Light-weight,
aluminum, modular system for transporting full pallets of brick into the
kiln and under the Bricking Machine scaffold.
Problem:
The transportation of brick is critical to keep the masons supplied
with the material in a timely manner. To move a pallet of brick up-kiln
in small kilns where forklift access is prohibited requires a cost in
time and manual labor or a custom solution. The challenge of transporting
brick up-kiln will depend mostly on the size of the kiln and the condition
of the surface of the kiln. The smaller the kiln, the smaller the access
under the bricking machine scaffolding system. The more limited the
access the more difficult it is to get brick past the machine to the
bedding crew. Furthermore, it is advantageous to transport the brick
as a pallet rather than individually not only for obvious speed advantages,
but to avoid potential damage to the individual brick. This problem
can be addressed by specialized transporting equipment such as the Port-A-Trac.
Solution:
With a Port-A-Trac, 2 men can easily push a 4,000 LB pallet of brick
up the kiln and under a Bricking Machine Scaffold.
Justification:
Features:
-
Accommodates multiple transfer carts along the same track, each capable
of holding 4,000 LBS
-
Optional power winch available
-
Brake system to hold carts anywhere on track
-
Build to any length - modular aluminum track comes in 3 meter and
1.5 meter sections
