Jib Crane with Intelligent Hoist

Product Introduction

Intelligent hoists are often used in combination with cantilevers, folding arms and trusses. Intelligent auxiliary lifting equipment is composed of servo drives, servo motors, reducers, etc. and is controlled by a microprocessor. The intelligent hoist is a hoisting equipment with intelligent control and has handle mode and suspension mode operation. The equipment realizes rapid handling and precise positioning of materials, improving operational safety and work quality. The equipment has multiple weight options: 80kg, 200kg, 300kg, 600kg.

The maximum speed can reach 40 meters/minute. Have stronger responsiveness. The product has low damage rate, fast return on investment, low risk of accidents, and is resistant to dust and moisture.

System Components

Jib Crane Structure: Can be a Free-Standing Pillar, Wall-Mounted, or an Articulating Arm. Articulating arms are favored in 2026 for their “two-pivot” design, allowing the hoist to reach around obstacles.

The Intelligent Hoist: A high-speed servo actuator that replaces traditional air or basic electric motors. It utilizes a steel wire rope or a specialized synthetic fiber rope for maximum stability and zero-vibration lifting.

Intelligent Handle: A multi-function interface that detects operator intent via Force-Sensing or Slide-Sensing technology.

Core Intelligent Features

A. “Float Mode” (Zero-Gravity)

The operator can then move the load by hand—grabbing the part itself—with virtually no resistance.This is critical for delicate alignment tasks, like seating a transmission or positioning a glass panel.

B. “Inch-Mode” & Millimeter Precision

Advanced servo control enables Zero-Speed Holding and ultra-fine positioning.

  • Minimum Speed: As low as 0.01m/min.
  • Accuracy: Repetitive positioning within 0.1mm, a level unreachable by standard VFD hoists.

C. Virtual Limits & Safety Enclosures

Operators can set “Digital Hard-Stops” via a wireless tablet interface.

  • Height Ceiling: Prevents the hoist from hitting overhead light fixtures or pipes.

  • Virtual Floor: Protects the load from impacting the ground or a fragile assembly jig.

  • Anti-Rebound: If the load is accidentally released or the rope is cut, the system locks instantly to prevent a “rebound” effect that could injure the operator.

Operational Modes

  • Handle Mode: The hoist moves in direct response to the displacement of the slide handle.

  • Suspension (Float) Mode: The load is balanced; the operator moves the load directly.

  • Auto-Home: With a single button press, the jib and hoist return to a preset “parking” position to clear the workspace.

  • Target Positioning: The hoist can be programmed to move to a specific Z-coordinate automatically once a signal is received from the production line PLC.

Strategic Benefits

  • Workforce Inclusivity: Allows any operator, regardless of physical strength, to handle heavy components (e.g., 250kg engine heads) safely.

  • Reduced Damage: The smooth start/stop transitions eliminate the “jerking” motion of traditional cranes, which is the primary cause of part damage during assembly.

  • Predictive Maintenance (PHM): The hoist monitors its own “Duty Cycle” and motor temperature. AI tools analyze this data to predict rope wear or brake failure 15 days before it occurs, moving from “Reactive” to “Proactive” maintenance.
