jib arm

A jib arm is a long, horizontal extension attached to a crane or camera crane that allows equipment like cameras or loads to be moved smoothly through space. It functions like a mechanical "arm," giving operators the ability to reach high or distant areas while maintaining stability. Commonly used in film production, construction, and heavy lifting, the jib arm can pivot and rotate, enabling precise control over movement and angles without needing to reposition the entire machine. This flexibility enhances safety and efficiency during complex operations.
