Maintenance and lifting equipment for Rail
Mobile lifting jacks with fixed claws
Lifting columns with fixed claws are entirely mobile and are therefore placed under the vehicle before each use. They are perfectly suited for the lifting of numerous vehicles, are multipurpose and benefit from maneuverability. This solution is perfect for operations needing a lifting capacity up to 82,000 lbs per column.
Mobile lifting jacks with extendable claws
Mobile lifting columns with retractable / extendable claws are suited for the lifting of complete trains. Synchronizations up to 36 jacks are feasible, making possible to lift a complete train with an iso-leveling tolerance of +/- 0.2 inch for an installation of 1,300 feet. These columns are also designed to be moved laterally on rails, either manually or motorized. In the same way, claws can be moved either electronically or manually.
