Schwandner deploys special trafo bed for transformer transport
Premium Spedition with powerful equipment is the slogan of P. Schwandner Logistik + Transport GmbH. The company therefore also expects this powerful equipment from its suppliers. "Broshuis is a powerful and reliable partner for us," says Peter Schwandner, owner and founder. "In addition to quality trailers, we can implement our innovations and modernisation together with Broshuis".
For transporting heavy transformers, Broshuis also helped with providing a solution. P. Schwandner Logistik + Transport GmbH is a major player in the field of transporting heavy and large transformers throughout Europe. With its diverse and modern fleet, Schwandner can transport any transformer. This makes the company a stable factor when it comes to transport.
To transport the transformer from SGB Smit and then drop it off themselves at the final location, Broshuis has designed a special "trafobed" together with Schwandner that fits into the 3 bed 5 low loader combinations in their fleet. Using heavy cranes, the transformer is lifted onto the special low bed, after which it is skidded off the low loader at the site. P. Schwandner Logistik + Transport GmbH currently has 5 of these combinations in their fleet.
The low loader dolly combinations are fitted with a normal bed as standard, but can be exchanged with the so-called "trafo bed". This makes the use of the low loader multifunctional.
The transformer low bed is equipped with 4 cylinders to raise the low bed on-site to the correct height with respect to the foundation on which the transformer is to be placed. These cylinders make the bed completely level and stable so that the transformer can be safely unloaded. This is done by lifting the transformer, placing rails under it that are aligned with the rails on site, then lowering the transformer and using a winch to ""skid" the transformer to the site. In this way, P. Schwandner Logistik + Transport GmbH can do this work carefully, safely and efficiently.
