Industrial Equipment Shifting & Positioning

Shifting heavy equipment through basements, confined plant rooms and narrow corridors to its final position — including vibration-free moves in live facilities.

Industrial Equipment Shifting & Positioning

Overview

Getting equipment from the unloading point to its foundation is often the hardest part of the job. IPN LIFTERS specialises in shifting heavy equipment through basements, confined plant rooms, narrow corridors and multi-level facilities using hydraulic skates, pipe rollers, chain pulley systems and skilled manpower. We have moved chiller compressors through a live data centre using purely manual, vibration-free methods to protect running servers, repositioned transformers under live overhead bus bars, and shifted chillers across plant rooms where floor loading demanded load-spreading plates. Whatever the constraint — headroom, door width, floor capacity or a facility that cannot stop running — we plan the route and execute the move with precision.

How We Deliver It

01

Route Assessment

Survey the movement path, verify floor loading, headroom and door clearances

02

Method Selection

Choose rollers, skates or manual chain-block methods based on load and site constraints

03

Controlled Movement

Execute the shift step-by-step with spotters monitoring clearances throughout

04

Final Positioning

Position the equipment on its foundation with precision alignment
