03 / LIFT & ACCESS

Create controlled access to heavy railway assets.

Rail vehicles are too heavy and railway infrastructure is too specialized for improvised access. CBP separates vehicle lifting, bogie handling and road-rail aerial work into the right specialist product routes.

THE CUSTOMER QUESTION

Do we need to raise the vehicle, move heavy running gear, or reach elevated infrastructure?

THE CBP ROUTE

Choose the access architecture from the maintenance task and physical environment.

PRODUCT ROUTES

Three access problems, three specialist routes.

Lifting an entire train, handling a bogie and working on catenary are fundamentally different jobs.

Railway Vehicle Lifting

IME-Autolift

Raise complete vehicles or carbodies in a synchronized, controlled maintenance process.

Choose it when: technicians need safe under-vehicle access, bogie exchange or heavy overhaul

Bogie & Underfloor Handling

IME-Autolift

Lower, lift, rotate and move bogies through the workshop.

Choose it when: bogie removal and transport are slowing the maintenance flow

Railway Aerial Access

Platform Basket

Travel on railway track and raise technicians to catenary, tunnel, station and structural assets.

Choose it when: the work moves along the railway and ordinary boom-lift access is difficult

TECHNOLOGY PRINCIPALS

Different problems need different specialists.

IME-Autolift owns CBP’s railway lifting and bogie-handling route; Platform Basket provides self-propelled road-rail access for elevated infrastructure.

WHAT TO DECIDE FIRST

Start with the maintenance access the equipment must create.

A lifting system is valuable because it opens the underside of the vehicle. A bogie-handling system is valuable because it removes movement bottlenecks. A road-rail platform is valuable because it brings technicians directly to the elevated asset.

NEED HELP CHOOSING?

Describe the railway problem in ordinary language.

CBP will narrow the technology route before discussing exact configuration.
