  • In this video we will move our giant 30ft / 10 meter lathe out from our workshop and load it to giant trailer to be transported to it's new owner. We will use hydraulic jacks, special heavy duty rollers and giant 16 ton forklift to get it loaded. You will also see how it's disassembled for the transportation. This is part 1 on of video series, on next episode you will see how it's put back to use on it's destination.

    Seeing this reminded me of moving a 33’ Axelson lathe back in ‘94. The boss man insisted on lifting it with steel cable lifting straps. It was about 10 feet in the air when the cables on the tailstock end broke. That thing hit the floor hard. Broke the lathe in half since headstock was still in the air. Completely destroyed the usefulness of the lathe. Glad I was busy running a lathe and was just a witness. No one was hurt but that was just stupid luck.

      Should've used more steel cables. Was it repairable?

    • @martinswiney2192
      @martinswiney2192 3 месяца назад

      @@simontay4851 part of it was the cables were too small (shop foreman’s decision not the crane operators) and the tailstock end was being picked up by a mobile crane parked outside the shop with its boom stuck thru a 16’ garage door. The headstock was being lifted by an overhead crane. It was on an extended flatbed trailer. So they had to pick it up and then move it off to the side of the truck. The lift started ok and they had it off the drivers side of the truck. I think what got it was the boom on the mobile crane got at an odd angle and tensioned the cabled n snap BOOM. Just that fast.
      It was also a two piece bed and was held together with six 2” diameter 4150 rods threaded on each end and just sandwiched the ways together. They also acted as dowels for alignment. It pulled these rods apart like a gorilla ripping the arms off a christian missionary. Yeah. It also busted the bearing housing for the lead screw and feed shafts at the tailstock end. It came flying off quite energetically a few seconds after the dust settled, literally. It went flying across the floor, the lead screw was about 2 1/2” diameter ( this was in 1995 so excuse my memory on exact sizes but it was big). It almost took a guys legs out from under him. Stopped just shy of him. I ended up being the one to do most of the attempted repairs including making the new rods that joined the ways. Once reassembled the lead screw was waving like crazy so we just took it out. We used the lathe for roughing out large shafts. Thats all it was good for. It had come all the way from a Navy yard in California to Birmingham AL just to bust its ass. Had been used as a barrel lathe for naval guns. Was 33 ft between centers so probably 5” guns. Sorry for the whole story. Flashback. Oh. Thought boss man was gonna have a heart attack for real. Dunno what that cost him but figure $100k with transport.

    I noticed the 50% understeer of the rear trailer tires. One of the heavy haul trucks that I drove had a feature like that which for normal driving was controlled by a huge metal wedge that you tightened up into the fifth wheel, and for really tight turns you could control the trailer steering by the hydraulic controls on the right side of the trailer, which are powered by a small diesel engine that is only used for the hydraulics when loading, unloading, or when making extremely tight turns. The entire tractor-trailer combination had a total of 48 tires on the ground, 8 on the truck, and 40 tires on the trailer. It was a huge truck, I could walk under the open doors on the truck and not hit my head on the bottom of the doors.
