Grab assembly for rail transport
The grab assembly is designed for transporting rail packages (from 1 to 6 pieces) with a maximum length of 120 meters. The transport system consists of 16 grabs, each suspended on its own hoist, interconnected and controlled from a control panel or radio. Depending on the length of the rails being transported, the operator can disconnect individual sections. The grabs allow for handling rails in various quantities, depending on the configuration, which can range from 1 to 6 pieces, based on the rail profile. The system maintains full functionality, enabling material handling, rack loading, and wagon loading.
Construction:
The grab is built from a welded frame made of closed profiles, equipped with rotating levers and support feet. The rotation of the levers and adjustment of the spacing are achieved using a gear motor and actuator. The position of the support feet in the open/closed position is confirmed by inductive sensors. Each grab is equipped with a control cabinet.
Characteristics:
- adaptation for transporting different types of rails through adjustable grab elements,
- on the control device (remote), the operator can select the mode corresponding to the rail type (width of the support feet),
- number of transport rails: From 1 to 6, depending on the type,
- length of transport rails: 36m, 60m, 70m, 75m, 90m, 108m, 120m.
