Some Important Benefits Of Using Machinery Sliders?

Benefits. Machinery Sliders are:

Very safe and easy to use
Very inexpensive compared to dollies or skates
Greatly reduce the risk of machinery tip-over
Vastly improve the safety of the machinery moving process

Shipping Containers, Loading / Unloading / The Voyage

Loading Shipping Containers: Going over dock-plates when loading shipping containers make it a breeze.
And since the Machinery Sliders are inexpensive, you can just push the machinery into the container and leave the Sliders in place and secure the machine.

Tall & Heavy Machinery

Tall & Top Heavy: These types of machinery and equipment are especially subject by nature to a much higher-risk to move. This is where Machinery Sliders out-perform traditional dollies and skates by lowering the risk of tip-over.Because Machinery Sliders are a very-low profile tool (3/8″ to 1″ high depending on type), lowering the tip-point is the greatest factor in preventing tip-over for machinery that is top-heavy.When height-clearance is a factor, even low-profile dollies and skates may not be enough. That extra couple of inches that Machinery Sliders give can swing the profit margin from losing money to saving money.

Cheap Enough To Leave Behind

Save Time, Money and Possible Injury: As machinery movers and riggers we all know the difficulty of moving a large heavy piece of machinery into a shipping container and having the thought of “how are we going to get our dollies or skates out from behind and under that machine?”With Machinery Sliders that is not an issue. Many time we have done just that — left them where they were. Machinery Sliders are cheap enough to leave behind. We have not only left them behind in shipping containers, but on aluminum flatbed trucks, vans and in short term storage.The short term storage is a good one, especially when using the round multi-directional Machinery Sliders. You just chain or strap your forklift to the unit and move it to the dock and it is ready to load.

Safety & Injury

Reducing The Risk of Injury While Reducing Job Cost: Work done safely, without injury, while making a decent profit, is normally considered a successful job. Machinery Sliders contribute to these factors as mentioned above.

Many machinery movers and riggers have all the styles of Machinery Sliders in each gang box and are used on a daily bases. If you have never tried them, give them a shot. Remember, they may not be a perfect fit in every situation, but they surely are in most.
