Pandrol’s Precision Frog Grinder (09200A) is a hydraulic-powered, track-mounted machine that brings detailed, four-axis grinding to the field.
With accurate four-axis grinding, Pandrol’s Precision Frog Grinder ensures precise, repeatable results, no matter the operator’s skills and experience.
The grinder’s simple, two-part design allows for quick set-up and clearing, saving on track time.
The flexibility to change from a straight stone to a cup stone allows the operator to use one tool for grinding a complete maintenance program, including grinding out frog defects, blending out SSC and reprofiling frogs.
The grinder’s versatility is enhanced by the availability of 8’ base rails for blending out surface defects over greater distances than the standard 4’ base rails allow.
Vibration and dust isolation contribute to safe working conditions and practices.
The Precision Frog Grinder is compact in size, making it easy to transport and store.
The Precision Frog Grinder has been designed to allow for accurate, repeatable movement in any of the four axes.
The height and position of the stone can be adjusted within the base frame. In addition, the angle of the stone can be regulated for precise elevations and reprofiling.
The base frame can be fully adjusted and locked to the angle of any frog, using an easy reference line and precision adjustment.
All vibration and grinding dust created while working on frogs is isolated from the operator.
The Precision Frog Grinder can be used with a straight stone for flange ways and rail sides, and a cup stone for precise grinding of the tops and sides of rails.
The grinder and its base are compact in size, easing transportation and storage.
Designed specifically for finish grinding of field welds, the Profile Grinder grinds the top and sides of the rail to the original profile.
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.
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.
Pandrol have designed three types of track jacks: hydraulic, mechanical and obstructionless. They have all been designed for easy use, maximum operator safety and to be high performing in all working conditions.
