Marine JIB Crane

A marine jib crane is a specialized lifting solution designed for use in harsh maritime environments, including docks, ships, offshore platforms, and more. Built to withstand the challenges of saltwater and constant exposure to outdoor elements, this crane is engineered for exceptional durability, precision, and reliability. It offers smooth and controlled lifting, making it ideal for handling loads in tight, confined spaces on marine vessels and offshore structures.

Our marine jib cranes come with a variety of customizable options, including different lifting capacities, reach lengths, and hoisting mechanisms, to meet your specific operational needs. Whether you’re handling cargo at port or lifting heavy equipment on offshore platforms, these cranes offer efficient, low-maintenance operation with a high degree of safety and performance.

Main Components

  • Electric Chain Hoist: The primary lifting component that utilizes an electric motor to operate the chain for vertical lifting and lowering.

  • Load Chain: A high-strength alloy chain designed for smooth, controlled lifting and lowering of loads.

  • Trolley: The carriage that supports the hoist, traveling horizontally along the crane’s girder. Available in both single and double girder configurations.

  • Girder: The horizontal structural beam that supports the hoist and trolley, available in either a profile or box girder design.

  • Hooks: Forged steel hooks that adhere to industrial safety standards, ensuring secure load lifting.

  • Control System: Includes a pendant control system (festoon system), with an optional wireless remote control for flexible operation.

  • Travel Motor & Drive: Provides smooth, precise horizontal movement with stepless motion control for accurate load positioning.

  • Power Supply System: A drag chain or flat cable system ensures reliable and stable energy supply to the hoist for uninterrupted operation.
