Preferred use of the converted grinder in tunnels and urban environments
Increased user-friendliness due to reduced hand-arm vibration
Infinitely adjustable power
Minimised noise emissions
Elimination of exhaust emissions
Up to 60 minutes of runtime per battery charge
Predictive work planning by monitoring the battery charge status
Commercially available lithium-ion batteries
Charging time of just 75 minutes for a 12 Ah battery
Multiple charging options available, including mobile charging
Trackscan Use-B
The ultrasonic rail inspection system Trackscan Use-B detects, among other things, deep head checks, squats and corrosion at the rail foot. The result data can also be imported into the customer’s own infrastructure data.
