Types of Jib Cranes
Jib cranes are available in multiple configurations to support a variety of applications in factories, machining cells, and warehouses.
Free Standing Jib Crane
The most widely used jib crane, commonly employed in spaces requiring light-duty lifting. These types of floor mounted jib cranes provide 360° of rotation and are a common feature in both indoor and outdoor work locations.
Wall Mounted Jib Crane
Attached to a building’s vertical support beams, these lifting devices provide hoist coverage in bays or along walls and columns. Single contact point bearings allow for easy rotation of up to 200°. Wall bracket jib cranes and wall cantilever jib cranes are both available, for businesses that require easy adjustment or greater flexibility.
Mast Type Jib Crane
Bolted/mounted to the floor and support structure, special foundation requirements may be required depending on foundation and application of the Jib Crane. Mast type crane systems can be fully-cantilevered or drop-cantilevered, depending on the layout of your building and work areas.
Articulating Jib Crane
Constructed with two articulating arms that offer maximum flexibility when moving and positioning lighter loads. Capable of 360° rotation, these cranes are designed to reach around corners and columns and under other equipment.
Foundationless Jib Crane
Does not require specially poured foundations and can be placed anywhere in your facility in order to improve safety and productivity. Offers less downtime, less cost, and greater mobility. With no foundation, the crane can be quickly relocated according to the needs of your operation.
