Steel pipes are round, smooth, and heavy, so sling tying takes a lot of time — and even then, a loose sling can let the pipe spin loose while lifting. In fabrication shops handling dozens of pipes per shift, tying and untying slings eats up most of the working time.

FullSharp installs a pneumatic jib crane with a clamping system dedicated to steel pipes. The clamp jaws wrap around the pipe diameter, gripping and releasing with compressed air, eliminating sling tying entirely, while the rotating arm moves the pipe from the storage rack to the machine or welding table.

Pneumatic Jib Crane with Clamping System for Lifting Steel Pipes

FullSharp pneumatic jib crane with a clamping system lifting a steel pipe in the workshop.

Installed Equipment

  • Pipe clamping system: clamp jaws wrap around the pipe diameter, gripping tight with compressed air and releasing quickly when set down.
  • Pneumatic rotating arm: swings around the column to connect the pipe storage rack with the work area, instead of dragging pipes across the floor.
  • Pneumatic lifting unit: holds the pipe suspended at the working height, staying in place even when released.
  • Control handle: clamp, release, lift, and lower buttons all within the operator's finger reach.

Benefits for Your Facility

No More Sling Tying

The pneumatic clamp holds the pipe the moment it grips, saving most of the handling time.

No Slipping or Spinning

The clamp jaws wrap tightly around the diameter, keeping the pipe steady throughout the move.

One-Person Operation

Clamping, lifting, rotating, and lowering are all controlled from a single handle.
