Underground Train Bogie Frame
Industry: Rail
Application: Tightening/un-tightening of bolts on an underground train bogie frame
Problem:
- Difficult access to the bolts on the bogie frame caused by beam & sole-bar obstructions
- Health & safety issues associated with tightening/un-tightening of the bolts manually
- Avoiding damage to the high grade Aluminium section of the bogie system during tightening/un-tightening of the bolts
Solution:
- Straight reaction platform for tightening/un-tightening of 55mm A/F bolts (position of wrench can be altered to suit each bolt)
- Cranked reaction platform for tightening/un-tightening of 75mm A/F bolt
Features:
- Integral reaction posts
- Designed for use with direct fit hydraulic wrench
- Manufactured from high quality Carbon steel for strength & longevity
Benefits:
- Avoids reacting on the bogie frame
- Job specific tooling saves time
- Spreads the load when reacting
- Measured & correct torque applied, giving improved joint integrity
- Overcomes the access problems caused by the beam & sole-bar obstructions
- A single hydraulic wrench with two reaction platforms will suit all the bolts on this application
- Safe & accurate controlled bolting process
Tooling:
- Christie 2DFTW-36 A/F (Max. 1866 Nm) Hydraulic Torque Wrench
- Christie Hydraulic Pump
