2 Ton Jib Crane

The 2-ton fixed-column jib crane is a versatile lifting tool for light- to medium-duty tasks in workshops, warehouses, and docks. It handles loads up to 2 000 kg with a horizontal reach of up to 10 m and a lift height of up to 10 m. You can swing its arm through 180°, 270° or a full circle to place goods with precision. Jib cranes have various types of jib cranes such as articulated, floor-mounted, wall-mounted, and wall traveling jib cranes. A jib crane has a horizontal boom (jib) that pivots on a mast or wall bracket. The hoist moves along the boom to cover a defined area. For a 2 ton jib crane, you gain a sturdy lift station that handles heavier loads than 1 ton models. Jib cranes excel at repetitive lifts in a fixed zone. They reduce block-and-tackle setups and free up forklifts for other tasks.

Types of 2-ton Jib Cranes

The main types of 2-ton jib cranes include pillar-mounted jib cranes, mobile jib cranes, wall-mounted jib cranes, wall-travelling jib cranes and articulating jib crane. Each option is designed to suit a different workspace and operating habit. Understanding these basic types helps you match the crane to your floor space, building structure, and daily lifting tasks. Pillar-mounted models offer full rotation and strong stability for fixed workstations. Mobile jib cranes give you flexibility when loads need to move between areas. Wall-mounted cranes save floor space and work well along production lines or walls. Folding arm designs help you manage tight spaces by allowing the arm to retract when not in use. Choosing the right type depends on your floor space, load path, and how often you need to reposition the crane.

Articulating Jib Crane

An articulating jib crane uses two or more boom sections that fold back toward the mast. Joints at the mast and mid-span let you change outreach quickly and safely. The boom folds so the crane tucks tight when you don't need it. For a 2-ton model you might extend to 4 m for full reach or fold to about 2 m to clear walkways and tooling — those ranges give you real flexibility on the shop floor. Rotation is full 360° at the mast for maximum coverage, and 180° at the elbow so the outer boom can sweep around obstacles. You can mount the crane on a floor mast for the strongest, most stable installation, or on a wall mast where columns or floor space are limited; choose the mount that fits your building and workflow. Hoists are typically electric chain or wire-rope; chain hoists are compact and good for frequent starts and stops, while wire-rope hoists suit longer lifts and continuous duty. Use articulating cranes at machining centers, welding benches, and assembly cells where you need precise, localized lifting. When the crane isn't needed, fold the boom back to keep aisles clear and reduce trip hazards.

Floor-Mounted Jib Crane

Floor-mounted jib cranes are a rugged, space-efficient option when you need a fixed lifting point in the middle of a workshop. A 2 t floor-mounted jib has a heavy steel mast and boom that sit on top bearings so the boom swings smoothly; boom lengths commonly run from 3 m to 8 m to match your workspace. These units bolt to a concrete pad with a flush floor plate, so you'll need a properly designed foundation and graded anchor bolts for safe long-term use. The jib can offer up to 360° continuous rotation, giving full coverage of a work cell without moving the crane base. Power for a motorized trolley or hoist is normally supplied via festoon cable or a busbar, which keeps cables tidy and reduces wear. These cranes work especially well for central lift points in repair bays, inspection stations, and parts staging areas where predictable, repeatable lifts are common. Before you buy, check that your floor load capacity, headroom, and required boom reach match the crane's specs, and plan for routine inspection of bearings, anchor bolts, and the hoist system to keep the crane reliable and safe.

Mobile Jib Crane

Mobile jib cranes are compact, wheeled lifting units that let you bring the boom to the load instead of moving the load to the crane. They ride on swivel casters or powered wheels so you can wheel them to the lift point and lock them in place. Boom lengths commonly run from 1 m to 5 m, giving a practical reach for most shop tasks. Mobility options include manual push or electric drive. Locking is handled by brake casters or deployable outriggers to keep the crane steady during lifts. Mobile models work especially well when you service machines across a large shop or move between job sites.

Wall-Mounted Jib Crane

Wall-mounted jib cranes bolt directly to a structural column or wall beam, so they keep your floor clear and your workflow unobstructed. With a 180°–270° rotation and booms from 3 m to 7 m, they give wide reach across workstations without moving the base. The welded steel plate bracket provides strong, rigid support and low upkeep. Because the lifting point is fixed to the wall, these cranes fit neatly at loading docks, along assembly lines, and in storage areas where space is tight. They make repetitive lifts quick and predictable while minimizing interference with other tasks. If you want a compact, reliable way to add lifting capacity to a specific spot, a wall-mounted jib crane is a practical choice.

