Industrial machine manipulation
Moving machines is more than lifting and driving. It involves planning, analyzing, dismantling, transporting, and rebuilding. Without your production suffering longer than necessary. That is what Schoonacker Transport has excelled at for over 20 years.
Based in Wetteren, active nationally and internationally. Tailored to your organization.

What is industrial machine manipulation?
Industrial machine manipulation encompasses all operations involved in moving, installing, or repositioning machines, installations, and production lines within an industrial environment. Examples include internally relocating a heavy production line, dismantling and reinstalling an entire factory, or precisely placing a machine in a new location. Down to the millimeter if necessary.
Downtime costs money. Every minute your plant is not running is a minute you are not producing. That is why every project at Schoonacker does not start with a truck, but with a plan.
The equipment that makes the difference
Large projects require the right equipment. Schoonacker has an extensive and varied fleet that allows us to put together a tailor-made solution for every project:
Electric forklifts up to 12 tons for heavy internal transport
Pick & Carry cranes from 3.2 to 60 tons for exceptionally heavy installations
Low loaders & semi-trailers for transporting production lines over long distances
Trucks with truck-mounted cranes for loading and unloading at locations without a loading dock
Aerial work platforms for working at height within production environments
Scissor lifts and articulated telescopic lifts for specific situations
Heavy is no problem. Exceptional isn't either.

Schoonacker's holistic approach
Schoonacker Transport guarantees a complete service from A to Z. In concrete terms, this means:
Preparation & risk analysis: Together with you, we discuss the approach, the schedule, and the price-quality ratio in advance. No surprises afterwards.
Disassembly & Assembly: Our technicians dismantle your installations with the necessary knowledge and care. This ensures that every component remains intact and ready for reinstallation.
Internal & external transport: Whether it concerns a relocation within your factory or a fully international moving project, Schoonacker takes care of it.
Temporary storage: Can your machines not be placed immediately? We store them temporarily in our secure storage facilities.
Additional works: In addition to industrial transport, Schoonacker Transport also provides industrial manipulations such as dismantling and assembly work, installing and repairing machines, reinforcing the ground, or manufacturing or modifying metal structures.
One point of contact. Less coordination. More control.

Safety is not an afterthought
In industrial environments, safety is non-negotiable. Our employees are trained and comply with all VCA standards . They possess the necessary diplomas and certificates to work responsibly and safely, even in industrial environments with specific risks.
Precision. Craftsmanship. Safety. These are not empty words at Schoonacker. For us, that is the way of daily business.
