What is transported?
The service covers heavy and giant electrical transformers and generators moved to power stations, factories, and project sites, with each load handled by its weight, dimensions, and center of gravity.
- Electrical transformers of different ratings
- Backup power generators
- Power plant and electrical project equipment
Why do these loads need special study?
Transformers are concentrated-weight loads with a defined center of gravity, and tilt limits must not be exceeded during loading and transit. This requires a suitable axle configuration and a planned loading and securing sequence.
- Sensitive center of gravity
- Concentrated weight in a small footprint
- Tilt limits respected during loading
Data needed before pricing
Accurate data determines the price range and trailer selection, and includes the following.
- Actual weight from the spec plate
- Dimensions (length, width, height)
- Center of gravity when documented
- Lifting plans and approved lifting points
- Pickup, delivery, and route details
Loading and securing
The unit is lifted with a suitable crane from its approved lifting points, then secured on the lowbed with weight spread over the axles and lateral movement prevented.
- Using approved lifting points
- Spreading weight over the axles
- Securing against lateral movement
Route considerations
Concentrated-weight loads are affected by bridges, turns, and gradients. The route and permits are reviewed before dispatch when required.
- Bridge weights reviewed
- Turns and clearances checked
- Permits and escort when needed
Execution stages
The request moves through load review, configuration selection, route study, and execution, with each stage coordinated with the client.
- Reviewing unit data
- Selecting the lowbed and equipment
- Studying route and permits
- Loading, transport, and delivery
