Cantilever crane
Weiyuan BZ Type Pillar Jib Crane (0.5T – 5T)

Product Overview
The Weiyuan BZ Type Pillar-Mounted Jib Crane is a versatile and robust freestanding lifting solution designed for modern industrial environments. With a flexible capacity range from 500kg to 5 tons, this cantilever crane provides a comprehensive lifting system for workshops, warehouses, and assembly lines. Its design features a vertical pillar securely anchored to a concrete foundation, supporting a rotating cantilever arm that offers 180, 270, or a full 360 degrees of slewing. Paired with a high-performance electric hoist, this pillar jib crane delivers exceptional efficiency and safety for localized material handling.
Product Advantages
- Versatile Lifting Capacities: With a wide range of available capacities (0.5T, 1T, 2T, 3T, 4T, 5T), you can select the precise strength needed for your specific tasks, from light-duty component handling to heavy-duty material lifting.
- Full Rotational Coverage: Offering up to 360-degree rotation, this crane provides complete lifting coverage within its circular working area, maximizing utility and easily serving multiple workstations from a single point.
- Independent and Freestanding: As a self-supporting structure bolted to its own foundation, it operates independently of your building’s structural supports. This allows for flexible placement anywhere you have a solid floor and sufficient space.
- High Efficiency and Low Labor Intensity: The crane significantly reduces the need for manual lifting and transport. Its smooth rotation and reliable electric hoist allow a single operator to move heavy loads quickly and safely, boosting productivity.
- Durable and Cost-Effective: The BZ Type jib crane is known for its simple structure, easy maintenance, and long service life. It offers a highly economical lifting solution compared to more complex overhead crane systems, providing excellent value.
Application Scenarios
- Manufacturing and Assembly Lines: Perfect for lifting and moving parts along a production sequence, supplying components to workstations, and handling finished products.
- Machine Shops: An indispensable tool for loading heavy workpieces onto machine tools, changing out dies, and moving raw materials within a work cell.
- Warehouses and Storage Yards: Ideal for lifting goods from pallets, loading and unloading trucks, and moving inventory in areas not serviced by a main overhead crane.
- Maintenance and Repair Facilities: Provides essential lifting support for removing and installing engines, motors, pumps, and other heavy equipment.
- Ports and Docks: Suitable for smaller-scale lifting tasks at docksides, helping to move supplies and equipment efficiently.

FAQ
1. What kind of foundation is required for a 5-ton pillar jib crane?
A pillar jib crane requires a substantial, specially designed reinforced concrete foundation to safely counteract the overturning forces of the lift. The exact dimensions and reinforcement specifications depend on the crane’s capacity, height, and arm length, and must be designed by a qualified civil engineer.
2. Should I choose manual or motorized rotation?
For lighter capacities (up to 2 tons) and shorter arm lengths, manual rotation is often sufficient and more economical. For higher capacities, longer arm lengths, or applications requiring frequent rotation, motorized slewing provides better control, precision, and operator ergonomics.
3. What is the difference between a jib crane and a gantry crane?
A jib crane typically has a single mast and a rotating arm, providing circular coverage in a fixed area. A gantry crane has two legs that travel along rails (or on wheels) and is used to cover a rectangular area, often spanning the entire width of a workshop or yard.
4. Can this BZ-type crane be used outdoors?
Yes, it can be designed for outdoor use. This requires special considerations, including a weatherproof paint finish, a protective rain cover for the hoist and motors, and ensuring all electrical components are suitably rated for outdoor exposure.
5. How do I get a price for a jib crane customized for my workshop?
Simply contact our sales team with your key requirements: desired lifting capacity (e.g., 2 tons), required arm length (radius), lifting height, and your facility’s power supply details. We will provide a detailed and competitive quotation tailored to your needs.
