Aluminium Platform Transporters for Easy Load Moving of Regular Shaped Loads

Aluminium Platform Transporters

Standard size aluminium air transporter with option push handle.

Like all Rotair Systems products, aluminum load moving transporter pallets (aka air pallets) offer a flexible and easy way for moving your regular shaped loads by harnessing the power and energy of simple compressed air.

Similar to the standard air pallet, platform transporters are an alternative to multiple module systems. These transporters are the perfect solution to moving heavy loads with fixed widths and lengths.

Aluminum platform transporters can be customised to your specifications for size and lifting capacities. Sizes start around a metre square.

The main advantage of their air pallet cousins, is that there is no control handle - handle shown is optional - and the air flow controls are located on an inlet manifold at the rear of the unit. Each air bearing has an air flow control valve on the manifold, making adjustments very easy and from one central place.

Also shown is the underside view highlighting the onboard air bearings. The required weight and lifting capacity will determine both the size of the transporter and the air bearings. Platform transporters can be fitted with A-type or B-type air bearings, thus making them a very flexible load moving tool. See which type of air bearing do I need for more details.

A-type air bearings require only one bolt removal for a quick-change bearing replacement and B-type require just five bolts.

Once the transporter is energised with compressed air, it becomes truly omnidirectional and can safely place its load with pinpoint accuracy and positioning.

Another feature of the aluminium platform transporter is that they can be used in tandem at either end of a longer load, making them a truly versatile load moving tool.
