Rigging teams solving problems

Out of the box rigging

Using a crane and conventional rigging equipment may not be the most cost effective route to getting the job done in time and on budget. In some cases, what may seem impossible or overly expensive can be solved by employing unusual services like helicopters to perform very high lifts or where the lifting radius is extreme. We solve problems and get the job done. Contact us for extreme rigging or complex rigging or even if the rigging cost seems very high, we have a solution for your requirement.

Machine Moving and Rigging

Safely Navigating the Challenge of Heavy Machinery Relocation

Moving heavy machinery is a complex and demanding task that requires careful planning, specialized equipment, and skilled operators. Whether relocating a single piece of equipment within a facility or transporting it to a new location, the process of machine moving and rigging involves a series of well-coordinated steps to ensure both the safety of personnel and the integrity of the machinery being moved. There are essential equipment requirements and safety measures that must be adhered to during the operation to achieve a safe relocation.

Planning and Assessment

Before initiating any machine moving and rigging operation, thorough planning and assessment are crucial. A team of experienced professionals, including engineers and rigging experts, must evaluate the machinery, the path of movement, and the destination site. Key factors to consider include the machine’s weight, dimensions, center of gravity, and potential obstacles along the route. This preliminary analysis will form the basis for developing a comprehensive moving strategy.

Specialized Equipment

To execute a successful machine moving and rigging operation, a range of specialized equipment is essential. These may include:

 

Mobile Cranes & Crane Trucks

Hydraulic cranes with varying load capacities are the workhorses of machine moving. They can lift and transport heavy equipment efficiently and come in different types, such as mobile cranes, crawler cranes, and tower cranes.

Forklifts

Forklifts are ideal for handling machinery that requires short-distance movement or repositioning within a facility. They are particularly useful for indoor operations where space may be limited.

Skates and Rollers

These equipment pieces help in moving heavy machinery smoothly across flat surfaces, minimizing friction and making it easier to navigate tight spaces.

Hydraulic Jacks

Hydraulic jacks can lift machinery slightly to insert skates or rollers underneath, facilitating the movement process.

Transport Trailers

Heavy-duty transport trailers are necessary for

 over longer distances. Depending on the weight and dimensions of the equipment, specialized trailers such as flatbed trailers, lowbeds, and extendable trailers may be required.

Safety Measures

Safety is of paramount importance in any machine moving and rigging operation. Here are some essential safety measures that must be implemented:

Training and Certification

All personnel involved in the operation, including riggers, crane operators, and forklift drivers, should be well-trained and certified for their respective roles.

Safety Gear

Proper personal protective equipment (PPE), such as hard hats, steel-toed boots, gloves, and high-visibility clothing, should be worn by everyone present at the site.

Secure Rigging

Rigging equipment, including slings and shackles, must be inspected regularly and used in accordance with the manufacturer’s guidelines. Adequate padding and protection should be provided to prevent damage to the machinery during lifting and movement.

Clear Communication

Effective communication between team members is vital to avoid accidents. Hand signals and radios can help maintain clear communication between operators during the operation.

Permits and Regulations

Compliance with local regulations and obtaining necessary permits, especially for oversize or overweight loads, is essential to ensure legal and safe transportation.
