Description
A low headroom jib crane is an optimal solution in production lines with height restrictions or limited space. The column jib crane is easy to install, with a lifting capacity of up to 250 kg. It has a maximum column height of 3,5 m and an arm length of 5 meters.
FEATURES
- Optimum solution when available height is limited.
- Improves workstation ergonomics and productivity.
- Can be used with electric or manual chain hoists and various lifting devices.
- Easy and fast to install.
Enclosed Track Profile
STEEL ENCLOSED PROFILES
The steel-enclosed profiles come in four sizes, P125, S140, S200 and S260 and are made of high-tensile steel, which allows higher stresses and bigger suspension loads. The steel-enclosed profiles allow 300 kg upward forces when equipped with an SW trolley. The steel-enclosed profiles have a world class weight–load carrying capacity ratio. All steel-enclosed profiles are rolled from one metal sheet to precise tolerances. Each enclosed profile’s cambering and opening are measured to ensure the highest quality. The S200 and S260 profiles can be equipped with an internal conductor rail (ICR).

ALUMINIUM ENCLOSED PROFILES
Aluminium enclosed profiles come in four sizes, Alu 2/105, Alu 3/140, Alu 4/180 and Alu 5/220 and are made of high-quality anodised aluminium. They have outstanding geometry and can take up to 500 kg upward forces with a standard trolley. The enclosed profiles allow smooth and light operation of the hoist and bridge. The enclosed profiles have unique ID stripes to help with identification and installation. Alu 4/180 and Alu 5/220 can be equipped with an internal conductor rail (ICR).

Powered Movements
POWERED MOVEMENTS FOR THE TROLLEY AND SLEW MOVEMENTS OF A JIB CRANE
Electrical movements are essential when the manual operation of the jib crane is impractical or inefficient. They provide enhanced precision, efficiency, and ease of use, particularly for heavier loads or applications requiring frequent and repetitive movements. Motorised slewing, is powered by an electric or hydraulic drive system for smoother and more controlled operation. A jib crane with electrical trolleys is typically controlled with a radio remote control. This means the operator can stand well clear of the load being transported. The power supply is provided by an internal conductor rail or flat cable system.
Powered Feed Systems
INTERNAL CONDUCTOR RAIL
The aluminium profiles 4/180 ICR and 5/220 ICR and steel profiles S200 ICR and S260 ICR can be equipped with an internal conductor rail to maximise the crane’s coverage. Inside the profile, the power supply is safe from external exposures, allowing full trolley and bridge movements without hanging cables.

FLAT CABLE POWER
All Ji cranes can be fitted with a high-quality flat cable power supply. This system includes plastic cable trolleys with plastic wheels running inside the profile, supporting the flat cable. To prevent the trolleys from restricting the working area, one side of the track can be extended to accommodate the accumulation of cable trolleys.
