New Press Installation

After the press – manufactured in Southern Europe – was delivered in individual components, we handled the transfer of the components using a 190-metric-ton Sefiro self-propelled forklift.

In a “fly-in, fly-out” transfer, the press components were moved directly from the truck onto heavy-duty loading platforms and immediately taken over by the Sefiro self-propelled forklift. This allowed the components to be efficiently transported to their final assembly location without the need for additional lifting equipment.

A 380-metric-ton lifting frame was used for the subsequent assembly. With it, we carried out the rough assembly of all press components precisely and on schedule.

Particularly noteworthy were the time-saving lateral transport of the heavy-duty components from the truck unloading area to the installation site using the extremely maneuverable Sefiro self-propelled vehicle, as well as the detailed time management coordinated in advance. Thanks to careful planning and efficient logistics, all work steps were carried out smoothly and without delays.
