Curved Conductor Rail

Have you ever see a train going around a curve and wonder how does a train stay powered in movement? The answer to this question is one special piece of equipment, in the form of a curved conductor rail! This is a very special rail, which makes rail, crane and other vehicles move on tight turns without any problems.

So there are many advantages to the curved conductor rail. First of all that removes the need for these big heavy cables hanging on top of the vehicles. They are dangerous because they can cause accidents and block the view for workers on the ground. Instead of installing overhead cables, the curved conductor rail is installed near-to-ground. The vehicles can then draw their power from the rail via components known as sliding shoes or pantographs, significantly increasing safety and making it easier to operate.

The solution for tight turns

Another feature of curved conductor rails that comes to our aid though — it can even handle sharp bends! Standard straight conductor rails can bend only a little, forcing vehicles to stay on prescribed paths. This could be an issue in areas with tight curves. In contrast, curved conductor rails are custom-made to any curve. In industrial areas with many tight turns and able to circulate freely, without restrictions, these vehicles are ideal.

A lot of other factors: Using curved conductor rails also allows for much more economy. Vehicles can also extract power directly from the rail while driving, which means they don’t have to carry away heavy batteries to store energy. This keeps the total weight of the vehicle down. This means that the car will use less fuel, run longer, and will require maintenance less frequently over the life of the vehicle.” And all of this ultimately leads to operations that are easier, less expensive.
