Floor-mounted jib cranes provide coverage around a dedicated mounting position. Review foundation/support requirements before treating a proposed column location as usable.
Define the configuration
Selection item | What to provide |
|---|---|
Foundation/site | Floor and ground information, service constraints and approved mounting design. |
Working radius | Pickup and placement map with obstruction and slewing limits. |
Hook height | Required working height after the hoist, tool and load are included. |
Station scope | Structure, lifting unit, gripping tool, utilities and installation responsibilities. |
Check the installation boundary
A freestanding format still requires an appropriate support/foundation arrangement. Do not use a generic slab thickness or anchor size from another crane.
Move from a layout to equipment
Prepare a workstation drawing and the required load/movement information. Review the actual model specifications and identify included hoist, controls and attachments before requesting the final installation and quotation scope.

Further questions for your purchasing review
What affects the installed cost of a floor-mounted jib?
Capacity, span, height, slewing or travel, lifting equipment, structural work and installation affect the total cost.
Draw the usable floor-mounted jib working area
A floor-mounted jib creates a local working area around a column. Place the column from the load path and operator access before resolving its foundation and fixing design.
Layout item | What to mark |
|---|---|
Column position | Distance to pickup/placement points and any vehicle aisles. |
Foundation interface | Floor/ground drawings and underground service constraints. |
Vertical envelope | Required hook height including the hoist, tool and workpiece. |
Slewing area | Working and parked positions, adjacent machines and travel limits. |
Documented equipment route
ET-CR-POST-500 — Jib Crane Column & 3 m Arm
Model / configuration | Rated load | Jib length | Scope of supply |
|---|---|---|---|
500 kg | 3 m | Column and jib; lifter excluded |
ET-CR-CYL-500 — Pneumatic Cylinder & Vacuum Pad Frame Assembly — The 500 kg pneumatic cylinder/pad-frame assembly excludes the column. Specify the compatible complete assembly, rather than treating these separate records as a universal kit.

Lifting equipment | Device, trolley/connection, tool and full suspended mass. |
Utilities | Electrical/air arrangement and moving supply path. |
Site work | Installation, access, commissioning and required records. |
Check all pickup and placement positions with the proposed arrangement before acceptance. Do not use another crane’s foundation, anchor dimensions or load chart for this installation.
