SP20 Handling System for Track Sections - Colmar

Machine for the lifting and laying of track panels, switches (turnouts). Structure in sturdy electro welded steel, with 4 vertical lifting rods. Hydraulic pincers to grab the switches under the rail base. The 4 vertical lifting rods allow the machine to be loaded in autonomy onto rail wagons or trucks/lorries, without the need of auxiliary systems. Possibility of towing the machine on rail tracks by means of tow bars, after disconnecting the propeller transmission shaft. The four vertical lifting rods can, on request, be supplied with an extension of m/m 1400 or m/m 1800. Longitudinal movements of the load, of 400 mm (±200).

The movement and the alignment of the switch or of the track panel with the rail track are performed at the maximum safety level, due to the machine being equipped with 4 supporting legs.

A service rail track allows a fast laying of the switch.
