Manufactured
in France
All our products are designed by our engineering department. They are assembled in our workshops located in France (Grenoble - Alpes) by our specialized technicians.
Over 30 years' experience in re-railing with streetcar, tram-trains and metro manufacturers and operators.
In addition to reliable, high-performance equipment, SAMS Rerailing offers the added experience of an exclusive, fast and safe re-railing process.
Regularly working in the field with manufacturers and operators, SAMS technicians explore a wide range of derailment situations to enhance our processes for as many situations as possible, even the most extreme.
Security
The presence of lateral clearances ensures that the cylinder remains vertical even in extreme positions. The car's lifting range describes a circular arc rather than a straight line during translation. This unique design eliminates the risk of cylinder slippage in all situations.
Versatility
The re-railing kit can only be inserted from one side, even in tunnels or near platforms. This distinguishes it from monoblock beam-mounted systems. It also enables cars to be moved in a single operation by lifting each of its two axles (depending on the manufacturer's streetcar, tram-train or metro recommendations).
Ergonomics
SAMS equipment weighs less than a single self-supporting rail system. This simplifies handling with just two operators. The self-supporting CRP rail is easy to handle, thanks to castors that retract automatically under load. The rail stroke is 500 mm to limit the number of operations.
14/28-ton and 24/48-ton re-railing kits.
The reference kit can be customized for all types of track-bound rolling stock (up to 12 tons). It includes :
- Pneumatic pre-filling kit (cushion + bottles)
- Hydraulic power pack, hoses and emergency hand pump
- Two lifting cylinders
- Two lifting cylinders
