Portable Jib Crane for Sale – Mobile Jib Crane on Wheels (500kg to 2 Ton)

Our portable jib cranes are ideal for tasks that don't necessitate the use of a footing or epoxy bolts in the concrete floor or foundation. A portable jib crane is a lifting device for light loads that is commonly employed in modern industries such as machine manufacture, automobile manufacturing, and shipbuilding.

It can be utilized for both outdoor and indoor transportation, such as in garages, laboratories, and wharfs.

Portable Base Jib Cranes are an excellent complement to larger size or heavy duty overhead cranes, saving time and increasing productivity. The following key parts and components are found in most of our portable jib cranes: fork pockets, leveling feet, mast mounting hardware, crane control, and so on.

A portable jib crane is a compact lifting device designed for light-duty material handling where flexibility matters more than permanent installation. Instead of being fixed to a concrete foundation like a pillar jib crane, a portable jib crane is mounted on a movable base or wheels. It can be placed near a machine, moved to another workstation when the job changes, and used again without complicated setup.

In many workshops, lifting tasks happen in different locations during the day. One moment the crane is needed for loading a machining center. Later, it may be required for handling spare parts at a maintenance station. This is where a mobile jib crane on wheels becomes very practical. Operators simply position the crane where lifting is required, lock the wheels or leveling feet, and start the hoist.

Portable jib cranes are commonly paired with electric chain hoists or manual hoists, allowing operators to lift small components, tools, molds, and equipment safely. For factories that need simple lifting support without installing a large overhead crane system, this type of crane often becomes the easiest solution.

One of the main reasons buyers choose a portable jib crane is the installation simplicity. Unlike fixed cranes that require drilling anchor bolts into the concrete floor, portable models use a stable base structure.

This design makes them suitable for facilities where permanent installation is not allowed or practical.

Typical advantages include:

  • No drilling or modification of the workshop floor
  • No concrete foundation or anchor bolts required
  • Easy relocation between workstations
  • Minimal installation time
  • Suitable for temporary lifting tasks

Many portable cranes also include forklift pockets or wheels, allowing them to be repositioned quickly when the production layout changes.

Portable jib cranes are generally designed for light-duty lifting applications. The most common capacity range is between 250 kg and 2 tons, which covers the majority of workstation lifting tasks.

Common capacity options include:

  • 500 kg portable jib crane – frequently used for tool handling and small parts
  • 1 ton portable jib crane – suitable for general workshop lifting
  • 2 ton portable jib crane – used for heavier components or equipment

The actual lifting capacity depends on several factors:

  • Jib arm length
  • Structural design of the crane
  • Type of hoist used
  • Base stability and counterweight design

In practice, many factories select 500 kg or 1 ton portable jib cranes because these capacities provide enough lifting ability while keeping the structure lightweight and easy to move.

Portable Jib Crane Technical Specifications

Parameter Typical Range
Lifting Capacity 250 kg – 2 ton
Lifting Height 2 – 6 m
Arm Length 2 – 5 m
Rotation Angle 180° – 360°
Hoist Type Electric chain hoist / manual hoist
Working Duty A3

How these specifications influence crane selection:

  • Lifting Capacity: Determines what loads the crane can safely handle. Choose a crane slightly above your heaviest expected load for safety.
  • Lifting Height: Must match the height of your workstation or the maximum lift required.
  • Arm Length: Defines the reach of the crane; longer arms cover more workspace but require more floor space.
  • Rotation Angle: Affects flexibility; 360° rotation allows full coverage around the crane base.
  • Hoist Type: Electric hoists speed up frequent lifting, while manual hoists are economical for occasional use.
  • Working Duty (A3): Indicates light-duty operation, suitable for workshops, maintenance areas, and light production tasks.

Selecting the right combination of these parameters ensures safe, efficient, and practical lifting for your specific application.

Portable Jib Crane FAQ – Buying, Use, and Key Considerations

Learn the most frequently asked questions about portable jib cranes, including buying considerations, lifting capacity, applications, and safety tips. These FAQs help buyers understand how portable jib cranes work and how to choose the right mobile jib crane for their workshop or facility.

A: A portable jib crane is a movable lifting device designed for light loads that can be relocated without permanent floor anchoring.

Unlike fixed jib cranes that require anchor bolts or foundations, portable jib cranes typically use a wheeled or base-mounted design. This allows them to be easily moved to different workstations for flexible material handling.

A: No, portable jib cranes are designed to operate without permanent foundations or epoxy anchor bolts.

They use a stable base frame, leveling feet, or wheels to maintain balance during lifting. This makes them ideal for facilities where drilling into the concrete floor is not allowed or practical.

A: Most portable jib cranes are available in capacities ranging from 250 kg to 2 tons.

Common options include 500 kg, 1 ton, and 2 ton portable jib cranes, which are suitable for light-duty material handling tasks such as moving machine parts, tools, or small components.

A: Portable jib cranes are widely used in workshops, manufacturing plants, laboratories, garages, warehouses, and shipyards.

Their mobility allows them to serve multiple workstations, making them useful for machine manufacturing, automotive assembly, equipment maintenance, and small-scale material transport.

A: Yes, portable jib cranes can operate both indoors and outdoors depending on the design.

Many models are used in garages, workshops, docks, and wharfs. For outdoor use, it is important to consider surface conditions, weather protection, and wheel durability.

A: A typical portable jib crane includes the mast, jib arm, hoist, base frame or wheels, fork pockets, leveling feet, and control system.

These components allow the crane to lift loads while remaining stable and easily movable. Fork pockets are often included so forklifts can reposition the crane quickly.

A: Portable jib cranes commonly use electric chain hoists or manual chain hoists.

Electric chain hoists provide faster lifting and improved efficiency, while manual hoists are economical and suitable for occasional lifting tasks.
