The structure of your material handling project can starts with specifying what equipment is needed. Cranes, hoists, tooling, controls, tube lifters, and fall protection are some of the main pieces of equipment you may require. JRG will work with your team to evaluate exactly what is needed, and come up with a world-class solution.
The most important part of your material handling system is the structure. JRG offers the highest quality cranes, from the world's leading manufacturers.
One of the most versatile styles of lifting structures are jib cranes. By using a main column, the footprint of crane is greatly reduced. In most cases, a 360° movement can maximize your coverage. Some of the main style jib cranes JRG provides are Work Station Jib Cranes, Aluminum Boom Jib Cranes, I-Beam Jib Cranes, and Articulating Jib Cranes:
Save on space without sacrificing strength and coverage by using a Gorbel Workstation Jib Crane. From capacities of 150 lbs. to 1,000 lbs., these versatile enclosed track cranes will last through the rigorous use of everyday production.
AIMCO Manufacturing offers Aluminum Boom Jib Cranes for projects that need air integration and a turnkey solution. Capacities range from 400 lbs. to 1,200 lbs., and can also be upgraded to full 360° swivel models.
When a higher capacity is needed, an I-beam jib crane is the best solution. Capacities range from 500 lbs. to 2 Tons, and can be ordered with a foundationless mounting (6" reinforced slab) if it meets the criteria.
Another product offered from AIMCO is the articulating jib. These jib's include primary and secondary arms, both with 360° swivels, and with internal airlines. They integrate perfect with rigid applications, and can handle 250 lbs. to 1,000 lbs. of weight.
When your work cell needs total coverage, from corner to corner, a bridge crane is the best option. You can also incorporate multiple bridges to zone out different work areas. The runways can be mounted either to freestanding posts lagged into the ground, or suspended overhead to avoid forklift traffic.
JRG will design a bridge crane system to be an exact fit to your plant layout. From capacities of 150 lbs. to 4,000 lbs., these cranes are made to handle heavy requirements, with the ease of a push/pull enclosed track.
Floor room is always valuable in any work space. If traffic is heavy around your work station, consider using a ceiling mounted crane system. JRG offers several different designs to connect to your overhead structure safely.
Keeping your operation simple is key to preventing injuries and maintaining efficiency. If movement is only needed in one direction, then a monorail crane is a perfect fit. Having one rail of travel eliminates a side to side motion, and can speed up assembly line tasks.
Posts and header beams will be used to connect the rail from end to end. A variety of hoists and tooling can be used with monorail cranes to further adapt to the operators needs.
An overhead monorail will have the smallest footprint possible in a work station. These structures are great for avoiding floor traffic, and allow the operator to easily travel with their payload.
