Many loading and unloading points sit outside the plant, in a yard or right at the warehouse door, with no ceiling structure to hang equipment from. Calling a crane for every lift means waiting, and the cost adds up month after month. Equipment left outdoors must also withstand rain and sun year-round.

FullSharp installed a 500 kg rated rail jib crane right at the outdoor loading point. The column stands on a foundation, and the rotating arm covers the required work area. The structure and corrosion-resistant paint are selected for outdoor conditions, so the equipment lasts long with minimal maintenance.

500 kg Jib Crane with Outdoor Rail Installation

500 kg rated rail jib crane installed outdoors at a loading and unloading area.

Equipment Installed

  • Column and crane foundation: a steel column anchored to a concrete foundation, withstanding both the lifting load and wind load in an open area.
  • Rotating arm with 500 kg rated rail: a rail beam mounted on the arm, with a trolley running the full reach to cover the loading area.
  • Corrosion-resistant paint: a coating system chosen for outdoor exposure, limiting rust as the beam faces rain and sun.
  • Rotating joint and limit stops: the arm rotates easily by hand, with stops limiting the swing angle to avoid hitting surrounding objects.

Benefits for Your Facility

Loading and unloading on demand

With fixed equipment at the receiving point, there's no need to wait for a crane every trip.

Built for rain and sun

The structure and paint system are chosen for outdoor conditions, reducing rust and maintenance costs.

Covers the right work area

The jib's reach is calculated from the truck position and drop-off point, so loads land exactly where needed.

Suitable Applications

  • Outdoor staging and loading yards
  • Warehouse doors receiving truck deliveries
  • Outdoor material storage areas
  • Pump stations and outdoor equipment areas needing maintenance