Wall-Travelling Jib Crane

A wall-travelling jib crane pairs a wall-mounted jib with a motorized runway and carriage to give you a flexible, long-reach lifting solution for heavy loads. Designed here as a 2-ton system, the boom still swings for local positioning while the carriage runs along a custom runway, so you get both radial and long linear coverage in one unit. The motorized travel delivers smooth, controllable movement along the wall track, which speeds up workflows along long machine tool lines, paint booths, or inspection corridors. Installation needs a strong, well-braced wall or column and proper runway supports, so plan for professional mounting and the electrical supply for the travel motor and controls. You can choose simple pendant controls or wireless remote for safer, easier operation, and the crane can include standard safety features like travel and overload limit switches and an emergency stop.

Core Components

A jib crane relies on several key parts working together to deliver precise and reliable lifting. Below is a breakdown of each major component and its role in the crane's performance.

1. Boom and Pivot Bearing

The boom is built from a welded I-beam or box-section steel profile to resist bending under load. Articulating models include an elbow bearing that adds a second pivot point for greater reach. The top pivot uses taper-roller or slewing-ring bearings rated for dynamic loads. These bearings let the boom swing smoothly and handle side forces without binding or wear.

2. Mast or Wall Bracket

Floor-mounted cranes feature a plated steel mast bolted into a concrete foundation. The mast transfers bending and torsion from the boom and hoist safely to the ground. Wall-mounted cranes anchor to structural beams using gusseted brackets. Both support types are engineered to absorb the crane's lateral and vertical loads without shifting or twisting.

3. Hoist and Trolley

You can install chain hoists or low headroom hoists in areas with restricted headroom, or wire rope hoists for higher lifting heights and smoother operation. The hoist is suspended from a trolley which rolls along the boom track on sealed roller bearings. Trolleys are available with manual, gear-driven or electric drives. This flexibility allows you to customize the crane to meet your lifting height and cycle requirements.

4. Controls and Power Supply

Operators guide the crane via a pendant station, wireless remote, or cabin-mount console. Pendant cables run on festoon systems for floor-mounted cranes. Mobile jib cranes carry their own battery packs and chargers. Wall cranes draw power from the building using cable reels or busbar conductors. Each control scheme keeps power lines clear of snag hazards.

5. Safety Devices

Limit switches prevent the hoist from over-traveling at top and bottom positions. An overload limiter stops lifts above 2 t to protect the crane and load. Emergency-stop buttons appear on pendants, remotes, and control panels. Audible horns and flashing beacons warn bystanders of motion. An anti-two-block switch cuts power if the hook block nears the boom tip, avoiding cable damage or collapse.

Features and Benefits

This 2 t jib crane gives you practical lifting power where you need it most. It fits small work cells and maintenance bays. It balances capacity, reach, and ease of use. The design raises safety and speeds up tasks. It does this without large infrastructure costs or long shutdowns.

1. Capacity and productivity

With a 2 t safe working load you can move parts, molds, and assemblies that would otherwise require splitting or extra handling. That extra margin cuts the number of lifts and handoffs you need. Fewer handling steps mean faster cycle times and lower chance of damage. In short, you can do heavier jobs with fewer interruptions and keep your line moving.

2. Mounting and footprint

The mast or wall bracket mounts directly to a floor slab or existing beam. It takes up little space and keeps aisles clear for people and forklifts. Because it mounts close to the work area, you can add lifting capability without reworking your layout. This makes the jib crane a tidy retrofit for busy shops.

3. Installation simplicity

Installation requires only bolting the mast or bracket and minor concrete drilling or beam connections. You do not need new runway rails or major structural changes. That reduces upfront cost and site disruption.

4. Installation simplicity

Installation requires only bolting the mast or bracket and minor concrete drilling or beam connections. You do not need new runway rails or major structural changes. That reduces upfront cost and site disruption. Often you can have the crane ready to use in days rather than weeks.

5. Reach and boom options

Booms are available up to 10 m to cover most work zones. You can select the length that spans between machines, conveyor lines, or loading docks. In multi-station areas a longer boom reduces the need to move the crane or reposition loads. Choosing the right boom saves time and improves workflow.

6. Compact design and clearances

The single-girder boom and compact trolley fit under low ceilings and around existing pipework. That lets you maximize hook height without changing ceiling fixtures. Freestanding models give extra hook height while keeping clearances tight. The compact profile works well in constrained spaces.
