Heavy transport for large machine building
Manufacturers of large machines – presses, rolling mills, large machine tools, gearboxes – deliver assemblies that individually exceed the general limits. They travel dismantled to the customer and are assembled there.
What matters
- Assemblies
- Machines are split into assemblies for transport.
- Heavy single pieces
- Uprights, beds and housings determine vehicle and permit.
- Export
- Many deliveries go abroad – often via a port.
- Assembly at the customer
- Delivery matched to the assembly team.
Planning questions
We clarify these points before quoting – the earlier they are known, the more precise the plan.
- Which assemblies, with dimensions and weights?
- Destination at home or abroad?
- Is there a port leg?
- What is the lifting situation at the customer?
- When does assembly start?
What we need from you
- Parts list
- Destination
- Assembly date
- Lifting situation
Preparation: You hand over the cargo ready for loading with known lifting points – dismantling, assembly and foundation work are handled by your team or your installation partner.
What we do for you
What we organise
- Feasibility check per project with questions on missing values
- Coordination of permits, escort vehicles, route surveys and lifting equipment via partners
- Quote with the agreed scope once the transport can be planned

Execution
Transports after permit, delivery matched to assembly.
Questions and answers: Large machine building
When is Heavy & Project responsible rather than Machinery?
When assemblies are so large or heavy that permits, escorts or route surveys become necessary.
Can transport to an export port be organised?
Yes, the road leg to the port is common. Further legs are set out in the quote.
Who assembles the machine at the customer?
The manufacturer or its assembly partner.
