Pillar Jib crane is a kind of light duty equipment in crane industry, the main parts are composed of hoist mechanism, swing arm, end beam and driven unit, it is convenient in installation and operation. Jib crane is aimed to lift and move materials in warehouse/workshop and assemble production line. Selecting the right type of crane for your business is critical to maximizing efficiency, streamlining workflow, and getting the best bang for your buck. welcome to contact us and customize jib crane.

How to Choose a Pillar Jib Crane?

 1. Model selection

When you choose a model, you should choose according to the use environment. If the lifting capacity is large and the working range is small, you can choose a fixed-column cantilever crane; if the tonnage is small and the work area is not fixed, you can choose a mobile jib crane; if you do not have the conditions to install columns, you can choose a wall-type cantilever crane; On the side close to the wall and relatively long, you can choose a wall-mounted jib crane.

2. Model selection

Because the greater the maximum lifting capacity of the cantilever crane, the more difficult it is to give full play to its various performances in the hoisting project, and the lower the utilization rate is, therefore, as long as the hoisting technical requirements can be met, it is not necessary to choose an oversized model. Moreover, the greater the weight and height of the equipment ordered, the higher the cost.

3. Selection of economic performance of jib crane

The principle of selecting the comprehensive economic performance standard of the cantilever crane is to make the unit price of materials or components the lowest in transportation, hoisting and loading and unloading, so the lifting capacity (or the productivity specified in the lease contract) and the cost of the shift (or the specified rate specified in the lease contract) can be used. cost) to calculate the material transportation unit price, and then select the lowest one. In addition, products with less energy consumption and more functions should be considered comprehensively to reduce labor intensity.

 The main reasons that affect the price of jib cranes are as follows:

1. Steel price

This is the main factor. The steel determines the self-weight of the cantilever crane, and its price directly determines the price of the final formed equipment. The tonnage of fixed-column jib cranes varies, which will naturally form a relatively large gap. Therefore, fluctuations in steel prices will naturally lead to changes in quotations, which is also easy to understand.

2. Transportation costs

Due to the increase in transportation distance and oil price, the transportation cost of fixed-column jib cranes will increase, which will indirectly stimulate the price of column-type jib cranes to rise.

3. Labor costs

Regardless of whether it is production, installation, or design personnel, these labor costs will increase every year, which will inevitably lead to an increase in the final contract price of the column crane.

4. Accessories factors

Some accessories will also increase in price, such as electric hoist, wheels, etc. The accessories become more and more solid, and after the performance is improved, the price will inevitably increase, and these will also be counted in the final cost price.
