Articulating Jib Cranes can position loads in places you cannot reach with traditional jibs. They provide easy rotation and consistent responsiveness when positioning loads throughout the crane’s coverage area. Gorbel™ Wall/Column Mounted Articulating Jibs can handle up to 200° rotation for the primary boom and up to 360° for the secondary boom. Gorbel’s Free Standing and Ceiling Mounted Articulating Jibs can rotate up to 360° on the primary and secondary booms.
Free Standing Articulating Jib Crane
Free standing articulating jib cranes are perfect for applications that demand the use of an articulating jib, but there are no walls or columns to mount the crane. This crane offers effortless rotation and consistent responsiveness when positioning loads in a work cell, through open doorways, or into machines.
- Capacities up to 2,000 lbs.
- Circular coverage: standard spans to 16'
- 360˚ rotation at each pivot point
- Can be used with hook mounted lifting devices (electric, air, or vacuum)
Features
- Installation: floor mounted, easy to install
- Effortless rotation
- Special foundations may be required -contact factory for assistance
Ceiling Mounted Articulating Jib Crane
Ceiling Mounted Articulating Jib Cranes can be stationary mounted or platform supported from a Gorbel® Work Station Dual Girder Bridge Crane, which enables usage outside the normal coverage of
a bridge crane or the jib to swing under obstructions. With the jib mounted to a platform, multiple work cells can be covered with just one crane and lifting device.
