Jib crane or Overhead crane

A Satellite jib has a swivel that enables it to articulate its two arms. It is therefore possible for loads to be handled in confined or hard-to-reach areas by bypassing obstacles. This jib model, designed and manufactured in France by Manut-LM, offers many advantages. The suction passes through the arms of the jib, which bypasses the installation of a flexible suction tube and the area covered by the manipulator is greater than that of a simple triangular jib installation.

Manut-LM triangular jib cranes with a sliding rail are a simple and economical solution to secure all types of lifting equipment and to ease the manual handling of loads. Robust, with a capacity to handle very heavy loads, these jib cranes can be easily and quickly installed in your working environment.

The jib crane kit with an aluminium or steel rail is a solution composed of a standard column on which a rail in several parts is installed. There are very few constraints to this installation. This solution is lighter than the standard triangular jib crane, which can lift loads of up to 50 kg. It is the ideal solution for lifting light loads because the friction coefficient of the bearings is low, thus enabling smooth movement.

The space-saving jib cranes are designed to maximize the height of the attachment for the handling tool. Unlike triangular jib cranes, they are at right angles, which reduces both the space required above and below the support.

They can therefore be integrated in confined work areas with little available ceiling height while at the same time offering a high handling height.

In large-scale storage areas or on production lines involving the handling of heavy loads  at different workstations, overhead cranes are the most suitable supports. They make it possible to cover a large surface area with a maximum  capacity of movement.
