Air Skates from LGH.
Moving and positioning heavy equipment doesn’t have to be a tedious or high-risk task. Air skates provide a modern solution to a common problem that transforms heavy lifting into a smooth and efficient process. Whether in manufacturing, warehousing, or maintenance, these innovative tools deliver unmatched benefits. Here’s why air skates are a must have for moving equipment:
“How does this even work?” You may ask. Well, they operate using compressed air to create a thin, frictionless cushion between the skate and the floor. This makes moving even the heaviest loads—like industrial machinery or HVAC units—virtually effortless. For example, a manufacturing plant could use this equipment to reposition a 20-ton stamping press in less than an hour, a task that would have taken a full day with traditional equipment.

Handling massive equipment often involves risks like tipping or straining. Air skates mitigate these risks by evenly distributing weight across the surface and eliminating manual lifting. They could also help reduce workplace injuries during a year-long implementation, as employees would no longer have to manually maneuver heavy pallets or rely on forklifts in tight spaces.

When using heavy machinery and traditional rollers, your floors can be left damaged, leaving you with a significant repair cost and taking up more valuable time. However, air skates hover above the ground, reducing surface friction and ensuring your floors remain in excellent condition.
Air skates offer 360 degrees of control, allowing you to navigate tight spaces and position equipment with perfect accuracy. This precision is especially valuable in industries like manufacturing, where equipment placement needs to be exact.
Renting this product from a trusted provider like LGH is a cost effective way to access high performance equipment without the worry of repair or storage costs. With models available to handle up to 315,00 lbs., they are versatile enough to meet the demands of multiple industries.
Whether you’re repositioning heavy machinery or navigating delicate flooring, they are a versatile tool for modern material handling. Their combination of efficiency, safety, and versatility makes them a smart choice for businesses looking to streamline operations.
