state of art concerning Traversers.

Current development / trends in Manufacturing of

these equipment are discussed to show innovative
solution to build Traversers

Introduction to Type of Traverser
 Pit Traverser – Rolling stock is directly transferred from SR
(Shop Rails) to TTR (Rails mounted on Top of Traverser).

SURFACE TRAVERSER -SR-TR-TTR LEVELS & SOLUTIONS
Photo of Surface Traverser showing situation -because of Non-Compliance to Good Engineering
Practice, while constructing / maintaining Bay Area / laying SR / TR Levels. Photo clearly show that SR
laid at lower level > 100 mm (Instead of SR / TR at same level with a tolerance of + 10 mm), resulting
in Tongue held with bottom clearance > 140 / increased Entrance Height.

Solution by Unique: With 2 Piece Tongue Assembly / Springs Capable to Handle Higher deflection as seen
in the above photo, Traverser is made suitable to handle rolling stock (with higher bottom clearance).

SURFACE TRAVERSER PROVIDED WITH

FLEXIBLE (2 PIECE) TONGUE TO BRIDGE OVER
HIGH LEVEL VARIATIONS

Failure to maintain Rail levels results in increased Entrance Height. With 2 Piece Tongue
Traverser can handle wagons. Capability of Traverser to handle the rolling with lower
clearance will be adversely affected.

STANDARD SURFACE TRAVERSER IS NOT SUITABLE

FOR HANDLING ROLLING STOCK WITH CATTLE GUARD
(ENTRANCE HEIGHT < BOTTOM CLERANCE OF RAIL GUARD)
 UNIQUE INDUSTRIAL HANDLERS PVT.LTD.

SURFACE TRAVERSER WITH SLIGHTLY SUBMERGED CONSTRUCTION WAS SELECTED WITH

ENTRANCE HEIGHT RESTRICTED FOR HANDLING ROLLING STOCK WITH CATTLE GUARD

AS PROPOSED SURFACE TRAVERSER WILL NOT BE REQUIRED TO HANDLE ROLLING STOCK WITH
CATTLE GUARD, ON REQUEST FROM CLEINT STANDARD SURFACE TRAVERSER IS NOW PROPOSED

INSTALLED, FOR IMPROVED SAFETY & PERFORMANCE.
2. CONTROL DRIVE : VVVF DRIVE WILL BE INSTALLED FOR
IMPROVED CONTROL.
3. L.T. DRIVE: COMPACT GEARED MOTOR WILL BE INSTALLED
FOR REDUCED MAINTAINANCE.
4. STRUCTURE: TRAVERSER WILL BE BOX PORTAL DESIGN WITH
UNIQUE’S EXPERTISE IN MANUFACTURING OF MORE THAN
2000 BOX GIRDER CRANES & TRAVERSERS.
5. CAPSTAN: CAPSTAN WITH IMPROVED DESIGN WILL BE
INSTALLED, ON BOX GIRDER FOR IMPROVED PERFORMANCE.
6. TONGUE ASSEMBLY: 2 PIECE TONGUE WILL BE INSTALLED
FOR IMPROVED PERFORMANCE TO COPE UP WITH VARIATION
