The motorised inclination spreader beam is a high-precision lifting device. CIPAL designs and manufactures it to order for the most demanding civil engineering sites. It lifts and tilts large concrete half-arches from a horizontal position up to 45°. Each movement is thus performed with full control for the assembly of complete arches on site.
Motorised inclination beam — motorised central trolley
Its motorised central trolley moves the slings from one side of the beam to the other. It thus tilts the half-arch progressively and in a controlled manner. Two hydraulic cylinders then provide fine adjustment of the inclination during the final phase. The on-board generator powers the hydraulic power unit and control system. The motorised spreader beam is therefore completely energy-autonomous on site.
A hydraulic power unit with dual safety
The hydraulic power unit integrates two motor pumps, a main and a standby. It thus ensures continuity of operations in demanding site conditions. The operator controls all movements remotely via a proportional radio remote control. Each movement is consequently controlled with precision to protect the integrity of the concrete components being handled.
CIPAL integrates civil engineering-specific constraints from the design phase onwards. Traceability requirements and regulatory compliance are furthermore an integral part of every development. The engineering department sizes each spreader beam according to the application’s constraints. It takes into account component geometry, positioning tolerances and on-site operating conditions. Every unit is moreover delivered with a complete technical file: operating instructions, structural calculations and CE marking.
