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.
