Limited Rail Clamps
Limited Rail Clamps (LRC) are designed to clamp on both
sides of a rail. They are guided by hardened steel
guides along the rail and are designed for cranes riding on a rail with minimum vertical fluctuations.
They are spring set and can be hydraulically OR electrically released.

Application
Benefits
- Rail Clamp mechanism guided along the rail with hardened steel
guiding blocks - Top mounted hydraulic cylinder with no rod connection, easily
removable for quick maintenance and replacement - Serrated shoes protected from hitting the rails sides by guiding blocks
- No need for lubrification points for the floating mechanism
Simple design eliminates expensive replacement of profiled guide wheels with worn-out flanges- Floating mechanism allowing compensation of horizontal ±25mm and vertical ±5mm rail deviation
- Clamp release indication signal provided by proximity switch
- Simple mechanism with small number of moving parts for easy
maintenance
