- The assembly seen here was designed to move
up to a 2 million pound drilling rig, but systems can be built
to have a max Push/Pull Capacity of up to 400 tons. This system
requires a slotted beam.
- In order to push or pull the rig, the jacking
claws will rotate either clockwise or counter clockwise for
pushing or pulling modes. (as highlighted in attached pictures
and identified as the "jacking claws"). In the clockwise
or down position: the engagement of the gripper box assembly
to the skid beam occurs. In this mode, pushing of the rig is
possible. In the "up" position: the jacking cylinder
is retracted and the gripper box assembly will move to the next
slot position.
