Description
Jib Crane
Product Overview and Highlights:
A Jib crane is a compact and efficient lifting solution designed for workshops and plants where space is limited or where overhead and gantry cranes are not practical. By rotating the jib arm instead of traveling along rails, the Jib crane provides precise material handling within a defined circular working area. It is ideal for light to medium-duty lifting tasks up to 10–16 tons, with flexible installation options to suit different site conditions.
1.360° rotation for maximum workspace coverage.
2.Compact structure with minimal floor space requirement.
3.Easy installation and relocation.
4.Manual or electric rotation available.
5.Cost-effective solution for localized lifting tasks.

Product Features and Applications:
1.Flexible installation: Available as a floor mounted jib crane, wall mounted jib crane, or free standing jib crane
2.High space utilization: Covers a circular work area without runway beams
3.Strong adaptability: Easily integrated into existing workshops or production lines
4.Efficient lifting: Ideal for repetitive, short-distance material handling
The jib cranes are widely used in manufacturing, assembly lines, warehouses, loading docks, shipyards, and maintenance areas
Product Details:
1.Column: Heavy-duty steel column with tapered bearings, providing stable rotation and strong load support.
2.Jib Arm: Welded I-beam or box beam structure, supporting smooth trolley travel and hoist operation.
3.Rotation Mechanism: Manual or motor-driven reducer enables controlled and reliable slewing around the column.
4.Electric Hoist: Wire rope or chain hoist options, tested for dynamic and static loads to ensure safe lifting.
5.Electrical Control System: Reliable control cabinet with emergency stop and overload protection for safe operation.
FAQs:
Q: What is the main advantage of a Jib crane compared to overhead cranes?
A: A Jib crane offers localized lifting with lower cost, easier installation, and better space efficiency for small work areas.
Q: Which installation type should I choose?
A: A free standing jib crane suits higher loads and full rotation, while wall mounted jib cranes are ideal for saving floor space.
Q: Can the Jib crane be manually operated?
A: Yes. Both manual and electric rotation options are available based on load and usage frequency.
Q: Is a Jib crane suitable for continuous operation?
A: Yes. With proper configuration and work duty selection, a Jib crane can handle repetitive industrial lifting tasks reliably.
