Shunting Vehicles

Shunting Vehicle It enable the maneuvering of railway vehicle trains at short distances without starting the towing cars. Electric shunting vehicles provide fuel savings, shorter maintenance times, increased occupational safety, and improved operational performance with more efficient and flexible mobility compared to locomotives, trams, high-speed trains, and subways. Electric shunting vehicles, which can also be manufactured to move on railways and roads, offer flexible and fast operation in areas such as workshops, warehouses, and maintenance stations.

• Engineered with high vibration and fire resistance, ensuring reliable operation in extreme environmental conditions.
• Supports both manual and remote operation, allowing multi-unit handling with a single operator, improving operational flexibility and efficiency.
• Optimized for quick maintenance and troubleshooting, ensuring swift interventions and minimal downtime.
• Configurable for various rail gauges, supporting 1000mm to 1676mm rail spans, as well as customized special track widths upon request.
• Designed to meet regional railway system requirements, ensuring compatibility with specific operational and environmental conditions.

Road-rail shunting vehicles offer high operational flexibility under different site conditions thanks to their dual-mode capability to operate both on rail and on road. They are an ideal solution for fast, practical, and efficient shunting operations, especially in confined areas, maintenance sites, workshops, depots, and facilities with limited rail access.

Shunting locomotives are powerful and reliable vehicles developed for heavy-duty operations requiring high tractive effort in industrial facilities and railway yards. Available in different traction configurations, these solutions play a key role in modern railway logistics and site operations by enabling the safe, stable, and efficient movement of heavy loads.
