SKS column jib crane – I-beam Manual
SKS Kraner delivers tailor-made cranes precisely adapted to your lifting needs – whether you require a small service crane with a manual or no trolley and a hand chain hoist for occasional use, or a heavy-duty crane for daily operations with a motorized trolley and electric chain hoist, we have the solution.
Column jib cranes are particularly well-suited for freestanding installation – ideal for workstations requiring versatile crane coverage within a defined area. The column jib crane requires minimal supporting structure, making it highly popular in production environments, workshops, and warehouses where beams or walls cannot support heavy loads – or in the middle of spaces or yards where only a concrete foundation is available for anchoring the crane.
The column jib crane is available with either a straight jib arm or a jib arm with an overhead tie rod – the choice depending on whether you need maximum lifting height versus low installation height or the easiest possible manual operation.
Column jib cranes can also be delivered with a counterweight base, allowing them to be moved by forklift.
Lifting Capacity: 63 kg – 10,000 kg.
Delivered pre-assembled, tested, and CE marked.

SKS Kraner delivers custom-built cranes perfectly tailored to your lifting needs – whether you require a small service crane with a manual or no trolley and hand chain hoist for occasional use, or a heavy-duty crane for daily operation with both motorized trolley and electric chain hoist, we have the right solution for you.
Column jib cranes are particularly suitable for freestanding installation, for example at workstations that require flexible crane coverage within a specific area. The column jib crane places minimal demands on any supporting structure, making it especially popular in production facilities, workshops, and warehouses where beams or walls cannot support heavy loads – or in open spaces or rooms where only a cast foundation is available for anchoring the crane.
The column jib crane is available either with a straight-mounted jib arm or with an overhead-tied jib arm, depending on whether maximum lifting height or minimal installation height/ease of manual handling is the priority.
Column jib cranes can also be supplied with a counterweight base, making them movable by forklift.
