Mecalac has launched the MRail-Series of equipment for railway works, comprising four models: two rail-road excavators on tracks – the 106MRail and the 136MRail (from 10 to 13 tons) – and two on wheels – the 156MRail and the 216MRail (from 15 to 21 tons).
The 106MRail and 136MRail tracked excavators build on the MCR concept. This concept, the fusion of a compact loader and an excavator, brings the speed and productivity of a loader to the 360° rotation of an excavator. They are designed to be the ultimate utility machine for the majority of service and maintenance works. They are also ideal for works in tunnels or in tight areas.
The 106MRail is the smallest machine of the MRail-Series. It features a two-piece boom with offset as standard and is extremely compact. Easy to operate, it is also the ideal support for heavier piece of equipment.
The 136MRail provides even higher performance to increase overall productivity on national rail networks. It is equipped with the upmost safety features. It can be fitted with a pneumatic system for rail trailers and rail car brakes.
The 156MRail and 216MRail wheeled excavators are based on the MWR concept. They provide solutions for all types of tracks and a high degree of freedom of movement, especially when moving the boom under height constraints like catenaries.
The 156MRail is dedicated to urban networks, subways and private tracks. It is a medium-sized machine that meets the requirements for rail applications without the costly and complex systems linked to regulations. It is the easiest and most profitable solution for working on rails.
The 216MRail is the strongest machine for the toughest jobs, always with zero compromise on manoeuvrability, agility and compactness. It is compatible with the EN15746 regulation, the most stringent regulation for the rail segment. It has all the necessary safety features and the pneumatic system for trailers.
