PURPOSE
RAFAMET 3RS Rail-Road Shunter is designed for shunting / manoeuvring of the rolling stock of maximum total mass up to 350 tonnes. The shunter moves on rails and flat surfaces of e.g. production workshops, manoeuvring areas, loading platforms within enclosed industrial facilities (railways, metro, tram depot, ports, etc.). The 3RS hunter can be used as auxiliary equipment for Undefloor Wheel Lathe.
The 3RS Shunter is driven by four (4) wheels with tyres of abrasion resistant polyurethane. Each wheel is provided with own drive consisting of AC motor and gear transmission making it possible to rotate around their axes.
In the rail mode the 3RS shunter is guided on the rails by means of four (4) hydraulically lowered and lifted steel wheels. In order to ensure unobstructed operations while towing and spotting the vehicles over an Underfloor Wheel Lathe, there is a separate set of four (4) lowered and lifted guiding wheels installed between the driving wheels. In the road mode the guiding wheels are lifted.
