Mobility
Each individual 500t unit weighs a small 17t and includes certified lifting lugs allowing for the frames to be loaded and transported easily and with minimum cost.
Capacity
Each system has certification to lift a maximum of 500t and a stroke of 2.0 metres.
Efficiency and safety
With the patented safety packing system, the need for personnel to be under the suspended load during the process has been removed. In addition, the average time for the jacking process has been significantly decreased by approximately 14 hours to approximately 30 mins.
Size
The jacking frames have been designed with versatility as one of many major features. Each 500t unit presently weighs 16.5t. Dimensions are 1.2m x 2.0m x 2.8m. Further development is in progress for smaller 100, 200 and 400 tonne units to allow for varying excavators and other equipment.
Side Load
Each of the units has been third party certified to withstand side load influences. Reducing risk related to wind, blasting and ground conditions.
Resources
The PakkaJaks system requires a minimum of 4 people for operation, in comparison to 10 or more for other systems.. One person to operate the controls and 3 observers to ensure additional safety and monitoring of progress.
Lifting Control
Each unit has been fitted with a laser measuring device displaying the present status (height) and is measurable to within 1/1000 of a millimetre.
Future Development
R&D is in progress for 100, 200 and 400 tonne systems and are scheduled to be operational by 2008.
