Highveld Pack specs
Machine details and key figures for Highveld Pack.
Highveld handling and siting data
The Highveld Pack specs page summarises the machine and setup points tied to local workshop conditions. It gives buyers a plain view of what should be checked before the machine goes onto the floor.
The figures needed before a Highveld Pack machine is moved into a Johannesburg workshop should be set out clearly. Weight, overall footprint, access width, lifting points and power supply matter more here than sales wording. Inland dust, dry air and long haul road movement across Gauteng all need to be considered when the machine is positioned and prepared for use.
Check the machine against the listed dimensions before arranging skates, forklift capacity or crane access. A clear note on guarding, loose tooling, coolant tank condition and electrical isolation helps prevent surprises on arrival at Crown Mines or another industrial site. Photos of the base, control side and lifting areas are worth having with the spec sheet.
Highveld Pack handover points
For a buyer, the useful part of Highveld Pack specs is the information that affects placement and commissioning. Bed length, swing, spindle details, motor rating, voltage, lubrication points and machine mass should be easy to verify against the unit on site. If valve grinding or boring equipment is included, the pack should also note attached stands, cabinets and ancillary items.
Before widening the move scope, match Highveld Pack specs to the intended bay, supply cable route and door clearance. Confirm whether chucks, steadies, faceplates, guards and manuals travel with the machine or need separate packing.

- Voltage, motor load and isolator check
- Loose tooling listed with the machine
Johannesburg placement conditions
Highveld conditions place different demands on machine installation than coastal sites. Fine dust works into slides, electrics and coolant areas, so covers, wipers and cleaning access should be noted on the spec page. In older Johannesburg premises, doorway height, slab condition and three-phase availability can matter as much as spindle capacity.
Transport into Crown Mines and surrounding industrial areas is easier when the spec sheet records true packed dimensions rather than nominal catalogue sizes. Power interruptions also affect commissioning plans, especially where phase sequence, control resets or lubrication start-up checks are required. The useful test is whether the machine can be unloaded, placed and connected without guesswork.

Records to keep with the sheet
Use Highveld Pack for inland machine moves, floor placement and commissioning around Johannesburg and the Highveld.
Attach the Highveld Pack specs to inspection notes, serial number photos and any list of included accessories. That makes later checks simpler when a lathe, boring machine or valve grinder is collected from stock and prepared for dispatch. A dated copy beside the machine file helps identify what was seen on site versus what was added afterwards.
