Project Description
Assignments
The client’s objective was to improve the air quality in one of their assembly halls
Separating the assembly hall and the welding hall by using a fast-fold door.
The crane had to be able to run under the folded fast-fold door.
Solutions
Intentus Engineering was selected to provide the mechanical and electrical engineering and installation.
Intentus Engineering designed 2x 200kg fast-fold doors each measuring 12 meters wide and 8 meters high.
Mechanical stress analyses were performed to ensure the strength of the components.
A motor drives a shaft of 30 meters. The shaft rolls up straps, which cause the doors to fold.
Results
No more smoke in the assembly hall.
2x 200kg fast-fold doors, controlled from an operator panel.
About the project
A temporary work platform was built on top of the crane, 30 meters high.
On top of the platform, a hoist was installed to lift the two fast-fold doors.
Intentus Engineering installed the fast-fold doors in two days.
