200 Lifts at Michigan Power Plant
At a Michigan power plant, Deep South utilized a 660-ton Demag CC-2800 (pictured here) to complete 200 lifts over an 8 month duration. This included multiple bag-house modules and duct sections, weighing up to 85 tons and measuring up to 85 feet in length. In addition, the 160-ton Tadano GR-1600XL-2 was used in the early phase of the project for erecting steel. Extreme temperatures brought 100 inches of snow during this time.

Pressed for Time
A vehicle manufacturer’s large stamping press—a massive machine used for shaping body panels—is online and operational thanks to efficient installation by Deep South. The three primary components included a 181-ton press bed (27.72’ L x 16.4’ W x 13.12’ H), 250-ton press crown (28.38’ L x 16.4’ W x 13.12’ H) and a 92-ton press slide (21’ x 10.83’ x 10.5’).

Multi-Module Mission
The heavy haul transport of oil and gas refinery components is always a challenge. Transporting 17 modules, all in the span of two weeks, raised the bar. The modules varied greatly in size and weight. Two of the modules exceeded 260,000 lbs., while 11 were more than 16’ high, three were more than 19’ high, and 13 had widths greater than 18’. Initially, the customer had trouble finding a company to move the modules to their site in Texas.

Facilitating a Refinery Column Placement in Tight Confines
Transporting, placing, and lifting a refinery column — one that is comparable to the height and weight of the Statue of Liberty — is a familiar challenge for heavy lift, heavy haul experts like Deep South. Maneuvering it around existing racks and systems adds another layer of complexity.
