○ Hydraulic Gantries

Heavy lifting systems that offer control and stability, even in confined spaces.

Hydraulic gantries are a safe, efficient way to lift and position heavy loads in applications where traditional cranes will not fit and permanent overhead structures for job cranes are not an option. When used with rail systems, hydraulic gantries also provide a means for moving and placing heavy loads.

○ Strand Jacks

Strand jack systems that provide fully controlled precise lifting.

The strand jack lifting technique originates from the concrete post tensioning principle. A strand jack can be considered a linear winch. In a strand jack, a bundle of steel cables or strands are guided through a hydraulic cylinder; above and below the cylinder are anchor systems with wedges that grip the strand bundle. By stroking the cylinder in and out while the grips are engaged in the anchors, a lifting or lowering movement is achieved.

○ Skidding System

A system comprised of a series of skid-shoes powered by hydraulic push-pull cylinders, traveling over a pre-constructed track.

Skidding techniques have been used for centuries. Enerpac has applied high-pressure hydraulics to create the Enerpac HSK Skidding Systems. The HSK skidding system is comprised of a series of skid-shoes powered by hydraulic push-pull cylinders, travelling over a pre-constructed track. A series of special PTFE coated blocks are placed on the skid-tracks to reduce friction. The skid shoes are connected by hoses to a hydraulic diesel driven power pack.

○ Self-Propelled Modular Unit (SPMU)

A unit with a slim design to transport large and heavy objects.

The Enerpac Self-Propelled Modular Unit features a minimised height and slim design, which make it very easy to operate in confined spaces. Each wheel unit has a steering as well as a lifting cylinder at its disposal. Wheel propulsion is established by hydraulic propulsion.

○ Synchronous Lifting System

High-pressure hydraulics combined with computer-controlled monitoring systems for precise lifting applications.

Enerpac has set the control standard with the new generation of their multi-functional synchronous lifting system: the EVO-System – the evolutionary result of more than 25 years experience in specialized hydraulic engineering and lifting technology using digitally controlled hydraulics.

The application possibilities are infinite with the EVO-system, powering interlinked hydraulic cylinders. The EVO-System has 9 work modes: Manual, Pre-Load, Automatic, Retract Fast, Depressurize, Tilting, Stage Lift, Weighing and Center of Gravity. Weighing and Center of Gravity determination are part of the EVO-W Weighing System.
