The AL100 Wall Bracket Work Station Jib Crane utilizes Gorbel's patented light-weight, high strength extruded aluminum enclosed track.  This revolutionary track reduces the rotational dead weight of the boom by 56% to 68%, making the jib up to 40% easier to rotate than comparable I-beam jibs. 

Work Station Jib Cranes are the ideal substitute for traditional, heavy I-Beam Jib Cranes.  These jibs are designed to service circular areas and support tool balancers, air balancers, vacuum lifters, and hoists.

Gorbel's Seismic Zone IV Cranes have been designed for the most rigorous applications in areas that must adhere to Seismic Zone IV building code requirements.  These cranes are completely free standing and require no sway bracing. 

The monorail curve is a section of track that is formed to provide a 90° bend. Curve sections have a straight area that projects beyond the curve. The curve needs to be supported with three hangers.

When a work area must be free from any support structures that may interfere with operations, ceiling mounted bridge cranes are an excellent solution to keeping floors clear. 

Gorbel Free Standing Work Station Bridge Cranes can handle the toughest overhead lifting tasks. These cranes, which can be installed on any normal 6-inch reinforced concrete floor, feature a pre-engineered, modular design that can easily expand as your work centers expand.
