Abstract

A skidding system, sometimes referred to as a jack and slide system, is a horizontal/vertical load handling method that involves hydraulic/pneumatic cylinders pushing (or pulling) shoes that carry a load over a controlled friction surface. Skid is flat structure which supports loads while being moved or lifted using conventional methods. A skid is also called a pallet. It is usually made of wood or steel. Skidding systems are used to move large structures, in a safe and efficient manner. This system can be operated within a designated space to move the load. For that purpose, a skidding track is required. This is a metal track coated with Teflon. On top of it, a skid-shoe or beam is placed inside the track which has a stainless steel bottom and a load carrying structure on top. This paper clearly emphasizes the design, development, fabrication and analysis of a typical fluid powered skidding system.
