Rail and Sleeper Handling

Sleeper Layer SL850

Efficiently place up to 8 sleepers simultaneously with the Sleeper Layer SL850. Lifted into position, their correct placement is ensured by a precision gauging hydraulic system that spreads the sleepers to the desired spacing up to a maximum of 765 mm (with fewer sleepers the spacing can be extended further).

The SL850 has been meticulously engineered, extensively tested, and utilised with high productivity to excellent results in alignment, spacing, and positioning.
