Features and applications of slewing jib cranes and jib booms
Slewing jib cranes are used to move heavy loads from one place to another in production. They lift the corresponding weights, move them to their destination and place them in the right position. Jib cranes and jib booms thus optimise your work processes and relieve your employees. In addition to transporting loads, slewing jib cranes are also used to assemble machine parts and produce goods. The heavy loads are not damaged during transport. The lifting function of the installed electric chain hoists enables the careful lifting, slewing and lowering of weights.
The differences between pillar-mounted and wall-mounted slewing jib cranes
Pillar-mounted slewing jib cranes and wall-mounted slewing jib cranes are both stationary. They therefore carry out the necessary work steps in the same place, are permanently installed and significantly simplify routine load movements.
Pillar-mounted slewing jib cranes have a pillar from which the jib extends. The column of this type of slewing jib crane is either securely mounted using a foundation or can also be anchored directly to the concrete floor using a patented fastening system. Pillar-mounted slewing jib cranes have a slewing range of 270°. They also have a large span, which makes it easier to move objects and optimises your production processes.
Wall-mounted slewing jib cranes, on the other hand, are not fixed to the floor but to a stable wall. Their advantage over pillar-mounted slewing jib cranes is that they take up less space, as the area on the floor remains free. They have a slewing range of 180°, so they are still sufficiently flexible for many production processes.
