This guide explains the jib crane types, the details to share before design, a six-step way to choose, how a jib crane compares with EOT and gantry cranes, and how we support plants across Dungarpur and Banswara districts.
Who is a jib crane manufacturer for Dungarpur and Banswara?
R K Engineering Works is a Jaipur crane and lift manufacturer certified to ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001. Our jib cranes are designed with reference to IS 807 for crane structures, and every jib crane is load-tested at 125% of rated capacity before handover. One team handles the design, the foundation drawing, fabrication, erection, testing and the annual maintenance contract.
A jib crane is a slewing arm (boom) with a hoist that travels along it. It serves one workstation or one loading point, so it is the simplest way to stop manual lifting at a machine, a cutting table or a truck bay.
Which jib crane type fits your workstation?
| Jib crane type | How it is mounted | Typical use in Dungarpur and Banswara |
|---|---|---|
| Pillar-mounted jib crane | Steel pillar on its own foundation; slews up to 360° | Cutting and polishing stations in stone units, machine shops, open loading points |
| Wall-mounted jib crane | Brackets on a strong wall or column; slews about 180° | Workshops and mills where floor space must stay clear |
| Column-bracket jib crane | Clamped or bolted to an existing shed column | Assembly lines and repair bays beside building columns |
| Motorised slewing jib crane | Pillar type with powered slewing | Heavier or frequent lifts where hand slewing is tiring |
For background on where jib cranes earn their place in a plant, see our guide to jib crane uses in factories.
Jib crane spec sheet: what to share before design
| Detail | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Heaviest load, with tackle | Sizes the boom, pillar, hoist and foundation |
| Reach (boom length) | Sets the work circle and the overturning moment |
| Hook height | Decides pillar height and hoist type |
| Slewing angle | 180° for wall types, up to 360° for pillar types |
| Mounting | Pillar on foundation, wall brackets or shed column |
| Lifts per hour | Sets hoist duty and whether slewing should be motorised |
| Site | Dust from stone cutting, outdoor use and power supply |
If you are not sure of a value, our engineer measures it during the site survey.
How to choose a jib crane in 6 steps
- Define the work circle. Mark where the load is picked and where it is placed; this gives reach and slewing angle.
- Fix the heaviest load. Include slings, clamps or a vacuum lifter in the weight.
- Choose the mounting. Pillar for open floors or yards; wall or column brackets only if the structure is checked and strong enough.
- Pick the hoist. An electric chain hoist suits light, occasional lifts; a wire rope hoist suits heavier or frequent lifts. Compare them in our wire rope hoist vs chain hoist guide.
- Plan the foundation. A pillar jib crane needs a designed foundation block or anchor plate; we supply the civil drawing.
- Agree testing and service. A 125% load test with slewing and brake checks at handover, then AMC visits for the hoist, slewing bearing and electrics.
Jib crane vs EOT crane vs gantry crane
| Point | Jib crane | EOT crane | Gantry crane |
|---|---|---|---|
| Area covered | One work circle | Whole shed bay | Open yard or bay on ground rails |
| Structure needed | Pillar foundation or strong wall | Runway on building columns | Own legs and ground rails |
| Load range | Light loads | Light to heavy | Light to heavy |
| Installation time | Short | Longer | Longer |
| Typical use | Machine, cutting table, truck bay | Production and stores bays | Stone, pipe and storage yards |
If loads must move across the whole bay, an EOT crane is the better fit; for open yards, see gantry vs semi-gantry vs goliath crane. Many plants use a jib crane at one station and an EOT crane for the bay.
Which plants in Dungarpur and Banswara use jib cranes?
- Marble, stone and soapstone units: block and slab handling at cutting and polishing stations.
- Textile and yarn mills: beam and roll handling at machines and in dispatch.
- Engineering and fabrication workshops: loading lathes, drills and welding fixtures.
- Vehicle, pump and motor repair shops: lifting engines, gearboxes and motors.
- Warehouses and agri stores: lifting sacks and crates onto trucks at a fixed bay.
Service area, testing and AMC
From our VKI Area works in Jaipur, we survey, supply, erect and service jib cranes across Dungarpur district (Dungarpur, Sagwara, Aspur, Simalwara) and Banswara district (Banswara, Kushalgarh, Ghatol, Bagidora). For plants in Udaipur division we also build EOT cranes; see our EOT crane manufacturer for Udaipur page.
Every crane we build, including jib cranes, is load-tested at 125% of rated capacity before handover; read what a 125% load test checks. Our AMC covers the hoist, wire rope or chain, slewing bearing, brakes, limit switches and electrical panel.
Key facts: R K Engineering Works, Jaipur, since 1998. ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certified. Jib cranes designed with reference to IS 807 and load-tested at 125%. Serving Dungarpur and Banswara districts.
Frequently asked questions
Who is a jib crane manufacturer for Dungarpur and Banswara?
R K Engineering Works, 29 Udyog Vihar, VKI Area, Jaipur, designs, builds, installs and services pillar-mounted and wall-mounted jib cranes for plants in Dungarpur, Sagwara, Banswara, Kushalgarh and nearby towns.
Which jib crane suits a marble or stone workshop?
A pillar-mounted jib crane with full slewing usually suits a cutting or polishing station. It covers the whole work circle and does not depend on the shed wall.
Does a pillar jib crane need a special foundation?
Yes. The pillar transfers a large overturning moment to the floor, so we design a foundation block or anchor plate for your soil and floor, and give a civil drawing.
Is a jib crane load-tested before handover?
Yes. Like all our cranes, each jib crane is load-tested at 125% of rated capacity, with slewing, brake and limit-switch checks, and handed over with a test certificate.
