1. Client Background
Company A in Australia is a leading local industrial tank engineering service provider with more than 20 years of industry experience. The company specializes in the design, installation, repair, tank lining installation, and regular inspection of large storage tanks. Its projects span multiple sectors, including mining, water infrastructure, energy, and government facilities, all of which require exceptionally high standards for equipment safety, reliability, and operational compatibility.
With the growth of its business, Company A needed a set of professional lifting equipment for on-site tank installation and maintenance to improve operational efficiency and reduce manual handling risks.
2. Client Requirements and Challenges
During the initial communication, Company A presented the following clear requirements:
1. The equipment must rotate and operate flexibly within limited spaces, especially indoors or near tank
installation areas.
2. It must safely lift large-size, thin, or easily damaged materials.
3. It should reduce manual handling intensity and lower operational risks.
4. The client expected a cost-effective, easy-to-maintain, turnkey lifting solution.
5. The equipment needed to be compatible with workpieces of different materials, sizes, and weights.
The client’s primary concern was: How to achieve safe, efficient, low-cost, and easy-to-operate lifting
under complex working conditions?
3. Our Solution
1. Precise Selection of a JIB Crane
After thoroughly understanding Company A’s working procedures, load requirements, operating radius,
and structural installation conditions, we recommended a light-duty JIB crane as the most suitable option.
This model offers the following advantages:
l Flexible rotation with wide working coverage;
l Stable structure capable of handling high-frequency operations;
l Supports flexible combinations of electric or manual lifting and trolley movement;
l Ideal for repeated short-distance lifting tasks during tank installation and maintenance.
2. Customized Lifting Attachment Solution
To address the challenges of lifting thin plates, rolls, panels, and similar materials, we provided Company
A with a highly suitable and cost-effective vacuum lifter configuration:
l Ensures safer and more uniform handling of large panels, reducing the risk of damage that may occur
with mechanical clamps;
l Enhances precision positioning, especially during tank assembly and liner installation tasks;
l Reduces manual labor intensity and significantly improves operational efficiency and safety levels;
l Suction cup layout and quantity are customized based on the material type to achieve optimal gripping
force and stability.
This integrated solution ensures that the client can achieve stable, efficient, and low-risk lifting operations across
various working conditions
4. Project Implementation Process
Throughout the entire delivery process, we provided full-cycle support:
1. Technical Parameter Verification and Structural Compatibility Analysis
We reviewed the mechanical requirements and installation conditions based on the drawings and site photos provided by the client.
2. Fast Response and Professional Communication
We promptly explained the selection rationale, attachment compatibility, and safety level to the client's team.
3. Production, Quality Inspection, and Packaging
All equipment underwent strict testing and pre-assembly checks to ensure it could be installed immediately upon unpacking.
4. Logistics Arrangement
We coordinated transportation options and delivery schedules based on the client’s project timeline.
5. Project Outcomes and Client Feedback
The light-duty JIB crane combined with the vacuum lifting system brought significant improvements for the client:
l Greatly improved lifting efficiency: Tasks that previously required multiple workers can now be completed
by a single operator.
l Enhanced safety: Vacuum lifting significantly reduces the risk of material slippage and human error.
l Strong adaptability: Suitable for workpieces of various materials, sizes, and shapes without the need for
frequent attachment changes.
l Outstanding cost-effectiveness: Low investment cost, simple maintenance, and long service life.
l Improved user experience: The lightweight JIB design allows operators to handle lifting tasks with ease.
The client noted that the solution “greatly improved on-site efficiency and safety” and expressed interest in using
similar configurations for future projects.
The cooperation with Company A Tanks was not only a successful equipment delivery, but also a strong
demonstration of our capability in providing customized engineering solutions. It has offered a reliable
lifting foundation for their future projects and helped build an excellent reputation for us as we continue to
expand in the Australian market.
