However, some customers really do not want to make a foundation, so can this step be skipped?
Generally speaking, column-mounted jib cranes below 500kg can use chemical bolts instead of making a foundation, provided that the thickness of the existing concrete is not less than 20cm and the length of the jib crane arm does not exceed 4m. The installation of a column-mounted jib crane can also be assisted by nearby walls or columns, using angle steel welded firmly to increase its safety. For column-mounted jib cranes above 500kg, a foundation must be made, and laziness may bury unnecessary safety hazards!

What are the weight and height limitations of a foundation-less jib crane?

Typically, foundationless jib cranes have a maximum weight capacity of 500kg , and arm length no more than 4 meters. However, it is important to consult with the manufacturer or a qualified engineer to determine the specific weight and height limitations of the crane based on your specific application and requirements.

It is also important to note that foundationless jib cranes are typically designed for lighter loads and shorter heights compared to traditional jib cranes that require a concrete foundation. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure that the crane is used within its specified weight and height limitations to ensure safe and efficient operation.

Can a foundationless jib crane be relocated to a different location?

Yes, a foundationless jib crane can be relocated to a different location. Since it doesn't require a foundation, it can be easily dismantled and moved to a new location. However, it's important to ensure that the new location meets the necessary requirements for the crane's installation and use, such as adequate space, appropriate load-bearing capacity, and compliance with local regulations and safety standards. Additionally, it's recommended to have the crane reinstalled and tested by a qualified professional to ensure proper functioning and safety.

What types of industries commonly use foundationless jib cranes?

Foundationless jib cranes are commonly used in industries where the installation of a foundation is not feasible or desirable. Some examples of industries that commonly use foundationless jib cranes include:

• Automotive: Foundationless jib cranes are used in the automotive industry to move heavy parts and components during the manufacturing process.
• Construction: These cranes can be used on construction sites where a traditional foundation is not practical or possible.
• Mining: Foundationless jib cranes can be used in mining operations to move heavy equipment and materials.

Overall, any industry that requires the movement of heavy loads in a space where a traditional foundation is not an option can benefit from using a foundationless jib crane.

Selection your jib cranes

When sizing a jib crane, it is important to consider factors such as weight capacity, Height Under Boom (HUB), Overall Height, Working Span, and Boom Rotation. These factors will help determine the right size jib crane for your shop or project.

The size and thickness of the supporting concrete is also important when setting up a jib crane. We recommend using concrete that is at least 6 inches thick to safely support the jib crane and prevent tipping. Proper sizing of the jib crane is also crucial to ensure it can handle the weight of the load being lifted.
