit The Big Screen
The Spidey sequel is just the first of many upcoming films in which Jekko minicranes play a role.
Columbia Pictures’ The Amazing Spiderman II has already hit the big screen, effectively kicking off the summer movie season, but what you might not know is that an SPX1040 from JekkoUSA was a critical piece of equipment in the construction of steel framing on multiple sets. Not only that, but the 1040 helped support some of the stunt performers during aerial work filming. See a trailer for the film below.
In addition, a pair of SPD360C+ minicranes will be part of the on-screen action in Paramount Pictures’ upcoming Transformers 4: Age of Extinction. Other major film studios have seen the utility of the compact Jekkos, as well as their maneuverability and ease of use. Keep a sharp eye for Jekko minicranes—coming to a theatre near you.
