[Case Study] Blickle Heavy-Duty Casters
Move a 1,200-ton structure without error! Specially designed and customized casters used.
As part of the lane expansion project, it was necessary to lower a bridge section weighing over 1,200 tons and measuring 53 meters in length gradually over several days. The company's experts came up with a method to lower the bridge section using casters while aligning it along the steel framework and contacted Wache, the distributor for Blickle. Blickle's development department devised a customized solution that met all requirements, including a low mounting height for the casters and a tread width of less than 200mm. This significantly improved the previously complex lowering method that used PTFE plates, and by using specially designed casters, the bridge section no longer got stuck. [Case Overview] ■ Challenges - There was a risk of the bridge section swaying if gaps formed between the panels and the steel beams. - If the lowering speed of the side sections differed slightly and the plates got stuck, work had to be interrupted. ■ Product Introduced - Specially designed caster "BSQ4FE-GSPO 152K" *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
