When moving or installing printing machines, time is frequently of the essence. Rigging services put an emphasis on effectiveness and efficiency to save downtime and expedite the functionality of your printing press.
Risk Mitigation
Professionals in rigging assess possible hazards and create plans to reduce them. This includes backup measures in case there are unanticipated difficulties with the relocation.
Logistics Strategy
The optimal method for disassembly, transport, and reassembly is the specialty of rigging services. This includes figuring out the best routes, tools, equipment, and employees needed for a smooth move and successful project.
Our Press Rigging and Heavy Equipment Moving Capabilities
Press rigging includes moving heavy machinery and other large printing industry objects with specialty rigging equipment attached to a crane, jacks, or other forms of lifting device. Once secured, the printing machinery is then hoisted onto pallets, skids, or specially constructed carriers and then put onto trucks for movement to another location.
It’s worth noting that our experienced printing press movers also provide services even when you’re only moving heavy manufacturing or printing equipment throughout your own facility.
Choosing a Printing Press Rigging Partner
There are significant factors to consider while preparing for your heavy equipment shipping and relocation tasks. Partnering with reputable printing press movers will make the task come together easier. With the help of professional printing industry rigging partners, you can ensure safe and effective results. To help prepare you for this type of project, there are some things to remember.
- Prepare a list of all printing equipment to be relocated, including the make and model. This will help the press rigging machinery movers identify the type of rigging equipment needed, as well as the number of vehicles required to transport your equipment.
- Before your scheduled move, confirm with your printing press movers that insurance and other essential permissions are in place. These specifications may vary based on the type of equipment being transported and the mode of shipment.
- Prepare for the move in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations. This may require draining the oil and other fluids, disconnecting wires and hoses, fastening loose pieces, and removing sensitive electronic components. Prior to shipping, equipment that cannot be exposed to the weather should also be covered. Our millwright services team can assist with this portion of the project.
You can trust that the Murphy Rigging team follows safety practices and procedures to deconstruct, load, transport, and reassemble your equipment safely.
