5 Top Most Heavy Equipment



Science has conquered time and space. Over the years man has come up with many inventions, one more innovative than other. The invention of machines is a boon to mankind. A machine is a device that makes our work easier, faster & more convenient. Right from waking up in the morning till going to bed at night,man continues to make use of some machine or the other, whether it be talking to someone on phone or going to the office.However, inventions of equipment's used in Earth moving, construction & material handling have managed to move the earth beneath our feet. There are two kinds of heavy equipment; simple and complex. Today let's learn about complex equipment's such as; excavators, backhoe loaders, wheel loaders, cranes & forklifts. 
1)     Excavators - Excavators are large construction equipment that are used to dig dirt and lift heavy material. The most common uses of an excavator are:

       Digging
       Material Handling
       Construction
       Mining
       Demolition
       River Dredging

2) Backhoe Loader - Backhoe loader contains a shovel/bucket on the front & a backhoe on the back. The bucket in the back can be modified using different attachments according to trench width. The most common uses of a backhoe loader are:

       Construction
       Transportation
       Digging
       Breaking Asphalt
       Landscaping
       Paving Roads

3) Wheel loader - Wheel loader are mobile shovels that transport material around job sites. It is of the most widely used machines in the construction today. The most common use of a wheel loader are:

       Material Handling
       Load-and-Carry
       Digging
       Demolition
       Waste Management
       Forestry

3) Cranes - A Crane is a type of machine used to lift & lower materials. It is mainly used for lifting heavy things and transporting them. There are different types of cranes eg. Farana, Hydra, Crawler, Tower & Telescopic. The most common uses of crane are:

       Construction
       Hoisting
       Transportation
       Mining
       Manufacturing
       Lifting

5) Forklifts - A Forklift also called as fork truck is used to lift & mover materials. Generally it is used to raise heavy loads and stack them in warehouses, shipping depots etc. The most common uses of forklifts are:

       Material Handling
       Construction
       Warehousing
       Stacking
       Snow Plowing
       Lifting

All these equipment's are some or the other way linked with our lives. Each equipment is specialized for a specific job. Whether it be for construction, farming, mining or moving materials, each equipment has its own respective place. Make sure that you have the right machine for your project. Equipment renting services can be a life-saver. GizmoTab provides flexible renting services for equipment's in all these categories.

10 Types Of Crane You Should Know About!

Nowadays, Machinery is being extensively used. It has harnessed the forces of nature in the service of man. Machinery has increased productivity, production and income, thereby leading to a rapid economic growth. Tedious task of lifting heavy material can be easily done by simply pressing a knob. A crane can lift loads which man never can. A Crane is a type of machine used to lift & lower materials. It is mainly used for lifting heavy things and transporting them. There are different types of cranes namely; Farana, Hydra, Crawler, Tower, telescopic, Rough Terrain, Overhead, Hydraulic carry deck and Truck Mounted.  Let's have a look at the following cranes in detail… Farana Crane - A Farana is a ‘pick and carry’ crane which is similar to a mobile crane designed to travel on public road. As the ultimate “taxi” crane, farana are versatile & multi purpose allowing use in workshops, plant sites, mines. These cranes are designed  to lift  loads &  carry it

Things you must know about heavy equipment!

       "The road to success is Always under construction ."  A very important truth of life. Life is constantly changing and evolving. It's difficult to keep a hold on it. But a right decision at the right time can turn your, ‘work in progress’ to ‘good to go’. Technology plays a vital role in this. It is now a big part of our society & our foreseeable future. But, what is technology? Technology refers to the use of tools, machines, materials, techniques & sources of power to make  work easier & more productive. Gone are the days of stone age and here is the age of machines. If only there were cranes present, it wouldn't have taken such amount of time and effort to build the TajMahal or the great pyramid of Giza. Don't you think so? Heavy equipment's have changed the way we live. It has made our life stronger, better and long-lasting. Yet we are often caught up with the same question, whether to buy or rent heavy machinery
