Bespoke Lifting Equipment for Handling and Rotating Wheel Assemblies

This attachment has been designed to suit the handling and rotation of train wheel assemblies and the individual components for both the ease of assembly and for maintenance in a safe and controlled manner.

This bespoke lifting equipment is for three component train wheels and is supplied complete with the assembly support stand.

The components are clamped with pads which are made to suit each component and they can be raised and lowered with ease and rotated horizontally through 360 degrees, to make for simple assembly.

The horizontal rotation is provided by manual operation with indexing pins at 90 degree intervals. This provides the operator with full control during the lifting and rotating processes.

The wheel components are clamped between bespoke clamping pads which are specifically designed to provide safe and secure handling of each individual component including those with a tapered outside diameter.
