A tow truck is a truck used to transport disabled, incorrectly parked, impounded, or otherwise indisposed motor vehicles. It is also referred to as a wrecker, breakdown truck, recovery vehicle, or breakdown lorry. This may entail rescuing a car that has been damaged in an accident, bringing a car back to drivable condition after an accident or bad weather, or towing or flat-beding a car to a garage or other destination.
A car carrier trailer, which is employed in ordinary transport operations to carry numerous new or used vehicles at once, is not a tow truck. employs a winch and an adjustable boom to pull cars out of ditches, over embankments, or any other situation where backing up wouldn’t be safe. there are fixed booms; Some make use of large pivoting A-frames, while others include telescopic cylinders that are propelled by hydraulics.
A “rotator” is a form of heavy-duty boom that can rotate, thereby converting a tow truck into a mobile crane. Rotators are typically used in collisions involving large automobiles. Boom trucks once employed a “hook and chain” arrangement in which chains are wrapped around the frame or axle of the vehicle and then raised by a boom winch.
The truck and car are connected by a towbar with thick rubberized mats so that it can be hauled using its other axle. As a further evolution, “slings” and “belt lifts” were created, in which rubber straps took the place of some of the chains.
The Global Hydraulic Tow Truck market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
