Ideal for rail changing operations
The digital, variable roller gager allows the CGS - Curve Gang Spiker to set rail gauge distances as well as perform spiking operations. The guide wheels stabilize the rail during gauging and spiking activities. The easy-to-operate, single-sided CGS features fast and powerful spike driving action using a CX Hammer-type workhead.
Compact and lightweight
The CGS is compact and lightweight, making it simple to load and unload. In addition, the machine’s open, modular design makes it easy to maintain.
Quickly adjust to different working conditions
Make simple adjustments - from inside the cab - to adapt the gun spacing for different hole patterns. Or quickly set the proximity switches to adjust the workhead to handle different rail heights. In addition, easily switch between settings for welded or jointed rail.
Bridges? No problem.
The optional bridge rail roller assembly allows the CGS - Curve Gang Spiker to spike tie plates on bridge rails.
Quickly load spikes
Use the attached boom and winch to quickly load spike kegs onto the rear storage rack; the winch handles loads up to 300 lbs. Or, include the optional bulk loader to use bulk spikes.
