Rerailing systems for tramways, tram-trains and metros
SAMS rerailing systems are the safest, most versatile, and most user-friendly systems on the market.
For 30 years, they have been designed, developed and improved in close collaboration with constructors and operators. They are available in standard versions (up to 48 tonnes), or can be custom made.
They are the solution to rerail every type of tramways, tram-trains and metros quickly and safely. The systems have been tested in extreme situations: loose and slippery grounds, tunnels, platforms, curves, slopes…

Rerailing
process

Ultra-sturdy and reliable, SAMS also provides an extended 10 years warranty on all our rerailing equipment (under normal conditions of use and maintenance).
French
fabrication
All our products are designed by our engineering team. They are then fabricated, assembled and tested in our factory in France (Grenoble – Alpes) by our specialized technicians.
More than 30 years of rerailing experience with constructors and operators of tramways, tram-trains and metros.
SAMS’ rerailing offer is not limited to an efficient and reliable equipment; we also propose an exclusive methodology for safe and fast rerailing.
Often on the field with constructors and operators, SAMS’ technicians investigate real-life derailing situations, even the most extreme ones, and users’ preferences to constantly improve our equipment and process.
Safety
In motion, the horizontal plays ensure that the jacks remain straight, even in the most extreme positions. This unique design eliminates any risk of the equipment slipping, at all times.
Versatility
The rerailing equipment can be fitted under the vehicle from one side, making rerailing possible under a tunnel or near a platform. That is a decisive advantage over other existing systems using a single rerailing beam. It is also possible to shift a vehicle in one operation placing one rerailing device on each bogie (in accordance to constructor’s recommendations).
User-friendly
Due to its design, SAMS’ systems are lighter than single beam systems. Two technicians can operate it safely. The two CRP rerailing devices are easy to handle thanks to retractable wheels. The 500 mm sliding stroke was designed to reduce the number of required operations.
Rerailing kits 14/28 tonnes and 24/48 tonnes
The standard rerailing kit can be adapted to all kind of rolling stock (up to 12 tonnes). It includes:
- A Pneumatic lifting kit (air bag + bottles)
