LTR Rigging and Hauling

“Our Business is Moving Yours”

Call 1-800-THE–HOOK

A 70-ton transformer that had to be moved out of the manufacturing plant and loaded onto a specialized trailer was handled with care by the LTR crew. Utilizing our Heavy Duty forklift to move it into position, our Gantry Lift System took over to load it onto the trailer. This coordination of equipment is an LTR specialty. We are equipped to do what ever is necessary on any job.

When a job presents an unusual shaped piece of equipment to move, LTR has the expertise and equipment to handle it. Here is a expansion joint for the Manhattan Bridge that had to be lifted onto a specialized trailer.

It measured 40’ l x 8’ w x 2’ h and weighed 40 tons. It was no problem for our Gantry Lift System to handle.

When called upon to move a 60-ton press during a whole-plant move, LTR utilized the expertise of its rigging department to the fullest.

The press is first lifted through the roof of the old plant with a 350-ton crane, transported to the new location the up righted with our Gantry Lift System and lowered into its new base with our 60-ton forklift. During this 3-day job, LTR repeated the process many times until all the press equipment was safely in the new plant.

Moving a CNC machine can be a delicate operation. It has to be moved carefully to avoid any damage. LTR off-loaded and set this machine into place with minimal downtime and no damage at all.
