This time, we will introduce a case of transportation for a large product manufactured by Mitsuya Co., Ltd., rather than a production example.
At Mitsuya Co., Ltd., we often receive requests from customers for single or one-off products rather than mass-produced items. This time, we received an order for a large chassis frame that measures W5800, L3150, H2750, which has been divided into three parts. The size of each product is W1900, L3150, H2750, resulting in three units. With these dimensions, it would fit a 10-ton truck; however, since the truck bed length is L9670, L3150 x 3 equals 9450, which seems like it should fit on the truck. However, to prevent interference with the product, we need to insert sleepers, and since various transport items are loaded on the truck bed, we cannot load all three units onto one truck. While it seems that placing them in the H2750 direction would work, the height of 3150 poses a risk of interference with overpasses or tunnels during transit. Therefore, we decided against transporting them on one truck and arranged for one 10-ton flatbed truck and one 4-ton flatbed truck instead.

basic information
We struggled with precise positioning during loading onto the truck, but the biggest challenge was covering the product with protective sheets to shield it from rain, wind, and obstacles like stones while in transit. We wanted to keep it as is if the weather was good, but unfortunately, it was raining on the day, so protective sheets were necessary. However, due to the height of the product, we couldn't manually place the protective sheets on top, and since there was no crane at the loading area, we initially considered abandoning the protective sheets and just using blue tarps. In the end, we solved the issue by bringing a 10-ton truck to the welding assembly area where there was a crane, allowing us to cover the product with the protective sheets.
