Luffing Jib

Luffing jibs are versatile tower cranes, suitable for any construction site and useful for smaller sites where oversailing needs to be managed or multiple tower cranes required. This crane does not have a trolley, the hoist rope always comes out of the top jib section. These twoer cranes usually operate in single fall or two fall on the cable.
