RailmasterTM Monorail Systems

RailmasterTM Track

A dense uniform fine textured steel track of high tensile strength, with a profile incorporating a flat tread allowing accurate bearing of trolley wheels for efficient operation. The heavy flanges offer high resistance to wear and peining down under applied rolling loads.
Expanded RailmasterTM Track - where large spans are required a series of expanded RailmasterTM track sections is available incorporating running surfaces of the same tough material.

Electrification - Kant ShockTM shielded conductor bars are generally supplied for most applications unless otherwise specified. For ambient temperatures in excess of 55ºC (130ºF) an open bar system is available.

RailmasterTM Trolleys
These heavy duty trolleys are designed specially for use on RailmasterTM and Expanded RailmasterTM runway systems. They are available as two, or with a special alloy steel load bar, four wheeled units capable of handling 5000 - 10,000 lb (2,268 - 4,536 kg). Eight-wheeled hoist block adaptations are also available in capacities up to 17,000 lb (7711 kg).

The trolleys are equipped with drop forged flangeless wheels which have hardened machine treads and are equipped with heavy duty, double row precision ball bearings. The machined steel axles are accommodated in a heavy malleable yoke casting and lubrication is provided through the axle by a Tecalemit fitting. To reduce track scuffing all trolleys are of the articulating type, being seated on a thrust-race combined with a spherical washer. Double-row ball bearing lateral guide rollers are also fitted to keep the trolleys in perfect alignment under high speed travel.
Where a fixed adaptation is provided for a hoist block, the standard load bar may be replaced by a double channel or angle load bar. The design will incorporate swivel suspension fittings between the trolleys and the load bar will be arranged to pivot across the track. In the event of side pulling occurring or when traveling under power at speeds, on systems including bends, the arrangement ensures that the collector gear remains in contact with the conductors at all times, and that no adverse loading is, transmitted to the track.
