During aluminothermic welding, a deadhead of excess metal remains above the rail head. This was traditionally removed manually with a hammer and chisel. The Monobloc Electrical Weld Shear automates this process and removes the risk of damaging the rail.
The Monobloc Electrical Weld Shear is much safer to use than the traditional hammer and chisel method of reducing excess metal, which was hard work and exposed workers to projections of metal.
The adjustable blades and guiding rollers result in much greater precision than possible when removing the metal deadhead manually.
The powerful hydraulic unit significantly reduces grinding time, saving money and decreasing downtime.
The upper positioning of the handles on the shearing machine ensures the operator remains a good distance from the hot area, increasing safety.
The Monobloc Electrical Weld Shear’s compact design allows for excellent user flexibility.
The shear comes as an integral unit, with an embedded electrical hydraulic pump
Available in two versions – The Monobloc Electrical Weld Shear EME1 is a narrow unit, able to operate in turnouts thanks to its small size. The EME2 is wider, bringing more comfort when shearing through the mould
The shear is fitted with two hydraulic jacks that are able to produce a force of 21.5 tons under a pressure of 250 bars
Adjusting screws enable the blades’ height, lateral position and stroke to be fully adjusted
Locking systems fixed under the rail head prevent the shearing machine from rising up
Designed specifically for finish grinding of field welds, the Profile Grinder grinds the top and sides of the rail to the original profile.
Designed to screw/unscrew all types of bolts and drill holes in wooden sleepers, this high-efficiency tool is powered by a specially designed engine that ensures accurate, quick, reliable operation.
The 1” wrench is safe and efficient to use, with an anti-vibration design and an optional handle to provide the optimum work position for the task at hand.
With four-axis precision and the ability to use both straight and cup stones, this tool ensures quality grinding in the field.
This range of lightweight, powerful hand grinders – available in clockwise and counter-clockwise rotation – offers the ideal solution for precise, controlled grinding on rail.
Pandrol’s Multi-Purpose Grinder (06950A) is a versatile tool that is suitable for a wide range of field weld grinding operations.
Performing checks and adjustments is an important part of the welding and maintenance process, particularly on the ends of rails.
Designed to operate with the included battery-operated non-impacting drill, the simple chuck attachment allows easy installation of the shear so it is quickly operational on the track.
Excess metal remaining above the rail head during welding was traditionally removed manually with a hammer and chisel. The Weld Shear Hand Pump automates this process and reduces the risk of damaging the rail.
The ergonomic machine is self-supported on the rail thanks to its six insulated rollers. Its flexible design allows the user to adjust the grinder in any direction with ease.
quipped with a fail-safe braking system and supplied with a detachable brake and push handle, the Rail Lorry has a stand-alone, load-bearing rolling platform for use on track
