In recent years, Qatar's construction industry has developed rapidly. Consequently, the demand for efficient and reliable lifting equipment has also surged. A popular choice for outdoor construction sites is the column
jib crane, which is specifically designed to move heavy loads with ease. Last month, DQCRANES designed and exported a 5 ton
pillar jib crane with an
electric chain hoist to Qatar, the following is a detailed case study for your reference.
Crane Requirement
The construction site is a large infrastructure project that requires the movement of heavy materials and equipment. The site was located in a desert environment, and the weather conditions were often hot and dusty. The project manager was looking for a lifting solution that would withstand the rigors of the site while ensuring worker safety. They contacted DQCRANES and chose a 5 ton column jib crane for their applications.
Design Solution
The column mounted jib crane consists of a vertical column mounted on a solid concrete base to provide stability and strength. A crane arm (also known as a jib) with a length of 5.1 meters, extends horizontally from a column and can rotate 360 degrees. This feature allows for efficient operation in confined spaces and the ability to cover a wide working area without the need for additional equipment.
The 5 ton jib crane was equipped with an electric chain hoist, with a lifting height of 4.8 meters, powered by a 3-phase 380V motor, and it had a lifting speed of 2.7 meters per minute. Electric chain hoists offer several advantages over traditional manual hoists, including higher lifting capacities, smoother operation, and improved safety features. Electric chain hoists are powered by electricity, eliminating the need for physical labor and reducing the risk of operator fatigue.
Benefits
Qatar experiences extreme weather conditions, including high temperatures and sandstorms. Therefore, DQCRANES pillar jib cranes are specially designed to withstand such conditions. It is made of high-quality materials that withstand corrosion, extreme temperatures, sand, and dust. This ensures the longevity and durability of the crane, even in adverse weather conditions.
The combination of an electric chain hoist and column jib crane has dramatically improved the productivity and efficiency of the construction site. The hoist enables fast and precise lifting of heavy loads, reducing the time required for manual labor and minimizing the risk of accidents. The crane operator can easily control the movement of the crane using the pendant controller, ensuring accurate material placement.
Feedback
The project manager was delighted to have found us - DQCRANES, as a reliable jib crane manufacturer and supplier, we can provide them with a high quality 5 ton jib crane that met their specific requirements. We also provide after-sales services, including installation, training, and maintenance, ensuring the cranes run smoothly throughout the project.
Jib Cranes for Outdoor Use - DQCRANES
- Self-supporting: Freestanding jib cranes are self-supporting, which means they do not require any external support structures. This makes them ideal for outdoor use, where there may not be any existing structures to support a crane.
- Weatherproof: Jib cranes can be weatherproofed to protect them from the elements. This includes features such as weather-resistant coatings, sealed electrical components, and rust-resistant materials.
- Durable: Jib cranes are designed to be durable and withstand the rigors of outdoor use. This includes features such as heavy-duty construction, high-quality components, and overload protection.
- Versatile: Jib cranes can be used for a variety of outdoor applications, such as loading and unloading materials, lifting and moving heavy objects, and construction work.
Outdoor Jib Crane Applications
- Warehouse and distribution centers: Column mounted jib cranes are often used in warehouses and distribution centers to load and unload goods from trucks. They can also be used to move goods around the warehouse, such as from the loading dock to the storage area.
- Construction sites: Column mounted jib cranes are also commonly used on construction sites to lift and move materials. They can be used to lift beams, girders, and other heavy objects.
- Manufacturing plants: Column mounted jib cranes are also used in manufacturing plants to move materials around the plant. They can be used to lift and move raw materials, finished products, and other equipment.
- Shipyards: Column mounted jib cranes are also used in shipyards to lift and move ships and other large objects. They can be used to load and unload ships, as well as to move ships around the shipyard.
