Propolift Machinery Co., Ltd. is one of the most experienced manufacturers and suppliers of heavy forklift with high lifting jib in China. We are committed to providing high quality custom service and OEM service to global clients. Welcome to buy durable heavy forklift with high lifting jib at competitive price from our factory.
This heavy forklift with high lifting jib is designed for the loading, transportation, and installation of heavy machinery within industrial facilities. Based on an 18-ton heavy-duty forklift chassis, the machine is equipped with a carriage-mounted high lifting jib attachment that provides an elevated lifting point for handling oversized equipment that requires both mobility and positioning accuracy.
This industrial forklift with high lifting jib is widely used in machinery manufacturing plants, metalworking workshops, and equipment installation projects where production machines need to be moved between workstations or positioned during commissioning. Compared with lifting solutions that rely on fixed crane coverage or separate transport equipment, a high lift forklift with jib allows lifting and transportation to be completed using a single unit within the workshop.
Typical applications include the handling of heavy lathes, CNC machines, generators, compressors, molds, presses, and other large industrial equipment. Jib capacity, lifting height, hook configuration, and other specifications can be adapted to suit different operating conditions and project requirements.

From Configuration to Delivery
This heavy forklift with high lifting jib is developed for applications where industrial equipment needs to be transported and positioned within the same operation. Built on an 18-ton chassis, the machine combines the mobility of a heavy forklift with the additional lifting capability provided by a carriage-mounted jib attachment. It is commonly used for handling machinery such as lathes, CNC equipment, generators, compressors, molds, and other oversized components during loading, relocation, or installation work.
Because operating conditions differ from site to site, each project is reviewed according to factors such as load dimensions, lifting height, travel routes, aisle widths, and installation procedures. Standard configurations include a reinforced carriage assembly, heavy-duty mast structure, hydraulic clamp disc braking system, wide-track chassis, industrial lighting, and anti-slip access steps. Optional features such as solid tires, warning devices, cabin upgrades, camera systems, and customized lifting arrangements can be incorporated when required.
Prior to delivery, every unit is subjected to functional checks and operating tests covering the hydraulic, lifting, braking, and driving systems. Technical support is available throughout the process, from application assessment and configuration recommendations to spare parts supply and after-sales assistance after the equipment is placed into service.
