Full-service by SOMA: Secure machine transport, logistics, and professional commissioning

Transporting an industrial plant is much more than just travelling from A to B. Large dimensions, sensitive equipment, international routes, strict time frames and complex assembly processes make every delivery a highly demanding project. SOMA masters this complexity, from precise planning and safe transport to commissioning on site.

Machine transport, a logistical speciality

Industrial plants are among the most challenging goods to transport. High weights, customised components, sensitive control technology and international border crossings require maximum care in preparation and execution.

Logistics in detail: Where precision is crucial

Dimensions & weights: special transports, axle loads, route licences
International authorisations: different country regulations, customs and handling processes
Loading processes: coordination of cranes, forklifts, load distribution plans and securing systems
Transport-sensitive components: sensors, testing technology, electronic assemblies
Time-critical coordination: tight unloading windows, synchronised customer deadlines
Risk and damage prevention: packaging concepts, weather protection, accident prevention

What looks like a simple transport from the outside is actually a highly precise, technical process and this is precisely where SOMA's strength lies.

Example Serbia: Eight 40-tonne trucks, five countries, 48 hours – delivered right on time

A current project shows just how complex and demanding such processes are: the delivery of a large-volume SOMA system to Pančevo, Serbia.

8 lorries in the 40-tonne segment
9 hours loading time
Transport via Germany, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Serbia
48 hours of non-stop coordination until arrival at the customer's site

This project is an example of how SOMA not only designs, develops, builds and delivers machines, but also offers a comprehensive end-to-end logistics concept that works internationally.

On site: Installation & commissioning by SOMA

After a safe arrival, the crucial next step begins: professional installation and commissioning. Our teams of experts provide support:

Unloading & positioning of the system components
Mechanical assembly
Electrical installation and cabling
Software setup, parameterisation and test runs
Initial production, fine tuning and quality assurance
Training of the operating personnel

In this way, SOMA ensures that every system starts up stably, reliably and productively at its destination.
