FullSharp · since 1991

FullSharp installed a ceiling-mounted articulating jib crane with a dedicated carton box lifting tool in a packing warehouse where boxes move between conveyor, taping table and pallet all shift. The structure sits on the ceiling so forklifts and walkways stay clear, and the folding joints carry each box from station to station in a single push.

In a packing warehouse, carton boxes move constantly between the conveyor, the taping table, and the pallet all shift long. Carrying them by hand dents the boxes and strains backs, while adding a standing column in the middle of the warehouse gets in the way of forklifts and walkways.

Equipment Installed

Ceiling-mounted frame: fixed to the roof purlins, bearing the load of both the jib arm and the tool without needing a floor-mounted column.
Multi-directional rotating joints: the folding arm routes loads around the conveyor and workstations instead of just sweeping around one center point.
Carton box lifting tool: clamps the box firmly on both sides, lifting without denting the sides or popping the flaps open.
Control handle: lift and lower controls sit right on the tool, letting the operator hold the box and control the movement at the same time.
Powder-coated steel: a clean, corrosion-resistant surface suited to consumer goods packing areas.

Benefits for Your Facility

Clear Floor Space

Everything hangs from the ceiling, so forklifts and carts still move freely underneath.

No Box Denting

The clamping tool distributes force evenly on both sides, keeping the box shape intact and its contents in place.

Faster Packing

One push moves the box the whole distance from the conveyor to the pallet, cutting out extra walking steps.

Frequently asked questions

How can cartons be moved without blocking forklift lanes?

A ceiling-mounted jib keeps everything overhead, so the floor stays open for forklifts and carts while boxes are moved above.

Can one arm serve the conveyor, taping table and pallet?

Yes. The folding joints let the box go to the taping table and then swing over to the pallet without moving the equipment.

Does the tool work with different box sizes?

The tool head is made for the customer's cartons. If sizes vary a lot, FullSharp sets the tool range or suggests swappable heads.

FullSharp checks that the ceiling purlins can bear the suspended load, measures the radius needed to cover the conveyor and pallet, and weighs an actual sample box. We then select the arm length and clamp type to match your box size. Schedule a site survey with FullSharp.
