ERGON PROBLEM SOLVED

Endurequip has recently completed building a set of specialised lifting and rotating units for Ergon energy in Brisbane. The units will greatly assist Ergon in the production of sub stations. They have been designed to lift and rotate the substation base to assist in the welding of the complex framework.

Ergon are longstanding clients of Endurequip having for some years used a set of Endurequip’s portable heavy vehicle hoists to lift completed substations (weighing up to 40 tonnes) when loading them onto low loaders to be transported to sites all over the South East.

When Ergon wanted to introduce a better, faster and safer way of fabricating their sub-station sub-frames, they came straight to Endurequip for the answer. Endurequip’s Engineer’s designed the special hoists from scratch, taking into consideration all aspects of the task and functions required .

Despite their large physical size, the hoists can be very easily and safely maneuvered into position to perform their lifting and rotating functions via Endurequip’s motorised wheel drive system. This system allows the hoists to be positioned by a single operator in a very safe and simple manner. The system is set to the desired operating speed to suit the
task being performed via a variable speed drive.

This is just one of many specialised jobs that endurequip has built for major clients with specific lifting problems. Endurequip has the expertise to design, build and commission on-site, all types of specialist hoists.
