Flying change

At Sonova AG we were tasked with the delivery of a machining center “Kern Micro”. At first, we had to remove an existing machining center “Röders”, where we were confronted with rather tight spaces. With rotating trolleys, the machine was rotated, moved via a narrow passage to the open facade, lifted over the threshold and placed on our prepared podium. From there it was lifted off with a crane onto a truck.

With the mobile crane the new machine was unloaded from our truck and placed on the podium and moved into the building the same way the old was taken out.
