4 TRANSPORTERS POSITIONERS Multi-Axis Hydraulic Positioners Wheeled Transporter Industrial Tugger Welding Positioners Alternative to tow-chain conveyors, fork trucks, and overhead cranes Optional AGV line following technology Variable speed drives available On-Board safety system Welding positioners enable safe, easy manipulation of workpieces, allowing workers to create smooth, continuous welds without pausing to reposition. Multi-axis hydraulic positioners bring a new level of precision control to your material positioning or welding operations, allowing workers to position heavy equipment with ease. Capacities from 1,000 lbs. to 40 tons Advanced motion control for smooth operation Optional self-centering clamping system Reduce cycle times by 50% Wheeled Transporters are the perfect alternative to our air caster transporters in environments that are less than ideal for an air caster. Standard Capacities up to 240,000 lbs Upgradeable Battery offers 2 hours run time Modular design for easy parts replacement Optional 5" lift top & pallet system Polyurethane wheels offer improved traction The Industrial Tugger is the perfect solution for moving heavy carts, tooling fixtures, or products through industrial facilities or assembly lines. Custom Transporters Capacities from 1,000 lbs. to 40 tons Reduce cycle times by 45-50% Offer rotation, lifting and tilting Positioner need not be fixed to the floor Headstock & Tailstock Positioners Head & tailstock positioners provide both lifting and variable-speed rotation in either direction. The units are ideal for welding, torch cutting, or cladding operations. Idler tailstock positioners have the same specifications as the corresponding headstock positioners, except they are not powered.

5 AIR CASTER EQUIPMENT Air Skid Systems Air skids are ideal for moving large loads or machinery. Available in a range of sizes and capacities, our skid systems are built to last. Rigging Box The Rigging Box is an easily transportable air skid solution. The Rigging Box is a turn-key solution for any air skid move, containing: Air Transporter Our Air Transporters are an alternative to wheeled transporters, using air casters instead of wheels. Custom configurations available. Power Tugger Power Tuggers enable one person to easily and precisely move unrestrained loads exceeding 10,000 pounds. Kit capacities up to 210,000 lbs Move 10,000 lbs with 10 lbs of force Can be serviced without removing the load Newly redesigned ergonomic controller 6x Air Skids 2x Replacement Air Casters Control Unit & Hoses Deadman Pendant Standard capacities from 45,000 lbs. to 200,000 lbs. Works great with our Platforms Variable speed with up to 58 fpm Able to maneuver in tight, confined spaces What Is In An Air Caster? An Air Caster forms a film of air between the load and floor surface, similar to an air hockey table. A flexible, wear-resistant urethane diaphragm is inflated, forming a seal with the floor and creating a thin film of air and allowing the load to float. On a smooth floor, this air film allows for nearly friction-free movement in any direction. omni-directional near friction free reduced floorwear cost effective Lift Glide Air Skid Our Lift Glides are a great addition to a wheeled cart or dolly, offering flexibiliy between wheels and air casters. Custom configurations available. Capacities from 10,000 lbs. to 48,000 lbs. for a set of four Lift Glide Air Skids Easy to setup Able to maneuver in tight, confined spaces Utility Platforms Our standard utility platforms are an alternative to wheeled carts, using air casters instead of wheels. Custom configurations available. Capacities from 8,000 lbs. to 12,000 lbs. Included guide wheel reduces drifting Controls mounted on handle Able to maneuver in tight, confined spaces Common Questions What are the Air Requirements? Most factory air systems are suitable for Air Caster systems, with a requirement of above 80 PSI. Air flow is also important, as an Air Caster system, 3 SCFM per foot of perimiter. Do Air Casters tear or wear out? Airfloat uses 100% urethane with superior wear resistance. Because they re near frictionless, air casters receive minimal wear and tear under normal usage. Will Air Casters work on my floor? Our Air Casters are designed to operate on machine-troweled concrete. The floor need to be reasonably level, and expansion gaps can be filled with epoxy for seamless travel. Shop Online at catalog.alignproductionsystems.com or Call for a Quote Visit us online at or
