KBK Demag Rail

 

Demag KBK enclosed track rail is good for lighter capacity high speed handling applications.  JRG Handling Systems as an authorized Demag dealer provides Demag Cranes & Components engineered ergonomic solutions using Demag and KBK components and systems.

The heart of every Demag KBK system begins with patented Demag KBK enclosed track. This track is ideal for closed loop systems or operations where many lifting devices are used in close proximity. Demag KBK can be used to design both simple or automated monorail systems or can be used as an overhead traveling crane and allows
for the use of other material handling components and lifting devices.

A recent addition to the KBK Demag Rail family includes KBK Alu aluminum rail for installations offering unmatched flexibility in design and lower mass both for easier movement and lower hanger loads on lightweight building structures. Plant rearrangement is quickly and easily accomplished because KBK Alu components can be readily dis-assembled, moved and reinstalled. What is a monorail today can be a crane tomorrow.

Other applications for Demag KBK Rail include:


Monorail Crane Systems
Single line monorail for linear handling to interconnect individual stations or work areas.  Demag KBK2R rail has an internal bus bar in the top of the track that allows continuous electrification to hoists and other equipment while going through switches, around curves and through turntables.

Single Girder Suspension Cranes
Get full work area floor coverage from overhead suspended rail. Shortest approach dimensions. Low dead weight. Easily movable by hand even under full load.
   

Double Girder Suspension Cranes
For handling heavier loads or longer spans than single girder cranes with lower headroom than many other types of enclosed rail.

Stacker Cranes
For storing goods into and retrieving them out of racks. Optimal utilization of building height. Stacker mast with rotating mechanism travels laterally on a double girder crane.
   
Key components of KBK Demag rail include:

Trolleys

KBK trolleys are equipped with hard nylon wheels running on sealed anti-friction bearings with life-time lubrication. Side guide rollers center the trolley resulting in clean, quiet and nearly wear-free operation.

Suspension Hangers
KBK hanger suspensions can attach to most wide flange support structures. Horizontal stresses transferred into the support structure are minimized because KBK hangers pendulate at two points. Lengths of threaded rods permit suspensions of different heights as well as easy adjustment for track leveling. Spring clip couplings allow for fast installation and a positive connection. Available in two styles, Classic (tension forces only) and Ergo (tension and compression forces).
