EQUIPMENT DATA SHEET - Lift-N-Lock Gantry System

The Lift-N-Lock Gantry is a mobile, self-propelled, variable height, hydraulic lifting frame. It is primarily
controlled from a remote, self-contained power module that is positioned away from the Gantries. The
Gantries are designed to be operated on steel plates or skid tracks.

The control module incorporates a diesel fueled engine as the primary power source. All hydraulic
valves and controls for all cylinders and the propel system are operated manually. The pressure

Key Features of the system include:

Cam Lock Safety System The cam lock safety system automatically holds suspended loads
indefinitely, when engaged with or without the assistance of lift cylinders. This is done
mechanically with eccentric cam locks on the boom. This system allows the gantries to be locked
into place at any extended position without leaving the lift cylinder pressurised and are
automatically held open hydraulically when the gantry booms are being either raised or lowered.
The locks are engaged when the control lever is returned to neutral or if there is ever a loss of
system pressure.
Telescopic Boom The telescopic boom is made of square steel tubing with solid steel bars
attached on two sides. The heavy steel walls and boom overlap ensures that the lift cylinders will
not be hindered by any side loading forces and protect the cylinders from side loading pressures
as well as damage to the chromed rods.

The Beam Header Plate The beam header plate that firmly holds the lifting beam is mounted on
a horizontal spherical bearing. This allows full 360 degree rotation and side to side oscillation.

Boom Lift Cylinders The boom lift cylinders are power up and down, and are designed to
eliminate the use of hose reels. Double locking valves are built into the lower base of the cylinders
and are not subject to any hydraulic hose or tubing failures. All sections are allowed to operate at
the same hydraulic pressure and ensure that the gantries cannot be overloaded. If a load is over
the specified capacity, the system will simply not allow the gantry to lift the load.

Planetary Self-Propel System The planetary self-propel system is integrally built into each
housing and is operated from the control module. This allows the gantry to be propelled on flat
plate or simple skid track. This drive system can easily be disengaged to become free-wheeling for
tip downs or load centering.

Electronic Monitoring System:

The Lift-N-Lock system is fitted with electronic monitoring system that has been developed to offer a
means of accurately establishing the position and condition of a load in real time to enable the rapid
response to, and correction of an uneven or skewing load.
Inclinometer The inclinometer analyses the angle of each jack and the stability display shows the
position of the top of the jack relative to the centre point at ground level as a percentage of the X &
Y tolerance previously set.
Digital Stroke Display The digital stroke display shows the stroke of each jack in millimetres.
Traverse Display The traverse LEDs show the position of the jack pairs relative to each other, in
25mm increments.
