Jointed Beam [D-Section]
The jointed beam offers an alternative option
to our standard beams, the product comes in 2
parts for ease of transportation.
Jointed beams are not included in standard
range
. Each configuration should be assessed to

Ensure all bolts in the joint are present and
tighten to 27Nm [20 ft lbs].
Avoid point loads on top of the joint.
The joint positioning must be 2/3 of the overall
length of the beam.
Ensure the trolley runs freely over the joint

Beam Height Adjustment
The height of each gantry beam is easily
adjusted by the release of 2 bolts on each
upright and can be easily and safely raised
into position by increments of 200 or 150mm
depending on product.
To assist with this activity a Geared Wheel
or Ratchet system is provided for the larger
gantries; manual on smaller frames.
