Speciality Material Handling – FCO Clamp Removal

A client in the tube and pipe industry required a custom solution to remove heavy tooling which was inaccessible, located deep within a machine’s structure. Rockford Engineering Works met with the client at their facility to review the application. A custom articulating lifting device was determined to be the most effective solution for the unique circumstances. Some features of the lifting device included:

• a pneumatic lift at the end of the boom to allow engagement with the tooling and provide the lift required for removal
• one receiver mounted to the equipment and another on the floor to provide secure mounting for the device
