Problem

Tank fit up system and growing line for 700,000 lb vessels.

COMPLEXITY

LEVEL 2

Approach

Custom turning roll fit up assemblies designed to manipulate the vessel forward, back, left-right, up-down, and turn the vessel for circumferential welding. The fit up assemblies are mounted on powered trolleys which ride on rails to allow for axial travel, aiding both material fit up and safe handling.

Result

Simplified fit up process that:

  • Increased throughput
  • Reduced crane dependency
  • Improved worker safety and ergonomics
