Weiyuan Wall-Mounted Travelling Jib Crane
Product Overview
The Weiyuan Wall-Mounted Travelling Jib Crane represents a uniquely versatile and efficient lifting solution, designed to service long, narrow workspaces. Unlike a standard fixed jib crane, this model travels horizontally along a wall-mounted runway track, providing extensive coverage without obstructing the floor. The jib arm also slews to provide precise positioning within its reach. This combination of linear travel and rotational slewing makes it an incredibly effective tool for serving multiple workstations, long assembly lines, and warehouse aisles. With customizable capacity up to 5 tons, it is the ultimate space-saving crane for maximizing reach and productivity.
Product Advantages
Extended Work Area Coverage
This crane’s primary advantage is its ability to travel. By moving along a runway, it provides hook coverage over a vast rectangular area, far exceeding the reach of a traditional fixed jib crane. This makes it perfect for servicing long production lines or entire sections of a workshop.
Completely Unobstructed Floor Space
Because the entire system is mounted on the wall or existing building columns, it leaves your valuable floor space completely free. This allows for the unobstructed movement of forklifts, carts, and personnel, leading to a safer and more organized work environment.
High Efficiency for Linear Workflows
The travelling jib is purpose-built for applications that require lifting at multiple points along a line. It eliminates the need for multiple fixed cranes or the delays associated with waiting for a large overhead crane, drastically improving the speed and efficiency of your workflow.
Custom-Engineered for Your Facility
We design the entire system—crane and runway—to meet your exact needs. We customize the lifting capacity (up to 5 tons), arm length, slewing angle, and, most importantly, the runway travel length to create a seamless, fully integrated material handling solution for your building.
Robust and Reliable Design
Built with high-strength steel and precision-engineered components, the Weiyuan travelling jib crane is made for durable, long-term performance. The smooth-running end carriages and reliable electric hoist ensure consistent and safe operation, day in and day out.
Application Scenarios
- Long Assembly Lines: Perfectly suited for moving components from one station to the next along an extended assembly or fabrication line.
- Warehousing and Storage: Ideal for picking and placing items along long aisles of racking, providing an alternative to forklifts in narrow spaces.
- Machining Centers: Services a series of machine tools arranged in a row, allowing a single crane to handle loading and unloading for multiple machines.
- Loading and Unloading Bays: Can travel along the length of a loading dock to service several truck bays simultaneously, improving shipping and receiving efficiency.

FAQ
Q: What is the main difference between a travelling jib crane and a fixed jib crane?
A: A fixed jib crane rotates around a single point. A travelling jib crane moves linearly along a track, providing lifting coverage over a much larger rectangular area, in addition to the arm’s rotation. It’s like having a jib crane that you can move anywhere along a wall.
Q: What kind of structural support is needed for the runway?
A: The runway track must be attached to a series of strong, reinforced concrete columns or a sufficiently robust steel building structure. The support columns must be able to handle the dynamic loads of the moving crane. We provide all necessary load calculations for your structural engineer to verify.
Q: Can this crane be installed in any building?
A: Installation is dependent on having an adequate support structure along the desired path of travel. It is ideal for modern industrial buildings with strong steel or concrete columns. We work with you to assess your facility’s suitability during the design phase.
Q: Is the travel along the runway motorized?
A: Yes, the long travel (movement along the runway) is typically motorized and controlled via the remote control for smooth and effortless positioning over long distances. The slewing (rotation) of the arm can be either manual or motorized, depending on the application.
Q: How do I get a quote for a 5-ton wall-travelling jib crane?
A: To provide an accurate quote, please provide us with: 1) 5-ton capacity, 2) The desired arm length (span), 3) The lifting height needed, and 4) The total length of the runway (travel distance) you require. We will then design a complete system to meet your needs.
