FullSharp paired an articulating jib crane on a mobile base with Lifts All lifting equipment so staff can move carton boxes wherever a batch is gathered. The lifting head holds each box securely and sets it down gently, and when the batch is finished the unit rolls to the next area instead of sitting idle at a fixed station.

Carton boxes move in batches, gathered in one area today and another tomorrow. A fixed lifting setup sits idle much of the time, while having workers carry a whole batch by hand is slow and hard on the back and shoulders.

FullSharp paired an articulating jib crane on a mobile base with Lifts All lifting equipment. The articulating arm reaches every spot within its working radius, and the lifting head holds boxes securely while lowering them gently. When the batch is done, the whole unit rolls to the next area.

Articulating Jib Crane on a Mobile Base with Lifts All for Carton Boxes

An articulating jib crane on a mobile base with Lifts All equipment lifting a carton box.

Equipment Installed

  • Articulating jib crane: multiple joints give a flexible reach, fitting between stacks of goods.
  • Lifts All lifting equipment: a lifting head built for carton boxes, holding them securely and lowering smoothly.
  • Mobile base: a steel base with wheels and outriggers, letting the whole unit roll to another area without drilling into the floor.
  • Control handle: raises and lowers right from the handle, so one hand steadies the load while the other operates it.

Benefits for the Factory

Follows the batch

Roll the equipment to wherever the batch is, instead of installing it at multiple fixed points.

Boxes keep their shape

The lifting head grips evenly, so carton boxes don't get squeezed out of shape while being moved.

No structural changes

No ceiling drilling, no foundation work, so it also works in a rented warehouse.

Frequently asked questions

Why choose a mobile jib crane for carton handling?

When boxes are collected in different areas from day to day, a fixed lift sits idle much of the time. A mobile base with wheels and outriggers lets one unit follow the batch without drilling into the floor.

Does the lifting head deform carton boxes?

The Lifts All head grips evenly and lowers smoothly, so boxes keep their shape. FullSharp checks carton size and weight before choosing the head that suits the goods.

How is the lift controlled?

Raise and lower controls sit on the handle, so one hand steadies the box while the other operates it. The articulating arm reaches between stacks within its working radius.

Consultation for Your Factory

FullSharp reviews your box size and weight, the working radius needed, and the floor condition where the base will move. From there we select the right articulating arm configuration and lifting head. Call FullSharp to schedule a site survey at your warehouse.
