Mobile Cantilever Crane
Introduction
A mobile cantilever crane, also known as a portable jib crane, is a light-duty lifting device equipped with a wheeled base for flexible relocation. It requires no fixed foundation and is widely used for frequent light-load material handling across multiple workstations.
1. Main Structure
- Mobile Base: Heavy-duty steel base fitted with casters and brakes. Available in manual push, electric and battery-powered types.
- Vertical Mast: Main support column for the jib and slewing mechanism.
- Cantilever Jib: Horizontal boom mounted with a hoist, capable of 180° to 360° slewing.
- Counterweight: Installed on the base to prevent overturning during operation.
- Lifting Hoist: Electric chain hoist or wire rope hoist for material lifting and horizontal movement.
2. Common Technical Parameters
- Rated Load: 80 kg to 3 tons (custom models up to 5 tons)
- Jib Length / Radius: 1.5 m to 6 m
- Slewing Angle: Standard 270°, optional 360°
- Lifting Height: Standard 3 m, customizable up to 10 m
- Drive Mode: Manual / electric slewing; manual / electric travelling
3. Advantages
- High Flexibility: Can be easily moved to different working areas when unloaded.
- Easy Installation: No foundation or anchor bolts needed, ready for immediate use.
- Space-saving: Compact structure, suitable for workshops with limited space.
- Cost-effective: Low purchase and maintenance costs compared with overhead cranes and gantry cranes.
4. Typical Applications
- Workshop: Loading/unloading workpieces, equipment assembly and mold replacement.
- Warehouse & Logistics: Short-distance lifting and shelf replenishment.
- Construction Sites: Installation of small equipment and handling of pipes & profiles.
- Auto Maintenance: Disassembly and assembly of engines, gearboxes and other heavy parts.
5. Comparison with Fixed Cantilever Crane
表格
| Items | Mobile Cantilever Crane | Fixed Cantilever Crane |
|---|---|---|
| Installation | No fixing required, movable | Fixed with anchor bolts |
| Load Capacity | 0.1 – 3 tons | 0.5 – 5 tons |
| Mobility | Excellent, shared by multiple stations | Limited to fixed working area |
| Application | Temporary & changeable workstations | Permanent fixed workstations |
6. Safety Regulations
- Do not move the crane while lifting loads; only relocate it when unloaded.
- Lock the caster brakes before operation and use on firm, level ground.
- Never overload the crane. Regularly inspect counterweights, welds, hoists and ropes.
