Pillar-Mounted Slewing Jib Crane BETA 100 – Heavy-Duty Lifting

Are you looking for an exceptionally robust and powerful lifting solution for your most demanding industrial operations? The BETA 100 pillar-mounted slewing jib crane from CranePlex is our heavy-duty flagship model, engineered to handle significant loads with maximum safety and precision. Manufactured in the European Union from top-grade steel, this powerhouse crane provides unwavering support for heavy manufacturing, assembly, and large-scale material handling.

The BETA 100 pillar-mounted slewing jib crane is designed for 360° rotation, high load capacity (up to 5,000 kg), and fully customizable configurations for demanding applications.

Because industrial requirements vary drastically, we do not offer "off-the-shelf" or finished cranes. Every BETA 100 crane is a separate, specific project, engineered strictly for your unique working conditions. Each unit comes with its own serial number, dedicated certificate, and detailed instruction manual.

Uncompromising Safety & Compliance

Manufactured to the highest European standards (Made in EU), the BETA 100 ensures complete operational safety and regulatory compliance for the UK market. Our cranes strictly adhere to:

• UKCA Marked
• Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008
• BS EN 13001 (Cranes. General design)
• BS EN 60204-32 (Safety of machinery. Electrical equipment of machines)

Ideal Applications (Where to use it)

Built to withstand rigorous daily use and heavy lifting, the BETA 100 is the ultimate material handling system for intensive industrial and commercial environments:

• Heavy manufacturing and steel processing: Safely lifting and positioning large metal components, steel beams, and heavy machinery parts.
• Production halls and foundries: Feeding oversized raw materials into heavy-duty CNC machines, presses, and industrial furnaces.
• Large-scale warehouses and logistics hubs: Handling heavy shipping crates, oversized pallets, and bulk materials with ease.
• Shipyards and heavy equipment workshops: Assisting engineers in moving massive engines, gearboxes, or construction vehicle components during complex repairs.
• Outdoor loading yards: Loading and unloading heavy goods from HGVs and flatbed trailers.

Key Build & Design Features

• Materials: Constructed from high-strength steel for maximum durability. The swivel arm features a standard IPE profile, perfectly adapted to work with a wide range of trolleys and hoists.
• Anti-Corrosion: Superior protection achieved through machine shotblasting followed by two-layer spray painting.
• Optimized Support Column: Made from heavy-duty steel pipe, with height and diameter fully adapted to user requirements.
• Stable Foundation: The ribbed foot of the load-bearing column guarantees a solid, safe attachment.
• Ergonomic Operation: Engineered for low noise levels, ensuring the comfort and safety of operators' work.
• Agility: Short installation time and the distinct possibility of future relocation if your warehouse layout changes.

Lifting Capacity & Outreach Specifications

Whether you need to lift light loads or handle heavy machinery, we customize the outreach and Safe Working Load (WLL) to your specifications:

• Working Load Limit (WLL): From 125 kg up to 5,000 kg
• Outreach: From 1 metre up to 12 metres

Customizable Drive, Hoist & Trolley Options

Tailor the mechanical design and equipment of your BETA 100 to suit your work intensity group and specific lifting tasks:

Outdoor adaptation (Weatherproofing): Heavy loads often need to be handled outside. We offer bespoke adaptations for harsh outdoor conditions, including  specialised marine-grade anti-corrosion paint systems (e.g., C3/C4/, and weatherproof covers to protect hoists and electrical components from the elements.

1. Rotation & Arm Drives

• Manual Drive (NB)
• Electric Drive: Upper drive with a toothed gear (NG) or friction electromechanical drive with double rollers linked by a drive chain (ND).

NB	NG	ND

• Working Area Limitation: Optional SO Bumpers (screwed to the column during assembly) and full arm rotation automation available.

2. Chain Hoists & Trolleys

Choose between recommended electric chain hoists:

Hoist ESW with electric trolley EWE                                         Hoist ESW with hand trolley EWP                                          Hoist VX with hand trolley WP                                    Hoist VX with electric trolley WE

Or manual chain hoists:

• Hoist SBE with hand trolley POT

Trolleys: Available as manually driven by a maneuvering chain, low suspension manual drive, or low suspension with full electric drive.

3. Advanced Control Systems

Control the crane from an attached cassette (to the hoist) or independently via a separate cable route.

• Standard (ST): Single cable route, cassette control.

cassette control ST (STANDARD)	cassette control SE (OPTION)
control with a manipulator SM (OPTION)	control cylindrical SC (OPTION)
radio control SR (OPTION)

• Optional Upgrades: Double cable route (pendant moves independently of the carriage), Cassette Control SE, Manipulator SM, Cylindrical Control SC, or Radio Control SR.

Additional Electrics: Optional electrical socket situated at the hoist to supply power to suspended devices (e.g., vacuum grippers with an electric pump).

Foundation & Installation Methods

The price of the crane does not include installation costs or anchors. We recommend the following reliable floor fixing methods for the BETA series:

• Fixing with anchors directly onto a reinforced concrete foundation.
• Fastening to the existing concrete floor using a steel intermediate plate and heavy-duty chemical anchors.
