Go Around Obstacles

Two‑part knuckle arm reaches into tight spaces where straight jibs can’t.

Precise, Low Effort

Low push force with self‑aligning bearings; VFD hoists for delicate tasks.

Safety Built‑In

Overload limit, rotation stops, e‑stop; optional anti‑spark kit (Ex).

Flexible Mounting

Floor pillar, wall bracket or ceiling (overhead) mount to suit your bay.

Why Articulating Jib?

  • Bypass obstructions: inner + outer arms pivot independently to reach around columns, doors and machines.
  • Target just the area you need: 2–8 m effective outreach with low‑headroom articulation.
  • Fast retrofit: base‑plate, bracket or ceiling hangers minimize floor changes.
  • Low ownership cost: standard chain hoists and simple festoon/energy chain electrics.
