Workshop equipment for use on the train
In the railway workshop, the right equipment plays a key role in carrying out maintenance and repair work safely and efficiently. Whether for work on trains, wheelsets or bogies - the workshop equipment must be robust, reliable and designed to meet the special requirements of railway technology.
Pit covers: Safety and flexibility
Workshop pit covers are indispensable for working on assembly and work pits. They increase safety when the pit is not in use and allow flexible utilisation of the workshop area. They are available in various designs:
- Pit covers made of aluminium - lightweight and durable, ideal for everyday use.
- Drive-on pit covers that can carry heavy loads and are suitable for workshops with limited space.
- Flexible solutions such as assembly pit covers that can be customised.
Lifting systems: heavy loads made easy
Lifting systems are essential for the maintenance of trains and carriages. These include:
- Lifting jacks from brands such as Autolift and Windhoff, which impress with their robust design and high load-bearing capacity.
- Underfloor lifting systems that save space in the workshop and enable efficient working.
- Roof working platforms that make access to high areas such as train roofs safe and convenient.
Transport solutions for the workshop
Mobility and flexibility are crucial in the railway workshop. Transport equipment such as transfer tables, turntables and transport trolleys make it possible to move trains, bogies or wheelsets efficiently. This equipment ensures that even heavy components reach their destination safely.
Test and measurement technology
Precise maintenance and diagnostics include test equipment such as:
- Wheel load scales for exact weight measurement and load distribution.
- Wheelset turning devices for processing and maintaining wheelsets.
- Bogie test stands, which can be used to test bogies for function and safety.
