Hands-on model available during POWERGEN 2013 An interactive hands-on model makes it easy to see how it is possible to move megaton components such as feedwater heaters and casks in nuclear plants in hours instead of days. The model is in the AeroGo booth #3613 in the Nuclear Power International section of POWERGEN 2013. The […]
Air casters make it easy to move heavy machines and equipment without damaging floors. Moving heavy loads on wheeled casters or rollers, either routinely as part of production or just once in a while for maintenance or cleaning, can damage floors. Wheeled casters can wear grooves in concrete and epoxy floors, and moderately heavy loads […]
The largest and heaviest transformer in the world has been successfully moved in Chanzhou, China. The one million KVA/2000KV test reference transformer weighs over 700 tons, the equivalent of 600 automobiles. The mammoth unit was moved via an 800 ton capacity air caster transporter system. Built by AeroGo, Inc. based in Seattle, Washington U.S.A., the […]
This excerpt was originally presented to the ASME at POWER 2009 in Albuquerque, New Mexico. For more information or a to see the paper, visit www.asme.org and search for POWER2009-81184. ABSTRACT Power plants originally designed to be decommissioned at 20-30 years are extending their service life by removing/replacing major power plant components. This requirement is […]
Air caster transporters have proven efficient and reliable for multi-ton transformer moves. AeroGo continues to simplify adoption of vapor phase drying (vpd) technology for the transformer industry with its specialized line of Transformer Transporters. Proven over the past several years, units in the field have successfully handled capacities over 800 tons. “The unique requirements of […]
Air casters have proven efficient and safe in power plant heater moves Air casters are being utilized in the power industry to ergonomically and safely move gigantic feedwater heaters and casks with a significant reduction in downtime. Feedwater heaters, the large, heavy tanks that house heat exchangers, are used to pre-heat water for boilers and […]
A large amount of Decontamination and Decommissioning (D&D) operations are being conducted throughout the DOE Complex. D&D operations often use heavy equipment to lift or remove large heavy items during the decommissioning process. It is often difficult or impossible to get heavy equipment into these facilities to remove heavy items, forcing workers to resort to […]
