Balance Box

A balance box, is a critical component used in cranes, particularly of the cantilever type. It serves to counterbalance the weight of the jib (the projecting arm of the crane) and the load it carries. This box is typically filled with heavy materials such as concrete or metal to achieve the necessary counterbalancing effect. By balancing the weight of the jib and the load, the balance box helps stabilize the crane and ensures safe and efficient lifting operations.
