People engaged in business have probably faced the need to move, transport goods and equipment. Sometimes there are situations when transporting and moving, resorting only to the services of ordinary movers, it is not possible to. In such a situation, you have to resort to rigging services. Rigging work, in a wide sense, is the movement, installation and dismantling of equipment using various technical means. The rigging work can be both relatively simple and complex, impossible without the use of special rigging technology. So, an example of simple rigging work is the rise or descent up the stairs of the piano. Everyone probably knows how it is done. To transport this musical instrument, special straps are used. This is an elementary technical tool, but nevertheless it is necessary to understand that a musical instrument must be very neatly demolished and raised. Otherwise, it can simply be spoiled.
Industrial dismantling or installation of equipment makes you resort to more complex technical devices and machines. To disassemble, translate and install complex industrial machines and machines again, resorting to the help of straps alone and ropes alone is not always possible. It is especially difficult to carry out installation and dismantling in rooms with narrow doorways and windows, as well as on high floors. In order to simplify complex rigging work, they use such auxiliary means as rigging platforms, crowbars, carts, winches, a tap in a window, a hydraulic jack, rail taps and much more.
Rigging equipment is used not only for transportation, installation and dismantling of industrial equipment. Those who at least once were in a large supermarket could see a machine that removes or loads goods to the upper shelves. Such a machine is called a stack.
You can talk a lot about the features of rigging work. But if you limit yourself only to their short characteristic, it remains to add that transportation of goods, also requires their packaging and fixing. Returning for example with the piano, it is also important to take it correctly. You can’t just immerse a musical instrument in a van – a tool that will bounce on the bumps, then you can throw it out. It needs to be securely fixed in the car. Another rigging services involve the manufacture of special packages for cargoes.
