International heavy-duty haulage logistics fits the description of the company name KAHL Schwerlast GmbH. Andreas Kahl is not only Managing Director of the company but also board member of BSK Bundesfachgruppe Schwertransporte und Kranarbeiten (BSK) e.V. based in Frankfurt/Main. In this function he does a great deal on political level for better framework conditions of the heavy-haulage sector.
200 tonnes of steel nosed their way through Schwedt yesterday. A distillation column being 45m long, 3.6m in diameter and 82 tonnes was delivered to the PCK refinery.
Just 600 m from the destination headed for. But now comes the trickiest location to be overcome by the driver Udo Baumgarten on the 3km long journey.
Saturday night a 575 tonne heavy truck train rolls through the northern Ruhr area carrying parts of an air separation unit.
Never before F.A. Neuman, a specialist in tank construction, built anything larger than the CO2 stripping column that was transported in two parts in the night from Wednesday to Thursday on a predetermined route from the centre of the town to Geleen in the Netherlands.
Roadblocks everywhere, police everywhere with blue lights switched on. Last night in Eschweiler at 10: the roaring engine of a 46m long giant transporter (5.20m wide, 4.70 m high).
The transport could not but accept a one hour stop under the motorway bridge at Aachen-Verlautenheide . It went millimeter by millimeter.
