Jib crane is a crane having an arm guyed at a fixed angle to the head of a rotating mast and it consists of a pivoting head and boom assembly which carries a hoist and trolley unit. The pivoting head is supported either by a floor-mounted mast providing 360 degree boom rotation or by an existing building column which provides 180 degrees of boom rotation. Advantages of Jib cranes : The advantage is the strength, stability and flexibility of the device. It is ideal for lifting a product to or from one material handling system to a work station or machine. It should be a repetitive process. Another advantage is that jib crane is commonly used for workstation and simple loading / unloading operations where it is not necessary to spot a load precisely. Also, Jib cranes most often handle lighter loads at lower duty cycles than their bridge and gantry crane counterparts.

Excellent post,
ReplyDeleteJib cranes are typically smaller in size, which make them perfect for industrial purposes. The cranes are often referred to simply as hoists.
Many thanks for great sharing.
