Motorized Jib Crane Rotation Kits Help Prevent Common Injuries; Are Now Available in Stainless Steel



STREETSBORO, OH - The David Round Company has announced that its Roto-Mate(TM) Jib Crane Motorization products are now available in stainless steel for sanitary and clean room use. Roto-Mate kits provide powered rotation to either new or existing jib cranes, which can significantly reduce the injury potential posed by manually-rotated cranes. Back injuries and strains frequently result from workers attempting to stop the motion of a boom on a swinging jib crane. The Roto-Mate package safely and accurately positions up to 5 ton loads with push-button control.

Additional ergonomic and safety benefits of the unit include the avoidance of "jib drift," which is the unintended movement of a boom due to vibration or floors that are not perfectly flat. The Roto-Mate unit has a friction drive which locks the jib in place, eliminating drift and the collision potential it creates. Additionally, jib motorization can eliminate hoist side-loading, avoid machinery damage and help keep operators farther away from crane loads while they are in motion.

Roto-Mate motorization is available for nearly all makes of free-standing jibs as a retrofit upgrade package to improve ergonomics, or it is available on new David Round jib cranes.
