5 Ton Jib Crane Project: Customizing Mobile Jib Crane for Russian Clients

Jib cranes play a crucial role in various industries. These versatile machines are used for lifting and moving heavy loads in a controlled manner. With their ability to rotate and extend horizontally, jib cranes provide an efficient solution for material handling tasks. This article focuses on a specific project where a 5-ton jib crane was customized to meet the requirements of Russian clients. The aim was to design a mobile jib crane that could operate in diverse conditions while ensuring safety and efficiency.

5 Ton Mobile Jib Crane Project Overview

The project involved designing and manufacturing a 5-ton mobile jib crane (also called portable jib crane) that could be easily transported and assembled at different sites in Russia. The crane needed to have a high lifting capacity, a wide working radius, and the ability to withstand harsh weather conditions. Additionally, it was essential to incorporate safety features and ensure compliance with Russian regulations.

Jib Crane 5 ton Design and Engineering 

The design process began with a thorough analysis of the client's requirements and site conditions. Our team of engineers worked closely with the client to understand their specific needs and tailor the jib crane accordingly. Factors such as lifting height, working radius, and load capacity were carefully considered during the design phase.

To meet the mobility requirement, the jib crane was designed with a wheeled base, allowing it to be easily transported to different locations. The crane's structure was made from high-strength steel to ensure durability and stability. Special attention was given to the welding techniques and material selection to ensure the crane's ability to withstand heavy loads and harsh weather conditions. It is worth mentioning that the cantilever is equipped with a 5-ton explosion-proof wire rope hoist.

What is explosion proof wire rope hoist?

An explosion-proof wire rope hoist is a specialized lifting device designed to operate safely in hazardous or explosive environments. The crane electric roof hoist consists of motor, transmission, brake, drive shaft, hoist housing, gear, wire rope, pulley, limiter, travel switch and other components.It is built with features that prevent the ignition of flammable substances, such as gases, dust, or vapors, which may be present in the surrounding atmosphere. These hoists are typically used in industries such as oil and gas, chemical plants, refineries, and mining, where there is a risk of explosive atmospheres.

Working rules of explosion proof hoist

When working, the motor drives the gears through the transmission to drive the wire rope up or down to lift and lower the goods. Brake and limiter can ensure the smooth lifting and lowering of goods, and can stop the machine in time when the goods are overloaded or fallen from height.

Safety Features

Safety is of paramount importance in any heavy machinery project. For this jib crane, several safety features were incorporated to protect both the operators and the surrounding environment. These features included:

1. Overload protection system: The crane was equipped with sensors that could detect excessive loads and automatically shut down the lifting operation to prevent accidents.
2. Emergency stop button: A prominent emergency stop button was installed within easy reach of the operator, allowing for immediate cessation of all crane movements in case of an emergency.
3. Anti-collision system: To prevent collisions with other objects or cranes on-site, an anti-collision system was integrated into the jib crane. This system utilized sensors and alarms to alert the operator when there was a risk of collision.
4. Weather protection: Given the challenging weather conditions in Russia, the jib crane was designed with weatherproof features such as corrosion-resistant coatings and protection against extreme temperatures.

5 Ton Portable Jib Crane Manufacturing and Testing for Safety

Once the design phase was completed, the manufacturing process began. Skilled technicians and engineers meticulously fabricated each component of the jib crane, adhering to strict quality control standards. The welding process was closely monitored to ensure structural integrity.

After manufacturing, the jib crane underwent rigorous testing to verify its performance and safety features. Load tests were conducted to confirm its lifting capacity, while functional tests were carried out to assess its overall operational efficiency. The crane was also subjected to simulated weather conditions to evaluate its durability under extreme circumstances.

Delivery and Installation 

Upon successful completion of manufacturing and testing, the jib crane was transported to the client's site in Russia. Our team of experienced technicians oversaw the installation process, ensuring that the crane was assembled correctly and met all safety requirements. Comprehensive training sessions were conducted for the operators to familiarize them with the crane's controls, safety features, and maintenance procedures.
