60T Handling of railway carriages
Objective
The objective of the investment was to find a well-functioning solution for transporting railway carriages along an easily changeable transport route. It was also important to find a transport system with a sufficiently large capacity at moderate costs.
Construction
The air film equipment consists of an air film transporter including load pallets onto which the railway carriages are placed. The transporter is equipped with a remote control unit for maximum safety and controllability.
Result
Unlike the existing transport equipment, the air film-based alternative always allows for the transport route to be altered when required. Economically the air film-based alternative was the optimal solution since no major changes in the construction were required.
