Wheeled carrier Laaers L07A

platform

Features

• Laaers wagon type L07A is designed for transportation of automobiles and vans on standard 1,435 mm gauge lines and on 1,668 mm gauge lines (Spain).
• The underframe is designed to allow exchangeable wheelsets according to the scheme in UIC leaflet 430-1.
• The wagon is fitted with a staff safety railing on the upper deck and wire-mesh protection plates on the lower deck.
• Running decks are treated with an anti-skid coating.
• The upper loading platform is smoothly adjustable from 1,500 mm to 3,350 mm above rail head. Lifting is carried out by a spindle system consisting of:
  • an overload clutch in the drive gear to prevent damage at travel limits,
  • a special locking device preventing self-lowering of the upper deck,
  • additional locking devices protecting the whole lifting system against self-lowering during running.
• Designed in compliance with TSI, EN and Group Standards for GE traffic operation.

Capabilities

• Upper loading platform adjustable from 1,500 mm up to 3,350 mm above rail head to accommodate different loading configurations.
• Can transport vehicles with weight up to 2.8 t (depending on vehicle dimensions).
• Maximum horizontal wheel force from transported vehicle up to 1.0 t.
• Loading arrangements depend on vehicle dimensions; upper deck can be lowered to 1,500 mm to use the wagon as a flat wagon.
• Wagon equipped with 56 wheel blockers operable by foot for rapid securing of vehicles.
