Client’s Requirement

• This time a client from Oman, sent us an inquiry that he needed jib crane systems in a building that was designed for a machine manufacturing use.
• The problem was how to meet the scope of work performed by the end user. As an integral part of the fabrication process, the user needed to move machines in various stages of assembly from workstation to workstation within the building.
• In addition, the customer needed the crane system be flexible to rotate and allow constant reconfiguration of work areas depending on what was being fabricated.

Our Solution

• A floor mounted jib crane from DQCRANES enables production staff to move the six metre long jib smoothly and easily.
• As a hoist unit, a 2 ton wire rope hoist ensures fast and precise component transport in the production process.
• The combination of pillar jib crane and electric rope hoist provides the ergonomics, functionality and aesthetics envisioned by the customer.

Jib Crane Design and Components
For the most part, jib systems have a very basic design and construction. Compared to workstation cranes and bridge or gantry cranes, they’re simple to operate, and require less maintenance because they have less parts that could potentially breakdown or fail.

Below are some of the design features of jib crane for your reference:

1. Reach/Boom – the horizontal beam that the trolley travels back and forth on.
2. Mast/Pillar – the vertical beam used to support the boom on freestanding and mast systems.
3. Movable Hoist – the hoist is used to lift, position, and lower a load.
4. Trolley – the motion of the trolley can be manual, motorized, or fixed. The trolley carries the hoist, wire rope or chain, and the hook along the entire length of the boom.
5. Rotation – on free standing and mast type jib cranes, you can achieve 360° of boom rotation. On wall and column-mounted jib cranes, you can achieve 180-200° of rotation.
6. Electrification Power – electric collector rings can be added to the top or bottom of the mast to provide rotation assistance and allow for continuous 360° boom rotation.
7. Controls – on motorized or manual jib systems, you can hand-pushing or use a push button controller to control the rotation of the boom, as well as the motion of the trolley and the lifting and lowering motion of the hoist. Multi-speed or variable speed controls are available for the hoist and trolley.
8. Hook Height – How high can you or do you want to go with your lifts? You’ll need to know the lowest overhead obstruction to know how tall your jib crane can be.
9. Rotation Stop – if the crane is located close to a wall or other obstruction, a rotation stop will limit the crane’s motion before it collides with a nearby object.
10. Environmental Considerations – the components of the jib system can be galvanized to resist corrosion for outdoor applications. Also, special control enclosures can be designed for explosion proof applications, and other environments where heat, dust and dirt, or moisture may be a factor.

• Jib crane type: Floor jib crane? Wall jib crane? Mobile jib crane?
• Lifting capacity:
• Lifting height:
• Span (arm length):
• Power supply (e.g. 380V 50Hz 3Phase):
• Rotation: 90°? 180°? 270°? 360°?
• Rotation type: manual or electrical?
• Hoist type you prefer: electric wire rope hoist, electric chain hoist, manual chain hoist
• Used indoor or outdoor?
• What materials will the jib crane lift?
