Machine Moving Skates | Material Handling Equipment While industrial machine moving generally involves cranes, pulleys and other similar traditional tools, Hovair Systems offers a different viewpoint to lifting and moving heavy machines – by lifting them from below using top quality machinery skates to do the work for you. Air Skates are not only safe and easy to use, they are also very cost-effective when considering they can be used over and over again.
Hovair Systems are a leading air skate manufacturer and have over 40 years experience in machine rigging via air caster systems.
Hovair Systems air bearing powered systems are designed to lift and move heavy loads and machines that are too heavy for conventional methods such as forklift trucks, overhead gantry and crane methods.
Machine Moving Skates | Material Handling Equipment Air powered (pneumatic) skate and moving systems work in a series of four or more and lift your load away from the floor much the same as a Hovercraft. Our products use the same principle: air film technology.
