Moving Walkway:
A conveyorized pit cover is provided for safe passage along the length of the bed. The antislip tread prevents slipping. The conveyor attaches to both sides of the gantry for “free” power
and moves along with the gantry and across the pit floor.
 
Push button controls were added as well as Savage RPC (Ram Position Control) stroke controls for accurate positional stopping setpoint. A
new festoon style cabling system was wired to each accessory. Accessories were modified in 2012 from
shaft-purposed to flat bar (gear rack) style. New hydraulic pumps/electric motors were added to the
accessories in 2012.
 
The 50 ft. bed is the longest of those of commercially made, which provides the benefit of crane loading long
bars to one side of the gantry. It is also rare in that it was built to take 1000 tons over its full length.
 
MACHINE WAS PRESERVED AND PACKAGED FOR RELOCATION TO ANOTHER PLANT WITHIN THE COMPANY, BUT NEVER SHIPPED
