Rail Tug Welding and Cutting Tractor

Rail Tug Welding and Cutting Tractor

The Rail Tug is a digitally controlled tractor designed for the mechanization of welding and thermal cutting processes. Featuring a rack and pinion drive system with electronic speed control, the Rail Tug creates weld bead geometry which is exact to your specifications, reducing costly over welding and decreasing filler metal usage.

  • Compact, lightweight design
  • Closed-loop speed control system based on electric motor with encoder – ensures increased accuracy of speed
  • Rack and pinion drive
  • Consistent heat input reduces distortion
  • Reduces wasted filler metal – eliminates over welding
  • Digital LED display for presetting of travel speed
  • Automatic arc on/off initiates welding and travel simultaneously
  • Oxy-fuel and plasma cutting possible with optional accessories
  • Suitable for variety of circumferential and irregular surface applications down to minimum radius of 100 mm (4”)
    1. Ring tracks on diameters from 200 mm (8”) OD up to 3 m (10 ft) OD
    2. Hi-Flex tracks on diameters from 1500 mm (59”) OD upwards
    3. Custom rolled tracks on diameters from 3 m (10 ft) OD up to 10 m (32 ft) OD
    4. Semi-flexible tracks can be bended to minimum radius of 5 m (16 ft) without permanent deformation
  • Quick-clamping torch holder mechanism for different types of torches with diameters of 16–22 mm (0.63–0.87”); up to 35 mm (1.38”) option
  • Precise torch adjustment with screw drive cross slide
  • Convenient external 85-250 V power supply
  • Improves working environment – removes operator from heat and fumes
