Huge Chain System Aids Kiln Drying
NEW MATH
5+5=more than 10
In the case of Hoist-O-Matic automatic scaffolding, 5 years in development and 5 in field testing equal versatility.
Overhead and winter protection for year round work comfort is provided from the same basic components. Ramping, useable by all construction crews on the site, is also basic and easily erected to move equipment and materials to all levels, eliminating the need for forklifts and an elevator and operators, up to four stories.
Completely stable on any type of terrain, it can be built in increments of 4%", over hills, areaways and through canopies. Masons work at a constant waist level; materials and scaffolding never need to leave the wall until it is topped out.
You have to use it to believe it. Write or call for more information.
Loops of chains installed inside cement drying kilns play a vital part in mass producing the millions of tons of cement needed to supply the nation's construction industry. More than 400 tons of kiin chain, believed to be the largest system of its kind, are installed in this Allis-Chalmers kiln at the Hannibal, Mo., plant of Universal Atlas Cement. The chains make possible accelerated, even drying of the wet slurry mixture as it is fed into the kiln for dry processing into powdered cement.
Difficult Terrain adapts to any type, and remains constantly stable. Ramping easy access to any level by all crews on the site.
Overhead Protection easily installed for high rise construction, masonry can begin after pouring reaches fifth floor.
Minimize the danger of freezing mortar & concrete. Accelerates a quick set.
