How to Choose Between Three Different Types of Jib Cranes

Jib crane mainly drives the drum through the motor, and the wire rope wound on the drum drives the hook to move up and down, so as to realize the lifting of materials. Different types of jib cranes may differ in specific driving methods and structural designs, but the basic working principles are similar.

Floor Mounted Jib Crane

-The structure is simple, consisting of a column and a cantilever, and the installation is convenient and quick.

-The column is fixed on the ground or the supporting structure, with good stability, suitable for relatively fixed working areas.

-It is often used in occasions where frequent lifting operations are carried out, such as the lifting of materials at specific workstations in production workshops.

Jib Crane on Wheels

-The bottom is equipped with wheels, which can be flexibly moved to adapt to lifting work in different locations.

-Convenient and fast, no complicated installation process is required, and the lifting point can be adjusted at any time.

-Suitable for places where the storage location of goods is not fixed, such as large warehouses.

Wall Mounted Jib Crane

-Installed on the wall, saving space and not occupying too much ground area.

– Suitable for work sites with limited space, especially in the corners of workshops, where the wall space can be fully utilized.

– Compact structure, does not affect the layout and operation of other equipment.

When choosing the type of jib crane, the following factors need to be considered comprehensively:

-Working environment: Including site size, space layout, ground conditions, etc.

-Characteristics of hoisted objects: Such as weight, size, shape, etc.

-Hoisting frequency: Frequent hoisting occasions need to choose a type with high stability and convenient operation.

-Space requirements: Space-saving wall mounted jib cranes should be selected for places with limited space.

For example, small machinery processing plants frequently hoist small parts in a specific area, and pillar jib cranes are more suitable; large warehouses have unfixed storage locations for goods, and mobile jib cranes can better meet the needs; in the corners of workshops with compact space, wall mounted jib cranes can make full use of wall space.

Different types of jib cranes have their own characteristics and advantages. When choosing, they should be comprehensively considered based on factors such as the specific working environment, hoisting object characteristics, hoisting frequency and space requirements. Pillar jib crane is suitable for relatively fixed working areas; mobile jib crane is characterized by strong flexibility; wall mounted jib crane saves space.
