Equipment: BX Type Wall-Mounted Slewing Jib Crane (1 Ton Capacity)
At Dongqi Crane, we deliver tailored lifting solutions that solve real-world material handling challenges. In 2025, we designed and manufactured a custom BX type wall-mounted jib crane for a steel structure manufacturing facility in Cyprus. Today, we are pleased to share feedback and photos from the site, demonstrating how this installation is transforming their daily operations.
The client, a steel structure manufacturing factory in Cyprus, required an efficient lifting solution for their welding and assembly workstations. Their primary challenges were limited floor space and the need for reliable, repetitive lifting of steel components .
After thorough consultation, our engineering team configured a BX Series Wall-Mounted Jib Crane to their exact specifications:
We recently received photos showing the crane in full operation at the Cyprus facility. Along with the images, the client shared their initial feedback:
“The Dongqi BX jib crane has been a game-changer for our steel fabrication line. We were initially concerned about supporting an 8.8-meter boom from the wall, but the engineering is rock-solid. The rotation is smooth, and the 4-meter lift height gives us excellent vertical clearance for stacking and retrieving materials.
“The biggest advantage is how it has freed up our workshop floor. We no longer need forklifts constantly moving through this work area just to keep our fabricators supplied. The crane allows a single worker to precisely position heavy steel components, which has significantly reduced fatigue and improved our workflow efficiency.
“The 400V power supply integrated seamlessly with our existing electrical system, and the installation process was straightforward with minimal disruption to our production. This is a simple, reliable tool that keeps our production moving every day.” — Production Manager, Cyprus Steel Fabrication Client
The BX wall-mounted design requires no foundation and takes up no valuable floor space . For a busy steel workshop where every square meter counts, this was the primary advantage. The crane mounts directly to the wall structure, keeping walkways clear and allowing vehicles and personnel to move freely beneath the jib arm .
With an 8.8-meter boom, this crane offers exceptional reach for a wall-mounted unit in its class. It provides a massive working radius, allowing operators to cover multiple workstations or a large storage area from a single mounting point. The standard 180° rotation creates an efficient semi-circular workspace .
Built specifically for steel fabrication environments, the crane features high-strength steel construction designed to minimize deflection (maintaining L/300 limits) even at full 1-ton capacity . The tie-rod design ensures structural stability under load, while all components undergo full-load factory testing before delivery .
The system provides effortless load positioning with smooth manual rotation and electric hoist control. This reduces manual handling risks and allows precise placement of heavy steel components, significantly reducing worker fatigue compared to manual rigging .
The crane mounts directly to existing wall structures, eliminating special foundation requirements and reducing installation costs by 40-60% compared to floor-mounted alternatives . Installation teams complete mounting quickly with minimal production disruption.
Standard safety equipment includes overload protection, upper/lower limit switches, and emergency stop functions . These features ensure safe operation in demanding industrial environments.
The BX wall-mounted jib crane has proven its versatility across diverse industries and geographic regions worldwide.
In manufacturing facilities across Europe, Asia, and the Americas, BX cranes serve production lines for machine tool loading/unloading, component positioning, and assembly support . The space-saving design is particularly valued in facilities with congested floor plans.
Warehouses and distribution centers utilize these cranes for efficient storage and retrieval operations . The 180° rotation and extended reach allow operators to access racking systems without occupying aisle space with floor-mounted equipment.
At port facilities worldwide, BX cranes handle small-scale cargo operations and container loading/unloading . Their compact design and flexible operation adapt well to the complex, variable environments of working docks.
In mining applications, BX cranes handle ore, equipment, and supplies in maintenance areas and processing facilities . Their robust construction withstands harsh conditions, while the wall-mounted design keeps valuable floor space clear for heavy equipment movement.
Construction projects employ portable configurations of BX cranes for material handling at multiple locations . The ability to mount temporarily on existing structures provides flexibility for evolving job site needs.
In 2024, Dongqi Crane supplied a BX jib crane to a customer in Ecuador—their second purchase from our company . This repeat order demonstrates the trust that international clients place in Dongqi products. The Ecuadorian customer selected the BX crane for its ability to install directly on walls or columns without occupying ground space, proving particularly valuable in their facility with limited floor area .
Applications in the Ecuador facility include:
BX cranes are also deployed in:
Every Dongqi BX jib crane meets international safety and quality standards, including CE certification and ISO 9001 compliance . Our engineering team provides comprehensive support from selection through installation, including:
The successful installation in Cyprus demonstrates Dongqi Crane’s commitment to providing custom-engineered, high-quality lifting solutions for clients worldwide. By combining the space-saving advantages of wall-mounted design with an extended 8.8-meter reach and 1-ton capacity, we helped this steel manufacturer enhance safety, reclaim valuable floor space, and boost productivity.
From steel fabrication in Cyprus to port operations in Ecuador, the BX wall-mounted jib crane continues to prove its value across diverse markets and applications. Its combination of zero floor space occupation, robust construction, and flexible operation makes it the ideal choice for facilities seeking to optimize material handling without compromising workspace.
