A PROJECT FOR DEMAKO
An injection of Chockfast® Orange to protect the rotation system.
We view each project as a challenge, a new opportunity to help our clients find the perfect chocking and sealing solution. Here is a collaboration successfully completed!
The Challenge
Reduced and variable thicknesses, as well as specifications demanding a resin resistant to high compression loads and wear. Furthermore, the formwork had to be installed and finalized before its final dimensions were known.
Finres SA’s Proposal
Chockfast ® Orange was proposed to Demako as it is the ideal product for this type of application. To achieve this, Finres designed an adaptive formwork system, allowing the product to be injected regardless of the final thickness.
The Execution
The adaptive formwork was installed on the support plate of the rotating system before the bridge deck was installed. The client was then able to place the bridge in its final position relative to the rotating system. Finres SA then injected an impressive quantity of Chockfast® Orange between the bridge and its support carousel. All these specific tasks were carried out safely while working at a height of 4m.
Our sincere thanks to Jan Tiré, Project Manager at Demako, for his trust and testimony:
“To fill a 10 m² area between our mechanical parts and a 2000-ton steel structure, we were looking for a flexible partner ready to take on this challenge. The area to be covered had an irregular shape and variable height. Finres succeeded in finding an original solution that was executed very quickly and flawlessly. Due to the meticulous attention paid to defining the approach and preparing the work, we are extremely satisfied with the cooperation for this complex mission.”
We would also like to take this opportunity to remind you that we will have the great pleasure of participating in the Pumps&Valves exhibition on March 23 and 24, 2022!
