FullSharp hung a pneumatic jib crane on a 5T rail rated for 200 kg and fitted a gripper that holds plastic component trays by their sides, for trays moving between conveyor, inspection table and racks. The tray stays level the whole way, so parts inside do not shift or fall, and the arm turns 360 degrees to reach each station.

Plastic trays holding components are stacked and moved continuously between the conveyor, inspection table, and storage racks. A full tray is heavy, and carrying it by hand can easily tilt it, shifting or dropping the components inside.

FullSharp suspends a pneumatic jib crane from the beam, running it on a 5T rail rated for 200 kg, and fits it with a gripper tool that hugs the tray sides. The tray stays level throughout the move, and the operator rotates the arm 360 degrees to bring it to the right station before releasing the grip.

Installed Equipment

  • 5T rail rated for 200 kg: suspended from the plant beam, with the trolley gliding smoothly along the working line.
  • Pneumatic jib arm: rotates 360 degrees and carries the tray's weight, leaving the operator only to guide it.
  • Plastic tray gripper tool: jaws hug the tray sides tightly, keeping the tray level without pressing on the components.
  • Grip-holding safety valve: if air pressure is lost, the jaws still hold the tray so nothing falls.

Key Specifications

  • Rail load capacity200 kg
  • RailModel 5T
  • Rotation angle360 degrees
  • End toolPlastic tray gripper

Benefits for Your Plant

Tray always level

The tool grips both tray sides evenly so the tray never tilts. Components inside don't shift.

Fast tray transfer

Gripping and releasing run on compressed air, with no need to re-stack items on the tray. Line rhythm stays steady.

No floor space used

The rail hangs from the existing beam. Aisles and rack areas below stay clear.

Frequently asked questions

How do you move full component trays without tipping them?

Use a gripper that holds the tray sides and keeps it level. The tray in this project is lifted and moved on a jib crane, so it stays flat while the operator guides it to the next station.

What load does this tray handling system carry?

The 5T rail is rated for 200 kg and the jib arm carries the tray weight, leaving the operator only to guide it. FullSharp sizes the gripper to the real tray dimensions.

Which factories use a tray gripper jib crane?

Electronics and component assembly plants, quality inspection lines and tray or plastic container storage areas, where full trays are moved many times per shift.

Installation Consulting for Your Plant

FullSharp visits the plant to measure tray dimensions, tray weight when full, and the travel path between stations. We design the gripper jaws to match the exact tray profile and choose the right rail length and suspension points. Call FullSharp to schedule a survey.
