New Concrete Tie Handling
and Spreading to Grade

For years On-Track has been utilizing tie panel clamps designed and manufactured in house. Our skilled operators are able to transload 7 wood or concrete ties in panel configuration at the rate of 4 panels per minute. On-Track’s telescoping tie spreader has the ability to clamp onto 7 ties and telescope the ties to proper spacing for placement onto grade.

Our tie spacer can also be used for loading and unloading panels. Both panel clamp and spreader clamp were proven extremely successful handling, distributing and spacing ties to grade at both Edmonton and Calgary Light Rail Transit expansion projects.

 

With On-Track’s Panel Clamps we can:


  • Handle both wood and concrete ties
  • Lift 7, 12 and 24 ties per panel configuration
  • Telescope the panel of 7 ties to proper track spacing
