FullSharp builds a jib crane with an H-beam arm and a 500 kg electric hoist for a machining station that lifts parts of several hundred kilograms many times a day. The rigid section barely flexes with the load at the arm tip, so lifts stay steady, welds are not stressed over time and workers can trust the equipment.

A machining station needs to lift parts weighing several hundred kilograms many times a day. A slender beam would flex and vibrate with every lift, and over time the welds degrade until workers no longer trust the equipment.

FullSharp builds a jib crane using an H-beam for a rigid structure with minimal deflection when the load hangs at the end of the arm. It carries an electric hoist operated by pushbutton, rated at 500 kg.

H-Beam Jib Crane with Electric Hoist

A jib crane with an H-beam carrying an electric hoist, installed at a workstation.

Equipment Installed

  • H-beam: a rigid, powder-coated steel section that keeps deflection small even with the load at the end of the arm.
  • Post swivel joint: rotates smoothly across the working radius, with an angle stop if it borders a nearby machine.
  • 500 kg electric hoist: lifts and lowers by pushbutton, with a load brake and travel limit switches.
  • Post base and base plate: anchored with expansion bolts into concrete floor of verified thickness.

Key Specifications

  • Load capacity500 kg

Benefits for Your Facility

Rigid structure

The H-beam deflects very little, so the load doesn't bounce and operations stay precise.

Built for high frequency

Withstands continuous lift cycles without degrading quickly.

Simple maintenance

Just check the swivel joint, base bolts, and hoist brake on a regular schedule.

Frequently asked questions

Why use an H-beam on a jib crane?

A slender beam flexes and vibrates with each lift, and welds suffer over time. A rigid H-beam keeps deflection small even with the load at the end of the arm.

What safety features does the hoist have?

The 500 kg electric hoist has a load brake and travel limit switches. The post swivel can have an angle stop if it borders a nearby machine.

What floor is needed for a post jib crane?

The base plate is anchored with expansion bolts into concrete of verified thickness. FullSharp checks the floor before installation.

Consultation for Your Facility

FullSharp checks your concrete floor thickness, heaviest load, and required working radius at the station. We recalculate the H-beam section, install the post, and test-run the load before handover.
