Cable storage systems

Our cable and hose handling system is suspended from a sliding rail and permits fast longwall advancing and retreating.

The system can be adapted to different cable and hose diameters as well as lengths to suit the individual application requirements.

Shifting units, winches, and shunting trolleys are available for moving the system.

In addition, control cabinets, pumps and other devices required for the supply of the face can be taken along by the train system

Industrial Monorail System (IMS)

The IMS was used for the first time in 1998 for the construction of a power supply tunnel of BEWAG in Berlin.

After completion of the tunnel the IMS has been used as transport, maintenance, rescue, and fire fighting vehicle.

The IMS can be manually operated or radio remote-controlled and is able to reach any tunnel section within a short time.
