E-Z Base Form Set
The Besser E-Z Base
manhole form set is designed to pour, strip and go! The equipment is
engineered to deliver precast production efficiency by making setup,
pouring and stripping easy, economical and labor-saving. Flexibility is key!
Form sets can be tailored to individual production needs and adapted to
various diameters and lengths. Base configurations may be either the
standard extended style or with optional roll-back wheel assemblies. E-Z
Base operation is clean and simple, involving one person and one crane.

E-Z Setup
Once the
reinforcing cage is in place on the core, a turn of an actuator locks both the
core and step pins into the pouring position. The actuator is located on the
outside of the form set for easy access and is linked to the core by a gear
assembly. The form (jacket) is next lowered over the core and pallet and locked
into position, completing the setup.
Forms can be one or two-piece
in design, and both styles can incorporate quick-adjust rollover trunnions. By
simply pulling one pin, the producer can adjust the trunnion for varying product
heights. This adjustability allows the producer to easily roll the balanced form
over, either empty or full. To further accelerate cycle times, forms with
optional roll-back wheel assemblies are available.
E-Z Pouring
Pouring
is simplified with the E-Z Base form set. The core, pallet and shoveling plate
are all attached to a portable, heavy-duty stand. This arrangement reduces cycle
times as repeated handling of these components is eliminated.
E-Z Stripping
After proper curing, the product is ready to
strip. A turn of the actuator collapses the core and retracts the step pin
assemblies. At the heart of this internal operation is the Besser core
collapser, recognized throughout the industry for its simplicity,
durability and efficiency.
The form
and product are raised and rotated to the stripping position utilizing the
rollover trunnions. The lock assembly is actuated to open the form, the
finished product is removed and the production process is complete.
The result?
Quality manhole products made with shorter setup and stripping times, with
an overall reduction in labor costs. Efficient E-Z Base form sets are
another reason that producers are turning to Besser for their wet cast
precast product needs.
The core collapser is known throughout the
precast
industry for its simplicity, durability and efficiency.
