🚨 Ever seen an Airtrack used like this? 🚨
When we saw this converted air track with it's drill rig swapped for forks/winch, we knew it was the answer to a persistent underground challenge - space (or lack thereof). Petts Mclean Industries have integrated this asset into our hire fleet to assist underground operations with a few issues:
🛢️ Longwall tailgate logistics - Instead of manual handling or where LHD use is restricted, we can now use this to safety manoeuvre items when space around "Tin Can" supports is limited
🚚 Belt road access - Bulk roller change outs have always been a manual handling hazard. This unit allows a pallet of rollers to be delivered directly to the work area. Furthermore, the air tracks stable platform and power can be utilised to assist in the precise lifting & positioning of the belt itself
💡 Beyond moving supplies through tight spots underground, imagine this fitted with a high volume water cannon for efficient under belt cleaning. All existing air track articulation functions are available for use
Its potential is limited only by your imagination, and we're ready to collaborate on adapting this robust asset to solve your unique challenge.
