Jib Cranes to Optimize Assembly Lines in the Automotive Industry

Client's Requirement:

• A manufacturer in the Automotive industry contacted us for a light crane system to optimize their component assembly line area.
• The current area was cluttered with pallets and equipment in places that didn’t allow tow motors and pallet jacks to easily access the area.
• With so much clutter, there was no room for the tool boxes and equipment needed to assemble the components. The workforce had to walk outside the work area to gather the tools needed.
• Another aspect to the challenge the manufacturer presented was the need to have an adaptable system that could be easily moved when changes to their processes were made.

Crane Solutions:

• Our Cantilever jib crane met the needs of this manufacturer in many ways.
• Since the jib crane system is supported by columns and attached to the footers in the floor, the system is deployable with future process changes.
• Because it has one fully open side, eliminating the support columns on one side, it’s easy to move equipment in and out of the area safely.
• The light lifting system virtually eliminated the manual lifting process on the assembly line.
• The area underneath the jib crane system could be organized to bring in necessary tool boxes and carts so the workforce could have easy access.
• All these steps made their assembly line area more efficient and safer.

workstation jib crane System is so flexible and provide a safer work area for the workforce, can grow with the ever changing needs of our customers.
