Cambodian Customer's Requirements for Jib Crane

The client's company is a well-known oil processing company in Cambodia. As the client company plans to expand its oil production capacity, it needs to seek more efficient operation solutions. After several rounds of discussion, the client company decided to purchase a new high-performance crane to enhance the loading and unloading efficiency and ensure the safety of the production process.

The main requirements of the client were:

a. Lifting capacity: at least 5 tons to meet the loading and unloading needs of heavy equipment.
b. Safety: Safe operation in potentially flammable and explosive environments.
c. Efficiency: the ability to load and unload quickly and position accurately to improve efficiency.

Explosion-proof Jib Crane Solutions

As a renowned company specializing in heavy duty cranes and customized solutions, we responded positively to the needs of our client company and provided them with a complete crane solution.

We designed a 5-ton explosion-proof jib crane with the following key features:

  1. Explosion-proof design: According to the working environment of Phnom Penh Energy Company in Cambodia, we have carried out a comprehensive explosion-proof treatment for the crane to ensure its safe operation in flammable and explosive places.
  2. Light weight and high efficiency: The use of high strength materials and advanced manufacturing process makes the crane's deadweight relatively light, which improves its working efficiency and loading and unloading capacity.
  3. Precise control: Equipped with advanced control system and accurate positioning equipment, the jib crane can be operated accurately in a small space, avoiding errors in the loading and unloading process.
  4. Reliability: We have selected electrical and mechanical components of world-famous brands to ensure the stability and reliability of the crane and reduce the failure rate and maintenance costs.

Transportation and Installation of 5 tons Crane to Cambodia

After many rounds of communication and negotiation, the customer decided to purchase the 5 tons explosion-proof jib crane designed by us. Once the contract was finalized, we started to organize the manufacturing, transportation and installation of the crane.

During the manufacturing process, we strictly follow international standards and technical specifications to ensure the quality and performance of the crane. Once the crane was manufactured, we carefully packed it and transported it to the client company's factory in Phnom Penh using a professional logistics company.

During the installation process, our team of engineers worked closely together to ensure that the crane functioned properly. We also provided the customer with detailed training to ensure that their staff could operate and maintain the crane correctly.

What Are the Advantages of Jib Cranes?

  • Flexibility: jib cranes can be operated flexibly in small spaces and are suitable for narrow workplaces.
  • Efficiency: The design of its lifting and slewing mechanism enables the jib crane to load and unload goods quickly, which improves work efficiency.
  • Safety: The design of jib cranes takes safety factors into consideration, making them more stable and safer in the loading and unloading process.
  • Load capacity: jib cranes are able to cope with different weights of goods and have a strong load capacity.


Is the Difference Between Explosion-proof Jib Cranes and Standard Jib Cranes only the Lifting Mechanism?

Not only the lifting mechanism, explosion-proof jib cranes and general jib cranes are different in many aspects. The following are the main differences:

  • Explosion-proof design: The most obvious difference is that explosion-proof jib cranes have been specially designed and treated for explosion-proof, making them suitable for flammable and explosive working environments. Its key components and electrical systems are made of explosion-proof materials and devices to reduce the risk of explosion in hazardous environments.
  • Electrical system: Explosion-proof jib cranes use an explosion-proof electrical system, which includes the use of explosion-proof housings on electrical components and the use of explosion-proof switches, buttons and connectors. This prevents electrical equipment from sparking or generating high temperatures, thus reducing the possibility of an explosion.
  • Mechanical components: explosion-proof jib cranes also have special treatment of mechanical components, such as the choice of lubricants to pay more attention to safety. Ensure that all mechanical components in the case of possible sparks or high temperature will not cause an explosion.
  • Certification standards: explosion-proof jib cranes need to comply with specific explosion-proof certification standards, such as the European Union's ATEX certification, the United States NEC (National Electrical Code) certification. These certifications ensure that the crane is designed and manufactured to meet explosion-proof requirements and is suitable for use in hazardous environments.
  • Safety: All designs and measures of explosion-proof jib cranes are aimed at ensuring their safety when operating in flammable and explosive locations. This makes it a reliable piece of equipment that reduces the risk of accidents and protects staff and equipment.

Will an Explosion-proof Jib Crane Be Much More Expensive Than a Standard Jib Crane?

Explosion-proof Jib Cranes are usually slightly more expensive than standard Jib Cranes of the same configuration. This is mainly due to the fact that explosion-proof jib cranes require special considerations in design, manufacturing and material selection to ensure their safety and reliability in flammable and explosive environments, which increases their production costs.
The following are the main factors that contribute to the higher price of explosion-proof jib cranes:

  1. Explosion-proof certifications and standards: To ensure that explosion-proof jib cranes comply with international explosion-proof standards and safety requirements, special certifications and tests are required. These certifications and standards may involve specialized equipment and testing, increasing production costs.
  2. Explosion-proof materials and devices: In the manufacturing process of explosion-proof jib cranes, special explosion-proof materials and devices need to be used to ensure that no sparks or high temperatures are generated when operating in potentially hazardous environments. These special materials and devices are often more expensive than ordinary materials.
  3. Highly demanding design and manufacture: The design and manufacture of explosion-proof jib cranes requires more rigor and expertise to meet explosion-proof standards. This may require the involvement of more engineers and technicians, increasing manufacturing costs.
  4. Limited production: Compared with ordinary jib cranes, explosion-proof jib cranes are less in demand, which leads to their smaller production scale and relatively higher cost of single unit production.

Despite the relatively high price of explosion-proof jib cranes, considering their safety and reliability in flammable and explosive environments, as well as avoiding huge losses caused by fires or explosions, it is still a very worthwhile decision to invest in explosion-proof jib cranes for some specific industries and places.

Why Custom a Crane Solution?

At Yuantai, we know that there is no "one size fits all" in the lifting field. Universal cranes are suitable for general factories, warehouses, etc. Besides, different applications have different needs for cranes. For example, steel industries often lift steel plates, so need electromagnetic cranes. Ports and docks often need to load ore, gravel, and other bulk goods, so need to grab bucket cranes. Chemical dangerous places often need to carry flammable and explosive materials, so need explosion proof cranes.

So, we provide customized cranes according to the special needs of our customers. Custom crane solutions offer many benefits in a variety of applications:

  • Improve efficiency: Cranes can use automatic controls, and special accessories to improve efficiency.
  • Break space constraints: In limited spaces, standard cranes may not fit due to their size. Custom cranes can be designed as compact or lightweight cranes.
  • Cost savings: Customized cranes can lead to long-term cost savings. Customized crane solutions ensure crane's performance is all necessary for your business.
