Jib cranes offer a lifting capacity of up to 5 tons with rotation ranges up to 360°, depending on the model. Designed for localized lifting, they are ideal for workshops, assembly stations, fabrication floors, and loading bays. Available in wall-mounted or free-standing models, jib cranes can be customized to fit tight spaces or supplement larger crane systems. Modular installation options make them adaptable to evolving floor layouts.
Operators benefit from smoother workflows with minimal manual effort. The simple design and close-range lifting enable repetitive tasks to be done quickly and safely.
