Cantilever crane
Weiyuan 2-Ton Pillar Jib Crane with 360-Degree Rotation

Product Overview
The Weiyuan 2-Ton Pillar Jib Crane with 360-Degree Rotation is an elite, freestanding lifting system engineered for maximum coverage and efficiency in busy workshop environments. This robust crane features a heavy-duty fixed column that provides unwavering support for a cantilever swing arm, capable of a full 360-degree rotation. Paired with a powerful 2-ton electric hoist, this combination offers unparalleled flexibility for lifting and moving heavy loads across a wide circular area. It is the perfect solution for serving multiple workstations, loading machinery, and streamlining material flow without relying on building structures for support.
Product Advantages
- Complete 360-Degree Workspace Coverage: The full 360-degree rotating arm provides unrestricted access to the entire circular working area around the pillar, making it one of the most versatile lifting solutions for dynamic workshops and open-plan factories.
- Robust 2-Ton Lifting Power: Engineered to safely and efficiently handle loads up to 2 tons, this crane is ideal for a wide range of medium-duty tasks, including lifting machine parts, molds, dies, and fabricated assemblies.
- Freestanding and Structurally Independent: Because it is anchored to its own concrete foundation, this jib crane does not impose any structural load on your building’s columns or framework, allowing for flexible installation in almost any location.
- Optimized for High-Intensity Use: Built for durability, the crane features high-quality steel construction, a precision slewing mechanism, and a reliable electric hoist, making it suitable for frequent and repetitive lifting cycles.
- Enhanced Safety and Control: The crane can be equipped with either a pendant or wireless remote control, giving the operator precise command over lifting and slewing motions. Integrated safety features like limit switches and emergency stops are standard.
Application Scenarios
- Central Workshop Hub: Positioned centrally in a workshop, it can service multiple machines or workstations, transferring parts and materials efficiently from one process to the next.
- Fabrication and Welding Bays: Perfectly suited for lifting and rotating large workpieces, allowing for easy access from all sides during fabrication and welding tasks.
- Machinery Assembly and Maintenance: Ideal for assembling heavy equipment or lifting large components like engines and gearboxes into place for maintenance and repair.
- Loading and Unloading Zones: Can be installed in an open area to assist with loading and unloading heavy items from flatbed trucks or moving materials between indoor and outdoor storage.
- Manufacturing Plants: Streamlines production by moving sub-assemblies and finished products from the end of a production line to the packing or shipping area.

FAQ
1. What is the main advantage of a 360-degree jib crane?
The primary advantage is complete circular coverage. Unlike a wall-mounted crane with 180-degree rotation, a 360-degree pillar jib can access every point within its radius, making it far more versatile for serving multiple machines or a large, open work area.
2. Does this 2-ton jib crane require a special foundation?
Yes. A freestanding pillar jib crane of this capacity requires a significant, specially engineered reinforced concrete foundation. The size and depth of the foundation are critical for safety and will be specified by our engineers based on your crane’s final dimensions and soil conditions.
3. Can I choose between a wire rope hoist and a chain hoist?
Absolutely. We can equip the crane with either a CD/MD model electric wire rope hoist, which is great for faster speeds and longer lifts, or an electric chain hoist, which is more compact and often preferred for lower headroom applications.
4. Is the slewing (rotation) speed adjustable?
The standard model comes with a fixed slewing speed. However, we can equip the slewing motor with a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) to allow for adjustable speeds and soft-start/stop functionality, which is ideal for handling delicate or precise loads.
5. How is the crane controlled?
The crane comes with a choice of control methods. A wired pendant control that travels with the hoist is standard. An industrial wireless remote control is also available as an option, which allows the operator to stand at a safe distance with a clearer view of the lifting operation.
