AmeraMex International equipment order ships to Texas port
AmeraMex International, Inc., a provider of heavy equipment for logistics companies, infrastructure construction and forestry conservation, announced that it has completed the final shipment of a large equipment order to a port in Texas.
The final piece of equipment from the initial order is a $300,000, Taylor Equipment forklift, with a 45,000-pound capacity that will be used to off-load steel coils that weigh over 40,000 pounds each from holds in a ship. The forklift is stationed in the hold of a ship by a crane and is used to retrieve steel coils from around the perimeter of the hold. The coils are then positioned so that the crane can grab them and off-load them from the ship. Once a hold is empty, the crane repositions the forklift into the next hold and the process continues.
