The safest way to move a printing press is by hiring professional rigging and moving specialists. Experts, like Pressroom Solutions, use heavy-duty forklifts, cranes, and precision rigging equipment to safely dismantle, transport, and reinstall presses. We also handle alignment and leveling to ensure your press is production-ready after relocation.

Riggers relocate packaging equipment by carefully dismantling machinery, labeling components, and securing sensitive parts for transport. Once moved, the equipment is reassembled and aligned to manufacturer specifications. Specialized rigging tools and lifting systems are used to protect both the machinery and facility during the process.

Printing presses are large, delicate, and expensive machines. Hiring Pressroom Solutions minimizes the risk of damage, reduces downtime, and ensures safe handling. We have the equipment, training, and proper insurance coverage to manage complex relocations that standard movers cannot handle.

Rigging a printing press typically requires forklifts, hydraulic gantries, cranes, heavy-duty dollies, skates, and rigging chains or straps. The exact equipment depends on the press size, weight, and facility layout. Pressroom Solutions determines the best tools to ensure a safe and efficient move.

The cost of moving packaging machinery varies based on factors such as machine size, distance, dismantling complexity, and reinstallation requirements. Local moves are generally less expensive than full plant relocations. Requesting a customized quote is the best way to understand project-specific pricing.

In some cases, smaller printing presses can be relocated without dismantling. However, larger presses often require partial or full disassembly to ensure safe transport and reinstallation. Pressroom Solutions evaluates each project to determine the safest and most cost-effective approach.

A typical packaging line relocation involves:

• Onsite assessment and planning
• Dismantling equipment and securing components
• Rigging and loading machinery for transport
• Transporting equipment to the new location
• Reinstallation, alignment, and testing

This turnkey process ensures minimal downtime and maximum efficiency.

Preparation includes shutting down the press, disconnecting utilities, draining fluids if necessary, and securing moving parts. Pressroom Solutions creates a move plan that outlines lifting points, rigging methods, and transportation logistics. Proper preparation reduces the risk of damage and speeds up reinstallation.

Packaging equipment often includes conveyors, fillers, and robotics that require exact alignment. Precision rigging ensures these machines are placed accurately in their new location, preventing production issues and reducing costly downtime.

Specialized rigging and relocation companies, such as Pressroom Solutions, focus on moving printing presses and packaging equipment. We offer end-to-end services, including dismantling, transport, reinstallation, and plant relocation. Choosing an experienced company ensures safety, efficiency, and minimal disruption to your operations.
