Heavy haulage of a 38-tonne CNC vertical turning machine
Pittler T&S GmbH in Dietzenbach and Präwema Antriebstechnik GmbH in Eschwege are both part of the DVS Technology Group and manufacture high-precision machinery for metalworking.
Speedlog transported a CNC vertical turning machine from Pittler's product range from Dietzenbach to Eschwege. The machine weighed 38,000 kilograms and measured 750 × 370 × 360 centimetres. At Präwema, it is intended for in-house component manufacturing.
“Projects like this involve much more than heavy haulage itself. The key is precise coordination between crane operations, specialist machinery handling and loading.”
– Grigo SImsek
Specialist machinery handling and installation
In addition to heavy haulage, the assignment included moving the machine out of the production facility in Dietzenbach, professionally loading and securing it on the low-loader, and unloading and positioning it at its destination.
For internal machinery movements, the specialist handling team used a flatbed platform in Dietzenbach and a heavy-duty roller system in Eschwege. Coordination between the handling team, mobile cranes and low-loader ran smoothly at both locations.
