Wall traveling jib cranes are a cost-effective solution for lifting and moving heavy material. Custom engineered
wall traveling jib cranes are a perfect complement to an overhead crane system to perform tasks efficiently without
tying up an overhead crane. A wall traveling jib crane can also be used to cover a series of workstation cranes
with little or no downtime waiting for an overhead crane.
Features
Wall traveling jib crane end trucks use channel beam/construction frames to resist twisting and are jig-fixtured
and machined to maintain consistent manufacturing tolerances. Bolt type connection to back frame eases erection
and assembly. The top running end truck on a wall traveling jib crane utilizes forged steel double flange crane
wheels for long life. The wall traveling jib crane drive utilizes squirrel cage motor with double reduction spur
gear reducer. Standard single speed controls include mainline contactor, control transformer, inverter acceleration
control and fuses in NEMA 3R, 4, 12 control enclosures. The wall traveling jib crane boom is fabricated from
standard “S” beam with vertical angle truss to reduce deflection. Jib crane boom and truss bolt to back frame
for ease of erection and assembly.
Customization
Multi-speed wall traveling jib crane units are available as well. These wall traveling jib cranes are equipped
with variable frequency drives.
Design Factor
Wall traveling jib cranes exert severe forces on a building structure. Jib cranes should not be supported from
any existing building structure without first consulting a qualified architect or engineer for the purpose of
determining of the structure is adequate. Severe bodily injury and property damage can result if this procedure
is not followed.
This equipment is not, in any way, designed for the lifting, supporting, or transporting humans. Failure to follow
the specified load and mounting limitations can result in serious bodily injury and/or property damage.
