Our MaxRack-powered elevating handrail system is designed for railcars and trucks. It’s the only elevating safety cage on the market that can be raised and lowered manually if your facility loses power or plant air. The unique counterbalanced cage design, coupled with our exclusive dual input gearbox, enables smooth operation and the operator’s ability to raise and lower the cage easily in the event of a power loss.
- Lots of configuration options to suit the most demanding or challenging applications
