A free standing jib crane is a piece of equipment used for lifting and moving cargo in an industrial environment. It is usually composed of columns, jibs, lifting machinery and control systems, and can flexibly carry out horizontal and vertical movement and lifting operations within a certain range.
This type of crane is usually mounted on the ground, and its independent column structure allows it to operate independently without building support. The jib of a free standing jib crane jib crane can rotate 360 degrees, allowing it to cover a wider working range, making it very useful where goods need to be moved frequently.
Working principle
Column support: Independent jib cranes usually use a column to support the entire equipment, allowing it to stand independently on the ground.
Jib movement: The jib can rotate 360 degrees in the horizontal direction, which allows the crane to cover a wider working range. The rotation of the swing arm is usually driven by an electric motor or hydraulic system.
Lifting machinery: Lifting machinery is usually located at the end of the jib and includes a crane hook, sling or other lifting device used to connect and lift cargo.
Control system: The independent jib crane is equipped with a corresponding control system, which can control the movement of the jib and the hoisting machinery through buttons, remote controls or other operating devices to achieve operations such as lifting, lowering and lateral movement of goods.
Safety devices: In order to ensure the safety of operation, independent jib cranes are usually equipped with various safety devices, such as limit switches, overload protection devices, emergency stop buttons, etc.
Features
This independence allows the jib crane to perform lifting and handling operations in locations without other support facilities.
The swing arm can rotate 360 degrees in the horizontal direction, allowing it to cover a wider working range, making it very useful in situations where frequent movement of goods is required.
It can carry out horizontal and vertical moving and lifting operations within a certain range. This flexibility makes it suitable for a variety of different work scenarios.
It is used in factories, warehouses, logistics centers and other places to transport light-weight goods, such as assembly, stacking, loading and unloading of goods on production lines.
Equipped with a corresponding control system, the movement of the jib and hoisting machinery can be controlled through buttons, remote controls or other operating devices. The operation is relatively simple and convenient.
