Abstract

Jib Crane is a type of machinery used mainly to raise or lower materials or heavy objects and to carrying them to other places. It is used in construction and in the installation of large machines such as wind turbines and harbors, and is an essential component of integrated production processes. Because of the large loads carried by these cranes it became necessary to know their behavior before investment by studying their movements and studying the vibration of payloads and work to reduce them as much as possible and thus prolong the life of the crane components and increase their efficiency. Hence the need to design a control system to dampen load vibration to reduce the impact of dynamics affecting the parts of the crane. In this research, the mathematical model similar to the mechanical model of the crane was prepared and solving the model using MATLAB program, and then design a proportional integral differential controller for jib crane
