The 136MRail is based on Mecalac’s proven compact skid excavator (MCR) concept.
The 136MRail, a crawler-based excavator with factory-integrated hi-rail, combines all the functions of a state-of-the-art excavator with exceptional lifting, towing and loading capabilities. With its rail gear raised, the 136MRail can be operated as an excavator on regular terrain, offering operators maximum versatility with a single machine. The 136MRail’s patented boom makes it ideal for use in confined areas, such as subway tunnels. The boom incorporates an offset feature for applications, such as ditch cleaning alongside the tracks.
These multi function machines are excavators, loaders and material handlers in one. Attachments such as grapple buckets, tie removers, power brooms and trenching buckets allow users to accomplish a wide variety of tasks around rail systems. The 136MRail provides heightened versatility by offering all these functions both on and off the rail. Travel speed on rail is 20 kph, and off rail is 9.6 kph. The machine can move on and off the rail with ease, allowing efficient access to job sites anywhere along the track.
The 136MRail unlike traditional machines offers an articulated two-piece boom that is situated on the side of the cab. This allows the operator to angle the first part of the boom back to increase stability during lifting, which enhances safety and productivity overall but especially for those operators working in confined areas such as tunnels. The 136MRail also drives productivity for its users through an innovative 750Lskid loader bucket that provides 72% more capacity compared to other machines of its size. The 136MRail can scoop and load ballast, or conversely unload and spread ballast on the track.
