TMS05
Mining Monorail
Suspended transport through underground galleries — how TMS05 wheel-type radial piston motors grip and drive the rail flange of a mining monorail.

A mining monorail hauls personnel and material along a rail bolted to the tunnel roof — drive wheels must grip the rail flange with controlled force and hold the train on gradients, underground, every shift.
Motor roles in this machine
- TMS05 — rail wheel drives: Wheel-type radial piston motors clamp and drive the rail directly — smooth torque from 2 r/min moves the train without wheel slip on inclines. TMS05 reference →
- Underground duty: Sealed, compact drives with brake options rated for gradient holding — mining certification environments demand nothing less.
