Energy companies often need to handle very heavy loads—pipe, tubing, components, pigging equipment, dies, tools and more— in manufacturing, warehousing and distribution processes that are challenging for conventional equipment and services. The specific expertise required in these operations is where Cisco-Eagle can help reduce the issues, increase storage flexibility and maintain safety.
The types of products stored, ranging from very heavy dies to large processing units aren't meant for conventional storage methods, including:
Let us help you design the right solutions.
Pipe handling systems are a specialty for Cisco-Eagle. We help companies design not only the right size/capacity conveyor, but all the loading, unloading, and machine integrations that accompany it. Since pipes and tubing are often long, heavy, bulky and unwieldy, the right handling solutions can multiply the efficiency (and safety) of an entire operation. In our experience, many manufacturing and processing centers suffer at their core from inadequate pipe handling systems.
We also assist with conveyor systems for chemical, oily and bulk loads. With deep roots in the oil industry, we have experience conveying drums, pallets, heavy loads and difficult applications of all types. These types of conveyor systems aren't typically serviced by companies with less understanding of the processes and potential issues. We have developed very heavy handling systems in many locations, ranging from processing centers to refineries to chemical treatment areas.
When the environment is demanding and the load is larger, special considerations must be made when specifying conveyors and loading/unloading methods. Our deep experience with these loads allows us to help you safely and effectively transport these loads through manufacturing or processing.
When it comes to lifting, turning and moving components, methods are just as critical as the storage systems. We have worked with many companies to improve these processes.
When it comes to manipulating components or other heavy loads, the options aren't as limited as you might think. If you were to look at the limited range of standard industrial lifts, many cannot handle the long, difficult tubes, sheets, components and other potentially difficult items that must be handled in heavier manufacturing or processing, but custom-designed lifts can help you deal with these issues. These lifts are built to your application needs, and can handle extremely long, bulky, unwieldy and difficult loads. They can also be integrated with heavy-duty conveyors, production equipment, platforms and more.
The same can be said for a broad range of cranes, hoists, balancers and other tools used to handle these types of loads. We help companies implement safer, better lifting solutions for extremely heavy items, but the key is integration into process, other handling, or production equipment.
The ability to access parts of a facility that are blocked by pipes, columns or other machinery is critical. Catwalks, mezzanines and platforms are ideal ways to achieve this. We offer indoor or outdoor modular and reconfigurable work platforms that can be disassembled and moved as facility needs and operations evolve. These platforms are also ideal for assembling in a tight, difficult space where a welded solution isn't possible to access, such as rooftops, pipe yards, cramped manufacturing spaces and similar areas.
When you have these types of challenging, non-standard issues with heavy-duty storage and handling, rely on Cisco-Eagle. We'll help you create exactly the right solution.
