Helps move heavy loads
October 1st 2006

Fabricated steelwork producer, Robinsons Construction, is using three MasterPusher machines from MasterMover to push rail bogeys laden with up to 10t of steelwork through the various stages of fabrication.

Engineering Director, Roger Gillanders comments: "The MasterMover machines make transfer of steelwork around the fabrication shop much easier."

Robinsons Construction process around 500t of structural steelwork every week. Spread across a series of fabrication shops, Robinsons needed a simple method of pushing steelwork through the fabrication process and between workshops. MasterMover designed and engineered a bespoke coupling which enables quick and easy attachment of the MP50-400 pushing machine to any of the rail bogeys on site. The result is a cost effective, safe and efficient means of moving heavy loads of steel through the manufacturing process.
