Jib Cranes - Materials Handling
If you have repetitive tasks that need lifting and handling equipment, jib cranes can be a very practical option. They improve worker safety and productivity, and are a cost-effective, reliable solution. Jib cranes are available in different classes, from Class F to Class H.
Class F jib cranes
Jib cranes are used by construction companies to move heavy materials into difficult-to-reach places. These locations may include underground foundations or multi-floor buildings. Jib cranes are designed to lift stacks of materials to the desired location, saving manual labor and enhancing productivity.
Class G jib cranes
Jib cranes are used to lift heavy materials into difficult-to-reach locations. For instance, they can be used to transfer materials into multi-floor buildings or underground foundations. These cranes can be easily maneuvered and can save both time and manual labor. This feature makes them ideal for materials handling applications.
Class H jib cranes
Jib crane manufacturers provide large industrial machines that are used for loading and unloading products from trucks or ships. They can lift up to 10 tons of weight. They can be operated manually, electrically, or pneumatically. They come in different sizes and can be used for a variety of applications.
Class I jib cranes
A Class I jib crane can be used for a variety of tasks. It can be galvanized for outdoor use and come with explosion-proof enclosures. The length of the boom is also an important consideration. The size of the boom should be proportionate to the amount of space it requires to reach and place the load. There are many different types of jib cranes available, each with different advantages and disadvantages.
Class II jib cranes
One of the main challenges in the construction industry is the need to move heavy materials into difficult to reach locations, such as underground foundations or multi-level buildings. Jib cranes are ideal for these applications, as they can shift stacks of materials into difficult-to-reach areas without requiring manual labor. As a result, jib cranes improve productivity and save time.
Class III jib cranes
Jib cranes are mechanical and electrical devices. These devices usually use an electrical motor and heavy-duty chain drive. They can be controlled using a push button pendant system. Operators use these controls to control the height, positioning, and lowering of the load. Generally, the boom rotation speed is 1/2 RPM, but can be increased to 1 RPM. The electrical collector assembly includes a junction box and internal wiring.
Class IV jib cranes
Bushman (r) offers motorized jib cranes. These cranes can be customized to fit a specific foundation and attachment point. These cranes are popular for controlling loads in inaccessible areas and are designed to be durable and provide years of trouble-free operation.
