Railtechniek offers a wide range of P&F systems, suitable for carrying capacities up to 9.000 kg per load bar. We are specialized in systems for wet paint and powder coating lines, blasting installations, assembly lines, logistic and storage systems. A system that we offer specially for the surface-treatment industry is a dipping tank crane system. Dipping cranes transport metal products in and out of a series of pre-treatment tanks.
