DESIGN, DEVELOPMENT AND FABRICATION OF NIKE ZEUS HANDLING EQUIPMENT

Abstract

Research concerns the development of handling equipment for the nose cone and the warhead of the NIKE ZEUS missile. The equipment was to consist of two slings and a dolly; one sling for removing the nose cone from its packing box and for replacing it after the warhead had been installed. The dolly was required for intermediate handling and assembly work. A design was agreed upon which appeared to meet the needs for handling the NIKE ZEUS warhead nose cone. (Author)
