Oversize Load - Engel 450

Recently on a cold and snowy day, we loaded up an Engel 450 injection mold machine. The machine weight was 54,000 lbs and it was an oversize load. We used a Versa-Lift 40/60 for the lift, which handled the job with no trouble at all.



At American Industrial Werks we take on the little jobs and the big jobs. We're happy to help the little guy move his new Bridgeport into his garage shop or help the big production shop grow their company with an new 125,000 lb Van Dorn injection mold machine.

Machinery Movers Directory Update - CO, DE & FL


The US Directory of Machinery Movers, Erectors and Riggers www.us-machinerymovers.com has been updated with three new states.

Colorado - http://www.co-machinerymovers.com
Delaware - http://www.de-machinerymovers.com
Florida - http://www.fl-machinerymovers.com

This is an ongoing project to identify for businesses true machinery movers, erectors and riggers. Often times supporting companies such as heavy haul trucking, crane companies and rigging equipment suppliers get lumped into this category but are really just a supporting service.

Wind Turbine Installations

Take a drive South or West of Chicago, IL and it won’t be long before you see vast acres of land filled with wind turbines either running or being installed. In fact, according to the Chicago Sun-Times and the American Wind Energy Association, in 2011, Illinois topped the nation in the number of new wind turbines installations and ranked second only to California in the total amount of the turbines’ power capacity.

With about 50 wind energy companies in the Chicago area and approximately twenty eight companies in Illinois manufacturing components for the wind industry, this green energy business is booming. American Industrial Werks, Inc. is also taking part in this growth sector by specializing in the rigging aspect of generator installations in the field. In addition, it provides machinery moving and installation services to wind energy component manufacturers along with industrial curtain installations to control facility temperatures and dust from the manufacturing process.
