Rail Systems Rail Systems While Ingersoll Rand offers both articulating and rigid end trucks to match the material handling application, the primary system sold utilizes the articulating end truck. This feature maximises the ability of the operator to precisely position loads, by allowing him to move only the portion of the bridge crane near the load. This results in dramatic improvements over typical rigid end truck systems, which require the user to move the entire mass of the bridge crane for each operation. Ingersoll Rand offers a wide variety of hangers to attach to virtually any type of...
