Product catalog summary
Overview of Tarca® Rail System
Tarca® Rail is a high-carbon alloy steel rail system designed for heavy load applications with minimal material weight. Its design ensures durability and resistance to wear, providing a longer lifespan compared to standard tracks.
Carriers (Trolleys)
Cleveland Tramrail carriers connect lifting devices to bridges, offering smooth, vibration-free operation. Features include a swiveling yoke for enhanced performance on curves, precision manufacturing for consistent rail contact, and a variety of carrier options for flexibility. Manual carriers are also available.
Motorized Drives
The motorized drives facilitate carrier and end truck movement. Options include gear-driven, belt-driven, and tractor-driven drives, each designed for specific applications such as slopes or wet conditions. Features include guide rollers with anti-friction bearings and split frame construction for easy maintenance.
Hanger Assemblies
These assemblies connect the Tarca® track to structural supports, featuring high-quality steel rods, adjustable clamps, and a ball and socket design for structural shifts. Teflon® coated washers ensure durability.
SAFPOWRBAR® Electrification
This system delivers power to drives and hoists, featuring inverted U-shaped conductor bars with flame-resistant covers and fiberglass insulators for safety. It ensures continuous contact and is UL approved, ideal for complex monorail systems.
End Stops
End stops prevent carrier or trolley travel beyond designated points, reducing wear by striking the load bar instead of wheels. Options include standard wheel end stops and bumpers for high-speed conditions.
End Trucks
End trucks connect bridges to runways, offering smooth travel with minimal maintenance. Articulating wheels accommodate track irregularities, and manual operation is possible.
Integrated Solutions
Cleveland Tramrail provides comprehensive solutions for material handling, including monorail curves, interlocks for crane transfers, and heavy-duty switches for precise alignment and minimal wear.
Automated Crane Systems by Gorbel Inc.
Gorbel offers automated crane systems as a cost-effective alternative to fully robotic solutions. These systems feature modular components for quick turnaround and are suitable for various industrial applications, providing high performance and positional accuracy.

Cleveland Tramrail Bridge Components 1 Tarca® Rail Tarca® Track features specially rolled high-carbon alloy steel rail with raised treads welded to a steel flange and web. Tarca® is designed to provide maximum spanning capability for heavy loads while minimizing the weight of required material. Its material properties resist peening and assure a longer operating life than ordinary track designs. 2 Photo shows carrier with drive and SAFPOWRBAR ® electrification. 3 Belt-driven model show here. 1 6 Carriers (Trolleys) 5 Cleveland Tramrail carriers provide the connection between the lifting device and the bridge. Our carriers are designed for years of peak performance: • The wheel base is proportioned for smooth, vibration-free carrier operation. • Swiveling yoke provides unmatched performance through curves and switches on monorail systems, contributing to longer track life. • Precision manufacturing and specially designed wheels assure consistent wheel to rail contact. • The extensive variety of our carriers provides endless flexibility to tackle any application • Manually driven carriers are also available 2 Motorized Drives Cleveland Tramrail’s drives motorize the travel of carriers and end trucks. We offer: • A gear driven drive, the best choice for most applications • A belt driven drive designed to be a lower cost alternative to the gear driven drive • A tractor driven drive for specialty systems, such as pulling loads up a slope or for use in wet conditions. Our drives were specially designed to make them long wearing and easy to service. • Guide rollers equipped with antifriction bearings align wheels on track for easy movement • Split frame construction for easy removal and reinstallation 4 Hanger Assemblies Our hanger assemblies provide a connection between the Tarca® track and structural support. • Our hanger rods are made of high-quality steel with cold-rolled steel threads • Adjusting clamp fits a range of flanges • Ball and socket design compensates for structural shift • Teflon® coated chair washers provide durable, long lasting performance

Integrated Solutions for Every Application Our Interlocks give you safe, smooth crane to crane transfers! Cleveland Tramrail interlocks provide a safe, easy way to transfer from one crane system to another. This drawing shows how Cleveland Tramrail’s underhung crane systems, A real advantage is the automatic latch which is preset by use of a pull chain. This causes an interlock to snap into action immediately upon reaching the transfer point. The latch engages solidly and both sets of safety forks swing up simultaneously. No time is lost trying to jockey the cranes into position. These rugged,...
