Assembly plants often require a range of cranes and hoists to complete their requirements efficiently. Large appliances begin with a small motor, compressor, and an empty shell that can be moved with a freestanding crane before assembly. Once completed, a larger hoist is needed to get the final product into packaging and shipping.

A 250-pound freestanding, articulating jib crane is an excellent choice for assembly and moving operations with smaller items. This type of crane provides more flexibility than many other types of cranes and hoists, is a reliable workhorse, and can be moved to a new location without special tools. The Spanco 402M-16-14-250 Articulating Jib Crane fromProtek Crane Solutions is a superb option.

Key features of this device include the following:

• The inner arm length is eight-feet 6-inches and the outer arm length of 7-feet 6-inches which increases flexibility and reach
• 16-foot total arm span provides more operating radius than other comparable models
• Articulated arm lets operators more precisely position workloads for mounting onto a frame, such as attaching an engine onto a motorcycle
• 14-foot hook height allows employees to raise even large items high enough for safe, comfortable positioning while working
• 12 ¾-inch mast diameter for sturdy support during operation

These features are just a few that make an articulating jib crane the ideal device for handling individual parts, fully assembled products, and other items in manufacturing facilities. This model is also a fantastic tool for loading and shipping products in distribution centers and warehouses and lifting items for maintenance and repair support.
