Collector rings offer a well-rounded approach to complex lifts. LGH recently provided Thackray Crane Rental with a collector ring, slings, and shackles to complete a lift for the Aston Tank Farm.
Designed to streamline the lifting of large domes and circular tanks, with a 150-ton capacity and a 16-point crown, the collector ring is the perfect piece of equipment for a job like this. Learn more about collector rings or get a quote today.
If you’re moving heavy equipment through tight spaces or need to rotate a load with precision, rotating machine skates — also known as crazy skates — are one of the most versatile tools you can use.
In our latest YouTube video, “What are Crazy Skates? Rotating Machine Skates for Moving Heavy Equipment,” LGH’s Aaron Orsak walks through what makes these heavy duty dollies so effective for industrial rigging and equipment moves.
Whether it be railway maintenance, an old bridge requiring repair, or solar farm construction, many projects rely on federal funding. Currently, several projects face funding uncertainty, resulting in long delays or shutdowns, even after a project previously got the green light.
In this blog post, we discuss the hidden costs of funding freezes along with the advantages of working with LGH in times of uncertain federal funding.
