INDUSTRIAL CAPABILITIES
Heavy Machinery Shifting & Unloading
Safe unloading, internal factory shifting, and precise positioning of heavy industrial machines, presses, and transformers.
MACHINERY SHIFTING & EQUIPMENT HANDLING
Safe Machinery Movement for Confined Factory Bays
Relocating heavy industrial machines inside operational manufacturing plants presents unique site constraints. Low ceiling clearances, narrow shop-floor corridors, overhead piping, and sensitive epoxy flooring frequently rule out the direct use of overhead or mobile cranes.
Since 2010, J.P. Crane Services and Prahladsingh Banesingh have specialized in complete, turnkey machinery handling. We coordinate the full process—from yard trailer offloading to maneuvering through restricted bay doors and executing precise foundation placement.
Deploying in-house 360-degree rotating skates, high-tonnage hydraulic toe jacks, heavy steel spreader plates, and certified rigging tackles, our skilled crew transfers multi-ton production machines with steady control and zero floor disruption.
APPLICATIONS & CAPABILITIES
Heavy Machinery Shifting for Industrial Sites
Practical handling solutions for factory expansions, machine installations, internal bay relocations, and utility positioning.
Trailer & Truck Offloading
Rigging and offloading bare or crated machinery from standard flatbeds, semi-low beds, and hydraulic multi-axle trailers in factory yards.
Internal Factory Movement
Maneuvering multi-ton equipment through restricted doorway openings, low-clearance bay gates, and narrow shop-floor production aisles.
Power Presses & Stamping Units
Specialized handling, tilting, and rolling of heavy mechanical stamping presses, hydraulic presses, and metal forming machinery.
CNC & Precision Tooling Centers
Smooth, vibration-controlled transfer of precision CNC machines, horizontal/vertical machining centers (VMCs), and toolroom grinders.
Transformers & Plant Utilities
Controlled shifting and positioning of heavy step-down transformers, HT/LT panels, industrial chillers, and compressor skids.
Foundation Lowering & Placement
Precise alignment over foundation pits, lowering onto anchor bolts, and initial leveling onto anti-vibration rubber pads.
IN-HOUSE SHIFTING INVENTORY
Tools Used for Machinery Shifting
When cranes cannot operate under low ceilings or within crowded factory aisles, shifting relies on purpose-built load skates, rotating trolleys, and robust packing. Our dedicated shifting inventory enables safe handling of high-tonnage machines across factory floors.
VERIFIED IN-HOUSE SHIFTING GEAR:
360° Rotating Trolley
Nylon Wheels
Used for controlled movement and positioning of heavy machinery during suitable internal shifting operations.
Big Trolley
Nylon Wheels
Used for supporting and moving heavy machinery during suitable internal shifting activities.
Hand Pallet
6-inch up/down working
Used for suitable material and equipment handling within accessible industrial work areas.
Wooden Packing
6 ft and 2 ft/3 ft sizes
Used for machinery support, packing and positioning according to site requirements.
M.S. Steel Cage Packing
Industrial Support
Used for suitable industrial packing, protection and handling requirements during machinery movement and related site activities.
END-TO-END EXECUTION
Trailer Unloading to Final Foundation Placement
Machinery shifting requires systematic coordination from the moment the delivery transport enters the facility until the machine rests securely on its permanent base.
Key Steps in Factory Machine Relocation:
- Flatbed & low-bed trailer offloading
- Threshold & ramp crossing
- Restricted doorway maneuvering
- Steel plate floor protection
- Foundation pit positioning
- Lowering onto anchor bolts

STEP-BY-STEP WORKFLOW
How We Plan & Execute Machinery Shifting
A structured step-by-step approach ensures safe, damage-free transfer and accurate foundation placement.
Understand the Load
Review machine weight, center of gravity, dimensional footprint, lifting anchor points, and OEM transport instructions.
Check Site Access
Inspect factory entry gates, shutter heights, floor load ratings, trench covers, and aisle turning radius clearances.
Plan the Movement Route
Select the crane unloading location, roller transfer path, steel plate layout, and staging positions before the move begins.
Unload & Shift
Offload machinery safely from the trailer, lower onto rotating skates, and guide carefully along the designated plant route.
Position the Machine
Jack down over the foundation pit, align accurately with anchor bolts, set on mounting pads, and prepare for installation.
