ACCESS & LIGHTWEIGHT
SOLUTIONS
When your project requires an ultra-light solution, we offer a product line of aluminum modular items. Yes, each individual item can be hand-carried! The rigid lattice structure makes these items ideal for light weight lifting and engineered scaffold alternatives resulting in significant time savings.
LIGHTWEIGHT ALUMINUM LIFTING SYSTEM
Alltec aluminum lattice spreader is designed and built to provide solutions to lifting operations when weight is of the essence. With the heaviest spreader component being only 43Lbs all components can be hand-carried. The lattice design creates a rigid structure with exceptional bending and compression structural properties. Due to its modular design endless configurations can be built and because all connections are pinned-connections there is no need for power-tools to reconfigure. Past projects include spreader bar assemblies of up to 60ft with 6 pick points. Contact Alltec to learn more about the capabilities.
ALUMINUM TRUSS GANTRY
Our modular lightweight gantry systems are available to accommodate and adapt to your lifting needs. Each configuration is engineered specifically to meet your lifting requirements; capacities vary per configurations.
The benefits of an aluminum truss gantry systems are:
-
Modular construction enables many different configurations (such as single and double towers, different elevations, footings and lengths)
-
All aluminum components can be hand carried and can easily go up/down and elevator/staircase
-
Low pounds per square foot (psf) due to optimal load distribution and ultra light tare weight
-
Simple and fast on-site assembly/disassembly
Our proven access systems have cut previous clients project downtime by as much as 80%. Once erected, you will have 100% accessibility to any location in the tank with zero blind spots. From a safety standpoint, the system is safer than traditional access methods due to increased visibility, reduced risks associated with confined space, and ease of movement which also improves productivity.
Benefits:
-
Meets ANSI A10.8 scaffolding requirements
-
5,000 lbs OSHA anchor point safety
-
Adjustable work platforms
-
Lightweight modular construction
-
Easy access and clear visibility
-
Decreased downtime with increased productivity
Our modular system enables us to design, engineer, construct, and execute in multiple confined spaces. Contact Alltec for more details.

SPHERE ACCESS SYSTEM
UPRIGHT VESSEL ACCESS SYSTEMS
Alltec engineering has developed endless applications for the modular aluminum lattice sections. The upright vessel access system presents an alternative to conventional scaffolding. The system can be installed at a fraction of the time compared to conventional scaffolding and provides 360 degrees access at each elevation. The individual components can be hand-carried and fit through a manhole. The platform can easily be partially folded in or removed to work around internal obstructions.
