Machine Moving Skates & Rotating Dollies

Our range of machine moving skates and rotating dollies are designed to provide safe, controlled and efficient movement of heavy machinery and industrial equipment. Featuring a 360 degree roatating platforms, these industrial skates allow heavy loads to be manoeuvered easily in confined restricted spaces. Our range of Gondola Skates have an integral brake ideal for secure repositioning. 

Suitable for use in factories, workshops, warehouses abd plant rooms our rotating dolloes and machine moving skates are engineered for high load capacities, durability and precise positioning. Whether you are reloacting machinery, installing equipment, or carrying out maintenance work these skates offer a reliable heavy duty transport solution

What are Rotating Dollies and Machine Moving Skates?

Rotating dollies, also known as 360-degree machine moving skates, are industrial load-moving devices that allow heavy equipment to be turned and positioned smoothly while under load. Unlike fixed-direction skates, rotating skates enable multi-directional movement, making them ideal for tight spaces and complex manoeuvres.

They are commonly used for:

• Moving heavy machinery and plant equipment carrying from 300kg up to 4 tonnes each

• Positioning industrial units in workshops and factories

• Machinery installation and relocation projects

• Maintenance and engineering applications

Key Features & Benefits

• 360° Rotating Platforms – Enables effortless directional changes without unloading

• High Load Capacities – Suitable for moving equipment up to 4 tonnes safely

• Heavy Duty Construction – Built for industrial and commercial use

• Smooth Manoeuvrability – Ideal for tight or restricted spaces

• Stable Load Distribution – Improves safety during movement

Choosing the Right Machine Moving Skate

When selecting rotating dollies or industrial skates, consider the following:

Load Capacity - Always choose skates with a combined load rating exceeding the total weight of the machinery being moved. Our range covers skates suitable for moving light equipment and furniture up to moving several tonnes of heavy load

Floor Type - Wheel materials should be suitable for the surface, such as concrete, epoxy, or smooth industrial flooring. Any uneven surfaces, then talk to us for the best solution

Manoeuvrability Requirements - Rotating skates are ideal where precision turning and positioning are required, especially in confined environments. Our steerable Heavy Duty Skates can come with a steering handle for ease and control  of directional movement.

Application - Consider whether the skates will be used for permanent relocation, temporary movement, or regular maintenance operations. Most commonly used in manufacturing facilities, engineering workshops, warehouses and logistics centres. Lighter duty dollies tend to be used in office and retail environments.
