When Yamazaki Mazak was faced
with the problem of moving heavy
machinery from one end of nine
loading bays to the other,Movetech
UK, the new name for British
Turntable, came up with a simple
and cost-effective solution - the 5 x
3m, 20 tonne capacity wheeled
platform can be attached to and
steered by a forklift truck.
The problem lay in negotiating large machining equipment in one of the central bays, restricting access between the bays at either side.
"Movetech UK came up with the ideal solution - a simple wheeled transporter fitted with a tow handle at one end so that machines can be pulled manually to the right loading bay ready for dispatch," says Dave Jones, shipping manager.
