Push-button controls force the operator to count each up-and-down step, which takes a long time when placing a load into a tight spot. For irregularly shaped loads, a standard hook tends to slip, requiring an extra person to help hold it steady.

FullSharp installs a pneumatic jib crane controlled by a force-sensing handle, a device that reads the operator's hand force and moves in that exact direction. The lifting hook is custom-made for the workshop's specific goods so it grips securely, letting one person complete the whole cycle.

Pneumatic Jib Crane with Force-Sensing Handle and Lifting Hook

A pneumatic jib crane with a force-sensing handle and dedicated lifting hook at the plant.

Equipment Installed

  • Pneumatic jib arm: lifts and lowers with air, swinging around the column to cover the work area around the operator's position.
  • Force-sensing handle: measures the push or pull force from the operator and moves in that direction, with no need to press buttons step by step.
  • Dedicated lifting hook: custom-made to match the shape of the workshop's goods, gripping securely and releasing quickly when set down.
  • Load-holding safety valve: keeps the load at its current height if air pressure suddenly drops.

Benefits for Your Plant

Intuitive control

The operator handles the load as if holding it directly by hand, with no need to learn button sequences.

Precise placement

The unit follows the operator's hand force, so positioning into a tight spot stays smooth and decisive.

Single-operator use

The custom hook keeps the load stable, removing the need for an extra person to help support it.
