Air film movers

26 May 2015

Since the 1970s Solving has been providing Air Film Movers to various power transformer manufacturers to enable these industrial giants to be moved, efficiently and safely.

 

Transformers weighing up to 500t are frequently moved on Solving equipment. The latest Movers have sophisticated drives and controls using programmable computers and guidance systems to minimise risk and maximise safety.

A single operator, using a radio controlled remote handset, can position a Mover under one or more pallets carrying a 400t transformer, rotate it, steer it and manoeuvre the load to its desired location.

The same principle is regularly applied to heavy loads throughout industry, and Solving’s latest developments incorporate automatic guidance, laser detection of obstructions and a variety of safety systems.
