SEVENCRANE successfully delivered a customized pillar jib crane to a customer in Costa Rica, supporting material handling operations in a local glass factory. The project was completed with a delivery time of 20 working days and shipped by sea under CIF terms to San Jose Port. Payment was arranged on a T/T basis, with 50% paid in advance and the remaining 50% settled before shipment. This efficient cooperation highlights SEVENCRANE’s ability to respond quickly to international customer requirements while maintaining stable product quality.
Customer Background and Project Overview
The customer is an intermediary operating within the service industry, acting as a supplier for industrial end users. During the initial communication stage, the client inquired about spider cranes for flexible lifting applications. However, after further discussion regarding the actual working environment and production needs, the customer also showed strong interest in a pillar jib crane solution.
To evaluate product quality and performance, the customer decided to first purchase one unit as a trial order, with plans to procure an additional four lifting cranes in future stages if operational expectations are met. This approach reflects the importance of reliability, safety, and long-term cooperation in intermediary-driven projects.
Technical Specifications and Configuration
The supplied equipment is a pillar jib crane, model BZ, designed with a working duty classification of A3. It has a rated lifting capacity of 2 tons, a jib arm length of 7.5 meters, and a lifting height of 6 meters. The crane operates via remote control, allowing operators to manage loads safely and conveniently from a distance.
The electrical configuration is 380V, 50Hz, three-phase, which complies with standard industrial power requirements. The crane is finished in a standard industrial color, suitable for factory environments. Additionally, the crane is equipped with a running electric chain hoist, providing smooth lifting, stable load movement, and precise positioning. Production and installation were carried out based on customer-provided reference drawings to ensure compatibility with the site layout.
Application in Glass Factory Operations
In glass manufacturing facilities, material handling requires precise control, smooth operation, and high safety standards. Glass panels and components are sensitive to impact and vibration, making the pillar jib crane an ideal solution for localized lifting tasks such as loading, unloading, and transferring materials between workstations.
The column-mounted structure allows 360-degree rotation, enabling flexible coverage of the working area without occupying excessive floor space. The compact design is particularly suitable for workshops where overhead crane installation may be limited or unnecessary. The remote control operation further enhances safety by keeping operators at a safe distance during lifting operations.
Advantages of Pillar Jib Crane Solution
Compared with larger crane systems, the pillar jib crane offers a cost-effective and efficient lifting solution for light to medium-duty applications. Its independent column design does not rely on building structures, reducing installation complexity and structural requirements. The integration of an electric chain hoist ensures low maintenance costs and reliable long-term operation.
Conclusion
This Costa Rica project demonstrates SEVENCRANE’s capability to provide customized pillar jib crane solutions tailored to specific industry applications and customer expectations. By offering flexible configuration options, fast delivery, and reliable product quality, SEVENCRANE continues to support global partners in improving material handling efficiency. With positive performance from this initial unit, the project also lays a solid foundation for future multi-unit cooperation.
