SWTrans carried out grandiose transportation of 59 eliquation mashinenes from Yekaterinburg to Cherepovets. The gauge of the project was really impressive.
Cargo technical characteristics:
Cargo consisted of 59 segments.
Weight of one segment varied from 40 to 67 tons.
Maximum dimensions of the road train: 26,50 x 4,20 x 4,70 m
SWTrans has been executing this transportation from May till December, 2005. SWTrans became the first transport company which carried out such a difficult project by means of automobiles. Before it delivery of similar cargoes was always done by rail. This transportation was accomplished by means of 5 cars. Experts of the company have developed a detailed plan and a special loading system exclusively for this project. To pass the most difficult parts of the road it was often necessary to lower the suspension bracket to the maximum because of cargo height. The end of the autumn and the beginning of the winter increased the complexity and danger of the transportation. But even mountain relief did not lead to delays in delivery due to operative and accurate actions of our experts.
