What Is Slewing Jib Crane?

Slewing jib crane (also know as pillar jib crane ) is a new generation of light lifting equipment, which adapts to modern production. With the high reliability of model JPKK chain electric hoist, slewing jib crane is especially suitable for short distance, frequently use, and intensive lifting operation. Slewing jib crane has various functions, such as lifting, running back and forth on the beam. The arm beam can be driven by a rotary device at the speed of the rotary motion of the roller, electric control box installed on the chain hoist.

Slewing jib crane, maybe is one of the most versatile lifting equipments. Easy to install and less structural limitations than many other equipments, slewing jib crane is widely applied to all customers, from small workshops to production line, the ports, even nuclear power plants.

Slewing jib crane application

Slewing jib crane can be widely used in many important industry fields as the infrastructure engineering machinery and equipment, such as the port, electric power, steel, shipbuilding, petrochemical, mining, railway, building, metallurgy, chemical industry, automobile manufacturing, plastics machinery, industrial control, highway, bulk transportation, pipe linings, slope protection, assistance and salvage at sea, tunnel, airport construction, bridges, aviation, spaceflight, venues etc.
It has the advantages of reasonable structure, convenient operation, flexible rotation, large working space and so on. It is an energy saving and efficient material lifting equipment.

Slewing Jib Crane Component

The slewing jib crane is composed of an upright post device, rotary device, rotary arm device and chain electric hoist, such as, including above column, down column, beams, the girder rod, lifting mechanism (electric chain hoist), slewing mechanism, electrical system, climbing ladder and maintenance platform. The lower end of the column is fixed on the concrete foundation, and the rotary arm can rotate according to the user's needs. Rotary parts are divided into manual rotary and electric rotary. Chain electric hoist, installed on the rotating arm track, is used for lifting heavy objects.

Slewing Jib Crane Working

Slewing Jib Crane Working Principle

Slewing jib crane work intensity is light, and the crane is composed of an upright post device, rotary device, rotary arm device and chain electric hoist, the lower end of the column by the anchor bolts fixed in the concrete foundation, composed of a cycloidal pin wheel speed reducer to drive the rotary cantilever, electric hoist running back and forth on the main beam and lifting heavy objects. Crane boom is a hollow steel structure, light weight, large span, from the weight of large, economical and durable. The built-in type walking mechanism has characteristics of rolling wheel, small friction and brisk walking, because of adopting the special engineer plastic. What’s more, the small size structure is especially beneficial to improve the hook stroke.

Slewing Jib Crane Operation Notice

The machine operation is implemented through the flashlight door button. There are eight buttons, flashlight door controlling fast lowered, fast, slow rise and slow down, left and right turning gourd car level before and after the walk.

Slewing Jib Crane Is Your Ideal Choice

Form above, we know about the slewing jib crane. It is usually recommended indoor lifting operation. It also can be used for some outdoor lifting task. But considering the weather conditions, it should be protected by some extra protective equipment. Slewing jib crane contains many safety features to adapt to all weather conditions and guarantee long service life and productivity.
   
In addition, slewing crane support various attachments to increase flexibility. You can use different hoists to complete different work. The operators can easily choose the most suitable one for their application.
