Engineered Rigging unveiled its new Power Slide System, which it says delivers a safe, simple and efficient way to move overweight, oversized loads in tight quarters.
Comprised of skid shoes, which are powered by hydraulic push/pull cylinders over high-strength flat-topped track, Power Slide was created to move components such as turbines, generators, transformers, vessels and motors, especially when space limitations and cost preclude using a crane.
The system’s high-capacity design and configuration allow it to move loads ranging from 50 to 2,000+ tons, withstanding daily use and extreme loads. Power Slide’s low track height reduces jacking requirements enhancing load and project safety.
Engineered Rigging’s novel flat-topped track makes the Power Slide easier to set up, use and maintain than traditional jack-and-slide systems. It’s also less expensive to fabricate, the company said.
