Motorized Rotation Jib
Gorbel Motorized Jibs are not mere adaptations. They are totally conceived as motorized products, with all the outstanding features of our standard jib cranes, plus more. Gorbel can provide the right solution when a powered rotational jib is desired over a traditional “push pull” crane.
Motorized Jibs are available in the Free Standing, Wall Bracket, Wall Cantilever, and Mast Type Series. Retrofit Motorized kits for Free Standing Jibs are also available, just give us a call.

Precision
- Direct drive for all series jib cranes allows for accurate and
consistent positioning of loads. This modular drive design
makes maintenance easy and reduces long term costs - Wall Cantilever and Mast Type masts are boxed for extra
rigidity to withstand the forces of a Motorized Crane and
provide more precise load control
