A Jib crane is a type of crane where a horizontal member (jib or boom), supporting a moveable hoist, is fixed to a wall or to a floor-mounted pillar. Jib cranes are used in industrial premises and on military vehicles. The jib may swing through an arc, to give additional lateral movement, or be fixed. Similar cranes, often known simply as hoists, were fitted on the top floor of warehouse buildings to enable goods to be lifted to all floors.

Problem:

In review of the production process, plant managers found that the large overhead cranes were being subject to significant downtime caused by tedious tasks like ladle lid removal and replacement. This was proving to be not only inefficient, but also difficult due to the size of the overhead crane.

Free Standing Work Station Jib Cranes：

Are the ideal substitute for traditional, heavy I-Beam Jib Cranes. These jibs are designed to service circular areas and support tool balancers, air balancers, vacuum lifters, and hoists. When floor mounted, they can accommodate up to a 360° rotation. Capacities are available from 100 lbs. to 1000 lbs. with spans up to 16 ft.
Most can be bolted directly to existing floors without adding special foundations
Feature a retaining pin through the pivot pin to help resist accidental upward dislodgement of the boom assembly
Includes hoist trolley
Roller bearings provide for unsurpassed ease of movement.
