100Kg Articulating Jib Crane Design
An articulated jib crane has two arms connected by a flexible joint and as such each arm will have it's own radius. The knuckle joint design allows the jib boom to fold back on itself and even service behind the support column or around corners, reach into or under machinery and containers, and service virtually any point between the pivot anchor and the far reach of the swiveling arm.
Available in wall mounted, column mounted, base plate floor mounted or ceiling mounted where the work area is a premium. Articulating jibs cranes can rotate up to 360° on the primary boom and 300° on the secondary boom through pivot joints. Capacities range from 50 to 500kg with spans of up to 6m.
The 50kg articulating jib crane has low headroom, simple structure and enables tools, vacuum tube lifters, pneumatic balancers and intelligent lifting hoists to be suspended and give infinite and effortless coverage around obstructions or over workstations. Articulated fold arm jib cranes increase productivity, reduce injuries, and improve safety. The ease of rotation from the boom, with the low force required for movement, allow for fast and precise load positioning.
An ideal, ergonomic lifting aid for machine operators, our 500 pounds articulated arm jib cranes are combined with rope balancers or intelligent smart force lifter(with floating mode) and can be anchored to pillars, columns, and ceilings. These allow operators to maneuver the load supporting arm easily and over a large radius.
Depending on payload weight, operators can choose their ideal lifting solution from our wide range of articulated arm models, which are designed to help achieve the optimum ratio between payloads and moving mass.

Different Types of Articulated Jib Cranes
Light weight articulating jib cranes and articulated boom lift jib cranes provide flexible lifting capabilities for a wide range of applications. They feature a pivoting point along the jib arm, enabling it to easily move and position loads around corners, through doorways, or in tight spaces.
Free Standing Articulating Jib Crane/Floor Mounted Articulating Jib Crane
The Free Standing Articulated Jib Crane is entirely independent from the building, and is securely anchored to the floor(mount easily to your factory’s reinforced concrete floor via a base plate and anchor bolts.). Under a certain circumstance, special foundations may be required; This floor mounted articulated crane has a standard lifting capacities are from 50kg up to 2000 lbs. and radius/spans from 10ft. up to 16 ft. It can be used with hook mounted lifting devices (electric, air, or vacuum). This crane offers 360 degree rotation at each pivot point and a consistent responsiveness when positioning loads in a work cell, through open doorways, or into machines. Foundationless options are available, which is known as foundationless floor mounted articulating jib crane
Wall Mounted Articulating Jib Crane
The Wall Mounted Articulating Jib Crane can be mounted to a wall column or post and provides a lifting capacity of 50kg to 1000kg, with a span from 2 to 5 meters according to the load. It is perfect for applications that require maneuvering under obstructions or around obstacles and there is an adequate wall/column to support the crane.
Roof/Ceiling Mounted Articulating Jib Crane
Roof/ceiling mounted articulated jib cranes attach easily to your factory’s support structure or a specially designed workstation bridge crane system, by which multiple work cells can be covered. It has a lifting capacity of 500kg to 1,000kg and a span from 2 to 5 meters. The Ceiling Mounted Articulating Jib Crane can be stationary mounted or platform supported from a workstation dual girder bridge crane, which enables usage outside the normal coverage of a bridge crane or the jib to swing under obstructions.
Mobile Articulated Jib Crane with Portable Base
With a portable, counterweight base, our mobile articulated jib crane can be used in different parts of your work station or workshop. It is a light-weight and easy-to-use crane that can be moved around with a forklift, portable base or wheeled base. The portable articulated jib crane travels by means of a mobile platform with wheels instead of a floor-mounted pillar. This movable crane can be combined with our different customised grippers or tools. The main benefit is portability which enables the portable articulated jib crane to be used anywhere without permanent installation.
Being an industrial articulated jib crane China supplier and manufacturer, we offer a wide range of articulating pivot arm jib cranes and other jib crane for your options. Our team of industry experts are ready to guide you through the available options so that you can buy the articulated jib crane for your unique requirements.

Articulating Jib Crane Accessories, Components, Spare Parts and Jib Crane Structure
The 500kg light and compact articulating jib cranes with folding arm provide maximum material handling flexibility in a manufacturing facility and workshop. They include two rotating arms that enable the system to lift loads around obstacles. 500kg articulated jib cranes provide easy rotation and precision load placement when placing loads in tight areas. As an ergonomic lifting solution, these cranes can even reach around corners and under other equipment.
Articulating Jib Crane With Electric Chain Hoist
Electric power supply is added in order to operate the YUANDA electric hoist. The hoist can be operated via a push button panel hanging from the hoist unit. If you would like a jib crane without the articulation then try the standard manually rotated jib or the standard motorised arm swing jib. Hoist brand available: Our own brand YUANDA or international top brand such as: Demag, Abus, Kito, KONE, YALE, PLANET, Gorbel, etc.
Articulated Jib Crane With Smart Hoist - Zero-Gravity Smart Lifting Device
The articulated jib crane with smart hoist is a smart lifting solution with easy arm rotation and precise load placement. It combines a custom articulating jib crane that is integrated with the YUANDA Zero Force intelligent servo motor hoist(with float mode). The intelligent zero gravity smart hoist is the ideal solution if you're looking for a turn-key lifting device that provides fast and precise load placement.
Easy Control Intelligent Lifting Arm features strength, precision, and variable speed of the advanced lifting technology and processor controlled electric servo motor drive system in the hoist lifter of an ergonomic articulating jib crane. Most importantly, there is Zero-Gravity Float Mode of the intelligent lifter, which allows operators to precisely orient and manipulate loads by using their hands. This Industrial Intelligent Lift Assist Devices makes the unit truly a zero-gravity lifter.
Articulated Jib Crane With Vacuum Lifter
Great for vacuum lifting applications or lighter-capacity applications where an articulated vacuum arm would be beneficial. For vacuum lifting, the pivot arm articulated jib crane features vacuum-sealed arms to reduce hose festooning. It is capable of 360° non-continuous coverage around the mast/pole/pillar/post, with the secondary arm covering 300°. Compatible with vacuum tube lifters. Additional hose, clamps, and mounting hardware are available for this vacuum handling systems.
Application of Articulated Jib Crane
Freestanding Articulating Jib Cranes can help to position loads in hard to reach places. They are perfect for reaching into a machine, work cells, or manipulating around columns, corners, obstructions and doorways, and in and out of narrow passage ways. With 360 articulation, they have a large coverage area from the boom mast out to the tip of the outer arm. They are a perfect compliment to electric hoist, manual hoist, air pneumatic hoist, manipulator, air balancer and vacuum lifter. Self-supporting 360 degree rotating articulated jib crane is ideal for high cycle pick and place with rapid change in direction for loading/unloading machined parts, pallets, or skids, which can be used for many industrial applications such as: machine loading, lifting, transferring, stacking, packing, holding parts for inspection, assembly, maintenance, and handling cartons, woven concrete bags, cement bags, sheets, barrels, drums, plates, panels, etc.
