This modular skidding platform is purpose-built for precision movement of heavy cargo during rigging, installation, and construction tasks in confined or restricted environments.
| Model | Dimensions, mm (BxLxH) | Weight of the moved object, t | Nominal pushing force, tf | Assembled pushing element, pcs | Number of sliding paths, pcs | Weight, kg |
| SS600 | 2660х320х283 | 600–1200 | 20×4 | 4 | 12 | 355 |
The system ensures efficient horizontal displacement of cargo along modular sliding paths and is commonly utilized in complex lifting and positioning operations alongside gantry lifts, jacking masts, rotating turntables, and industrial push-pull systems.
The SKAT-1 SS 600 skidding system is frequently applied in:
- Ship and hull section transportation on shipyards
- Lateral unloading of heavy machinery from railcars or trailers
- Bridge span installation and horizontal structural positioning
- Movement of equipment under low-clearance structures
- Controlled relocation of industrial units in confined spaces
Advantages of the SKAT-1 SS 600 heavy-duty skidding system
This skid-based transport platform offers unlimited travel distance via track extension using modular sliding sections. The system's low-profile height of 283 mm makes it ideal for tight-access zones.
Key technical benefits:
- Heavy-duty push beam designed to withstand rugged terrain and uneven foundations
- Self-resetting pushing mechanism—no manual repositioning required
- Minimal maintenance: only Teflon slide pads are consumable and easy to replace
- Rapid manual or mechanized deployment—no cranes or overhead lifting needed
- Lightweight, portable slide elements with handles and eyebolts for ergonomic relocation
- Interoperability with other SKAT systems (e.g., SKAT-2) for combined maneuvering
The SKAT-1 SS 600 skidding system is an essential tool for engineers and rigging professionals performing craneless heavy equipment movement where stability, control, and structural safety are paramount.
