Global climate protection targets call for alternative, environmentally friendly technologies.
Railway as a traditionally “green” means of transport plays a significant role in this scenario. To reach decarbonisation ambitions, the sector as a whole needs to come up with new, clean concepts. In railway construction, one focus lies on the development of alternative drives for vehicles and hand-operated machines. International demand is high – distributors worldwide expect 40% of all track construction machines to be battery-operated by 2025.
Robel has been developing new drive and power supply technologies for their hand-operated construction machines for years. As far back as 2013, the company presented a rail drilling machine and an impact wrench with modular rechargeable battery packs for zero-emission and ergonomic work on the track. The lithium batteries together with high performance electric motors have since become a true alternative to the combustion engine, providing high performance and durability as well as comfortable working. In 2021, Robel, as partner company of Plasser & Theurer, has adopted the renowned E3 brand for its complete battery product range.
The Battery-Powered Worksite
That the expansion of the battery- powered fleet of machines has a top priority at Robel, can be seen from the considerable growth of the company’s ‘battery family’.
