This photo shows two transporters in the final assembly phase within the Doerfer plant. The transporters measure 6 1/2 feet wide by 12 foot long deck with an additional 15" sticking out one end for the propane tanks and computer display screen. The transporters, whether operating singularly or in tandem, are controlled by a wireless hand held controller. These transporters are each rated at 110,000 pounds capacity. They have a deck height of 18-1/2" in the lowered position, with a total lift stroke of 6 inches. These particular transporters have two sources of power. A propane conversion gas engine drives a generator which in turn powers the wheel motors hydraulic power pack for the fluid suspension system. The alternate power source is an umbilical line to shore power as a back up and for use when entering a clean room environment. |
