Adjust to different working conditions

  • Simply move clips on the guide rods to set the socket descend level for different rail heights.
  • Set the workheads to handle different base widths for accurate clip insertion placement.
  • Position inner and outer workhead guns to align for different screw hole patterns.
  • Switch easily between installation, retraction, and de-stressing functions with simple operator controls.
  • Completely remove screws - to perform rail pad maintenance - using an optional hook workhead assembly.
  • Quickly reverse direction on the track using the integrated turntable.

High production levels

Use the dual-workhead mode to efficiently operate both the inside and outside workhead guns simultaneously. In addition, four workhead guns allow you to rapidly install or de-stress all four clips at the same time.

Rail de-stressing functionality

Use the integrated de-stress mode to apply or relieve screw pressure on the clips, in timed intervals, when performing rail stressing activities.
