Rail System

Hydrema H-drive Rail system for 9A and 9C mode: 9A Hydraulic Direct drive rail wheels, with integrated service- and parking brake. 2 speed wheel motors for working and transport mode. Max speed 26 km/h. Standard wheels lifted 130 mm in 9A to avoid damage to rail sensors. Fully maintenance free brakes, high tractive effort, and no tire wear. Different track gauges available. 9C Rubber wheels driving direct on rails. Hydraulic Wheel motors in neutral. Traction from rubber wheels direct to tracks. Brakes both on rubber- and rail wheels. Constant hydraulic control on rail wheel pressure to tracks for maximum safety against derailing. Driving in 9C gives high comfort and very high tractive effort.
