Hi guys,
I'm working on a circus arts project where I am designing a steel structure that is to be illuminated and controlled via DMX protocol. The steel structure consists of 1" pipe sections of various lengths, connected together using pipe connectors (Kee Klamps). The structure will look like...
Hey kjoiner! Thanks for suggesting the Spiralift. Coincidentally, I called them last week to inquire about their lift system! I've known them for a while since I sent my CV to them when I got out of school back in 2008 and was living in Montreal. Anyhow, very cool products, but they are quite...
Hi guys, thank you so much for the help. Here is a PDF showing both body types assembly setups.
On the bottom portion of the drawing is how we assemble the upside-down bodies. The floor, sidewalls, tailgate and head board are all preassembled upstream in the shop, and this welding table is for...
Sorry guys, I'm not providing enough detail here :-). The table does need to move during assembly to provide a nice ergonomic position for the welders. For the upright bodies, they will work at 12-24" most of the time and then raise the table up to 48-60" to work under the body. For the...
We have two different kinds of body, one that is assembled upright with the welding table set at 12-24" height, and another kind that is assembled upside-down at a height of ±72". See CAD drawing in attachment.
Thanks for the help...
Nescius,
I've taken a look at many commercial garage lifts, 2-post, 4-post, scissor lift, etc., however, one thing I forgot to mention is that we assemble the dump truck bodies upside-down on the table, so the table has to fit inside the truck body, hence the 80" width (smaller than our...
Hi guys,
I'm currently working on an ajustable welding platform that is 100" long, 80" wide, that needs to adjust in height from 12" to 72" above ground, and must be able to support a load of 10,000 lbs. This platform is used to weld dump truck bodies and the welders need to be able to work...
