Lakes is your experienced full service industrial moving company.
In this example
our 40 ton crane was contracted with our rigging specialist to place
this 30' wide, 16,000 pound press box. Utilizing spreader bars,
carriage bars, a 4 leg cable sling and a 20 ton snatch block the crane
was able to place the press box exactly where needed. The use of nylon
straps and wire rope to prevent any damage shows Great Lakes attention
to detail.
In this example
our 40 ton crane and 75 ton crane worked together to lift the bulk
storage vessel from horizontal position to a vertical position. Our
rigging specialist coordinated this lift between the 2 cranes.
This rigging
example shows our 40 ton crane lifting a new ice maker. The rigging
specialist had to guide the new icemaker into a very small area next to
very expensive and highly sensitive machinery, in addition to being
next to a web of high pressure ammonia pipes. This rigging example
shows the precision capabilities provided by Great Lakes Hoisting.
