Mixing Air and Water? Waste water treatment requires aeration. While the air itself is lightweight, the equipment to push the air through the water demands substantial machinery, like the centrifugal blower shown right. The casing alone can weigh thousands of pounds. To move these massive blowers, you need a versatile heavy lifting crane – a Wallace Tri-Adjustable Portable Gantry Crane. Our cranes can easily move the equipment right where you need it. View the model as a 3D PDF! Published 1/10/010

5-Axis, 4-Axis, 2 1/2D? How Current is Your Technology? No matter what level your manufacturing capabilities are, Wallace Cranes can help. If the weight of your end product created with 5-axis machining is on the order of ounces, then a Wallace Crane can be used to help install and perform routine maintenance on the tooling. For less precise and heavier applications, out cranes can lift WIP and fixturing. At Wallace we have been using our own equipment since we started in 1954. We have gone through a number of technology changes. As we retool, we rely on our own equipment to create the tooling for the next generation of cranes. View the model as a 3D PDF! Published 5/4/09

High Tech Heaving Lifting? Even though the goal of nanotechnology is to get equipment to build itself, you have to do heavy lifting first. For clean-room conditions you need vacuum pumps and sealed chambers, neither of which is lightweight. So before you build small, you have to first think big, and use Wallace Portable cranes to do the heavy lifting. It helps to remember that even though the equipment is heavy, it must still be accurately and smoothly placed. And we can guarantee that anything you place will have to be moved. The iterative design process as indicated with the recursive models indicates normal experimental dependencies. Change just one thing and you end up starting over. View the model as a 3D PDF!
