Closure rail puller type CRP160

Looking for a high-performance closure rail puller that can ensure optimal rail position while your team handles rail closure welding? Contrail Machinery provides you with the Closure Rail Puller, type CRP160, a high-performance hydraulic device designed for pre-tensioning the rails to be welded. Engineered for strength, the Rail Puller CR160 provides unmatched pulling power, essential for efficient track alignment and maintenance. In order to perform closure welds, this machinery is able to pull the rails together with a force of up to 140 tons for pre-tensioning the Long Welded Rail in order to be fixed at the neutral temperature

The CRP 160 rail puller is compatible with the CR100 flash-butt welding machine and it works by synchronising with the head during the welding process, helping it to pull the excess force required to perform the rail closure welding works.

• The puller is connected through heavy-duty quick-disconnect couplings, so it can be easily installed or disconnected.
• The puller interface on the welding machine HMI is automatically activated when the puller is connected.
• The CRP 160 rail puller is a reliable and safe choice for rail maintenance and construction projects. Its system is designed with multiple safety protocols, including automatic shut-off mechanisms and emergency stop functions, which significantly reduce the risk of accidents.
