Bogie Mover

Description

The tractive pushers are pedestrian operated and battery powered, designed to push and pull train wheelsets and bogies. Used in rail applications this Tractive unit will move up to 25 or 50 tons. They ensure that operators can enjoy safe and efficient handling at all times. Simple to use, robust and ergonomically designed.

The unit is connected with the bogie by means of a coupler to push/pull from the front (using a union with the frame), o from the side (using the eyelets of the axle boxes).

Standard Composition – Includes battery state indicator with service hour meter, industrial solid treaded tyres, 10A on-board charger, 85A/h sealed lead-acid batteries.

Bogie lifting system

Description

There are two available Bogies lifting systems, underground systems, integrated in the workshop floor, or mobile systems consisting of hydraulic jacks.

Having successfully implemented these two systems for different purposes, our experts know and understand the requirements of the various railway vehicles and are able to adapt the lifting system to the needs of any workshop.

If you need a solution to make the wheels axles rotate or you are simply looking for a suitable system to unassembled the bogie elements, this is the ideal solution to meet your needs.

Underfloor lifting system

DESCRIPTION

This lifting system is designed to lift a train following these steps:

  1. Lifting the complete train: The lifting platforms raise the entire train which rests on the wheels tread.
  2. Holding the carbody lifted: The carbody rests lifted by means of holding spindles, in order to remove the bogies.
  3. Lowering the bogie: Keeping the box raised, the platforms go down with the bogies for maintenance work.

The necessary tools to carry out maintenance operations can be connected to the power panels that are fitted in the system.

TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS

This unit is designed with a special rail system on which cars travel the entire length of the system on the wheels tread. Once the wheels are in the lifting area of the pit, the lifting operation can be carried out, following the process explained above.

Lifting table

Description

The compact design of the lifting table makes it a very solid and stable lifting device. It consists of two high-quality hydraulic cylinders that raise the platform up to almost 2 meters.

It is fitted with maintenance-free bearings to optimize long-term performance.

The table includes foot protection plates on three sides of the base frame, a protective curtain extending from the base to the lift platform, and fixed wheel stops at each end of the lift tracks.

The lifting table travels on rails. Its movement is controlled by a pendant remote control, and it is battery driven.

It has been designed and built with eyebolts, which allow the table to be lifted and positioned by means of an overhead crane.

Bogie Turntable

Description

The Bogie Turntables are used for turning bogies and similar units. They enable to change bogies of track routes within small spaces and in any angle and can connect multiple rail tracks.

Basically, the turntable consists of a solid lower frame and upper frame with a cover, which are connected by a center pin unit.

The upper frame is supported in the outer area by various travelling rollers bearings, which guarantees higher stability and carrying capacity upon crossing and turning.

There are two types of Bogie Turntables available, with electric motor for automatic turning or manual turning operation.

TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The turntables are equipped with a locking unit which centers and fixes the turntable in the required limit positions via a tipping sheet steel plate. The locking device needs released manually by the operator, before turning. At the locking wedge two screws and nuts are mounted, which enable a perfect adjustment of the wedge inside the recess.

Lifting Jacks

Description

The lifting systems consist of groups of four lifting jacks, with load capacity ranging from 5 tons per jack for lifting light vehicles, to 40 tons per jack for lifting heavier vehicles such as railway inspection cars or locomotives.

Each group of four jacks is controlled by a separate control box. To achieve a synchronized up/down movement of entire compositions, the different control boxes of the groups of four jacks, can be grouped into a central control box.

Each lifting jack is equipped with a pallet truck system for moving them on the floor of the workshop, and eyebolts for moving them with an overhead crane, to different installation areas.
