Bulky Goods Lifting with a 4 m Jib and KITO Hoist

FullSharp installed a jib crane with an arm longer than 4 meters carrying a KITO electric hoist, for a large workshop where a short jib only served one machine. The wide radius picks bulky goods at one end and sets them at the other in one swing, and the column is engineered for the long arm's moment so rotation stays safe under load.

In a large workshop, a jib crane with a short reach can only serve a single machine. Bulky goods that need to travel farther have to be lowered, moved on a cart, and lifted again, adding an extra step every time.

FullSharp installs a jib crane with an arm longer than 4 meters carrying a KITO electric hoist. The wide lifting radius lets goods be picked up at one end and placed at the other in the same swing. The support column is engineered for the moment load of the long arm, keeping rotation safe even under load.

Jib Crane with KITO Electric Hoist and 4+ Meter Arm

Equipment installed

Arm longer than 4 meters: extends the working radius, covering multiple positions from a single column.
KITO electric hoist: lifts and lowers precisely, running reliably under continuous shift work.
Support column: engineered for the moment load of the long arm, firmly anchored to the foundation.
Control box: simple lift and lower buttons that workers can master from day one.

Benefits for the workshop

Wide area coverage

One column serves multiple machines, saving on additional lifting points.

One fewer handling step

Goods are picked up and placed in the same rotation, without lowering and lifting again.

Hoist built to last

The KITO hoist withstands high lifting frequency, keeping annual maintenance costs low.

Frequently asked questions

How long can a jib crane arm be?

Arms over 4 meters are possible when the column and foundation are designed for the moment load. FullSharp calculates the column for the real arm length and load.

What is the benefit of a long reach jib?

Goods can be picked up and set down within one swing, so there is no lowering onto a cart and lifting again. One crane covers a much wider area of the workshop.

Is a long arm jib crane safe?

Yes, when the column is engineered for the long arm's moment. That keeps rotation smooth and safe even under load. FullSharp checks the floor slab before installing.

Consultation for your workshop

FullSharp surveys the foundation, ceiling height, and distance between lifting points. Our engineers finalize the arm length and hoist capacity accordingly. FullSharp then builds the foundation, installs the column, and load-tests it before handover.
