Manufactured for A. G. Simpson, the 100,000 lb. capacity lift moves dies from the press area to a remote storage and rework department.  Weighing up to 97,000 lbs. the dies were previously confined to the press area only.  Loaded onto the Porta-Vator by a crane, a standard fork truck which is equipped with the innovative Porta-Arm accessory, locks into the lift's transporter.  The transporter is then raised slightly and driven to the storage area, where unloading takes place.

The Porta-Vator's maneuverability, fork truck compatibility, and quick disconnect lift-arm system makes this an ideal solution for transport requirements of ten to fifty tons.  For A.G. Simpson, this low-cost capital investment yielded cost savings in die change-out and repair times as well as production space utilization.
