In addition any special configuration can be manufactured using knuckle jibs for confined spaces.
We can recommend the base size:
In order to anchor a jib crane, it is essential to fulfil two conditions:
- Consideration to site conditions
- Ground pressure & stability of the crane and anchor block must be assured
Information required for the formulation of a specification:
- Height from control pendant to floor
- Type of jib crane; wall, with partial or complete rotation
- Maximum load to be lifted
- Radius: distance from the axis of rotation to the axis of the hoist trolled
- Height under the jib arm
- Desired height of lift
- Height from control level to ground (in the case of electric hoist)
- Space free from obstruction above the crane
- Power supply for jib cranes with powered hoisting
- Intended usage: loading, maintenance, production
- Interior or exterior use
- Intensity of use (light, medium or heavy duty)
- Atmosphere (normal, dusty, corrosive, humid)
- Assembled complete or in kit form
