Walraven\u2019s product designers have recently implemented a number of improvements to the original Walraven Maxx heavy profile system. As a result the system is now even easier to use, with improved corrosion protection.<\/p>\n

So what’s new?\"new<\/h2>\n

Brand new Hammerfix connector<\/strong> allows faster installation and easier adjustments compared to when using screw or bolt fixings. The Hammerfix can be used for making all connections in the system. Find out more here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

All parts now HDG (hot dip galvanised)<\/strong> including the Hammerfix connector bolt, ensuring corrosion protection across the whole system (excluding the traditional bolt set).<\/p>\n

Improved hole pattern design<\/strong> on all parts so that hole patterns line up perfectly when connecting parts together. \u00a0Quicker, easier construction.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Improved base plate design<\/strong> including higher safe load performance as it is now made from a stronger steel (S275), and adjustments to the anchor holes for easy fixing with throughbolts.<\/p>\n

Simplified system<\/strong> \u2013 removal of a few unnecessary parts means this system really is a simple modular kit which can be used for a multitude of MEP installations.<\/p>\n

BIM objects<\/strong> will be made available for all parts soon.<\/p>\n

Essential load data<\/h2>\n

You can view load values for the Walraven Maxx profile system in our\u00a0 Maxx Technical Data Sheet.<\/a><\/p>\n

Making the job on-site safer and faster!<\/h2>\n

\"newThe key overall benefits of using a modular system mean you can construct heavy duty load-bearing frames quicker and safer than using traditional welded steel methods. They also offer increased flexibility, as the simple \u2018kit\u2019 formats can be used to construct a whole range of support types quickly and easily. The system can also be pre-assembled off-site.<\/p>\n

In building services heavy modular systems are used for plant rooms, pipe bridges, multi-service tunnels and more. They are so flexible and adaptable in their construction that they are becoming a popular choice for contractors looking to make efficient installations.<\/p>\n

Technical Support<\/h2>\n

When you have a requirement for a heavy duty modular steel frame, our Technical Support Team can assist you with the design of a suitable support frame for your installation. We can analyse your installation environment and carry out calculations, analyse forces and other technical requirements in order to design an optimal solution.<\/p>\n

Designs can range from really simple structures to more complex designs where required.<\/p>\n
