Safe, Reliable Field Operation
GREX offers a hydraulic conversion package for air-operated side-dumping cars. The design is simple and rugged with few customized parts.
The HydraDump conversion offers many important benefits: Enhanced field reliability; smooth and constant lifting action for better control; dependable and rugged construction, using off-the-shelf components; extended maintenance cycles compared to air-operated at the top of the cycle.
Use of standard railroad components Operates from locomotive auxiliary air Safely and reliably dump loads in excess of 100 tons
Air with hydraulic assist
RITAIN’s Railway Industry Association (Hall 2.2, stand 215, Hall 26, stand 319) is once again hosting an array of British suppliers and manufacturers at the British pavilion in Halls 2.2 and 26. This year 40 companies will be in Berlin including Findlay Irvine (Hall 26, stand 319F) which will display its DCU390 range of data loggers which are designed for rail condition monitoring applications including on point machines, track circuits and point heating. The Railway Engineering Company (Hall 2.2, stand 215E) will exhibit a range of software applications for railway signalling and operations, including TREsim, a full-fidelity signalling simulation system which can replicate signalling workstations from the major OEMs and run a simulated timetable service for training and competence management as well as validation of infrastructure change. TRE will also demonstrate TREsa which is a SIL2 automatic route setting system to assist the efficiency and safety of operations for signallers by providing improved control over a wider area particularly during times of service perturbation. Rowe Hankins (Hall 2.2, stand 215C) will showcase its portfolio of wheel-track interface products including its intelligent wheel flange lubrication system, iWFL, and Falcon, the intelligent controller of the iWFL system. Hawks, the company’s top of the rail lubrication system which is used to counter rolling contact fatigue, will also be on display along with the NIC361 Series Monitor a non-intrusive measurement device that can detect variations in current. Mechan (Hall 2.2, stand 215M) will showcase its newly designed Microlink jack control system which can lift multiple vehicles simultaneously. Mechan recently installed Britain’s largest single system of lifting jacks at Alstom’s depot in Longsight, near Manchester (pictured below).

Vision uses only four with connectors attached directly to the printed circuits avoiding the use of cables. Georgetown Rail Equipment, United States, (Hall 22b, stand 218) will showcase its permanent way solutions, including Aurora, a fully automated device which detects the condition of wood and concrete sleepers at up to 62km/h using a combination of enhanced cameras and a
