Why Choose an 80Kgs SWL Free Standing Jib Crane - Over Braced?
There are many advantages to purchasing a free-standing Jib Crane, they are extremely versatile within a factory, speeding up the lifting and moving of components off presses or workbenches, and loading or unloading lorries. Lifting heavy objects such as granite, timber or steel.
Jib cranes are made up of two main parts, the pillar, and the arm, therefore a simple manual jib crane does not have many parts to maintain, making them extremely reliable, which in turn means they do not break down, so no loss in production time.
Easy to install.
The 80Kgs SWL Free Standing Jib Crane - Over Braced version simply bolts to the floor via the Jib Crane base plate and chemical resin anchor bolts. Once you have checked your floor is suitable for a jib crane and bought it, we arrange to manufacture the jib, and then when it is supplied to the site, the floor just needs to be drilled and the floor mounting plate secured - We at Ultimate Lifting Solutions offer this service and can offer full installation by using our own highly trained engineers or just the commissioning/ load testing, we can offer a package to meet your requirements.
Because of the simple design, they are inexpensive to both buy and maintain compared to other cranes. Under normal working conditions, they will only need an industry standard 12 monthly services. We at Ultimate Lifting Solutions offer this service and can offer various maintenance/service packages to meet your requirements.
How does Swing Jib Crane work?
A standard swing Jib has two main parts - The Pillar and the Arm. The arm can rotate from left to right and vice versa the swing or slew angle is set at 270° as standard. On all our swing jibs up to 1,000Kgs, they will slew with ease without the requirements of powered assistance, hence keeping the costs down.
The arm on our Jib cranes is supplied with a trolley, which moves up and down the full length of the arm, this trolley gives you the reach and flexibility to reach into corners of your factory with ease.
What else is required for 80Kgs SWL Free Standing Jib Crane - Over Braced?
You now have your Swing Jib fitted. You now need a hoist, these fit easily to the trolley that was supplied free of charge with the freestanding jib crane. You just need to decide what hoist you need. To keep the costs down a manual hoist is the cheapest option, but you will not save on production time, as they are slow and do need assistance by hand, and sometimes for larger items, you might not be able to reach them. The second option and best option is an Electric Hoist, these hoists enable you to easily lift and lower your components quickly, cutting down on production time, and it will soon pay for itself in time saved.
Installation.
As mentioned above, the 80KgsSWL Free Standing Jib Crane - Over Braced version can be an easy install, once installed and the hoist fitted, all that is left is commissioning, testing, and signing off the Jib as safe to use. we are more than happy for all our customers to install themselves or find their installation team. We are also more than happy to offer our engineers to take away this task. We can install the Jib, install the Hoist, commission, and test and we will not leave the site until everything is working correctly and safely.

All our manufactured Jibs are:
Duty classification: A3 according to BS 733: 1990
All jibs are lubrication free. The pivot bushes are acetal and therefore do not require lubrication. The trolleys running surfaces are also lubrication free.
Manual slewing and trolley travel operation
Minimal maintenance requirement
A clutch-controlled slewing mechanism can be tightened/loosened to control how freely the arm pivots.
Bases are fully welded to the column – in most situations this removes the need for an oversized load spreading plate or setting an anchor frame into concrete, therefore making installation much quicker and more cost-effective.
