Kreicom plates
Higher and heavier cranes are used more often. This means a higher working angle and higher requirements on the load-bearing surface.
The working angle may be spread over a larger area by using Kreicom Plates under the sleeper beams. This specially designed, high strength steel plate divides the load over a width of 2.05 m. Each with an area of 12 m2 and a weight of 1900 kg, the plate is a strong and safe means to increase the load-bearing surface.
Due to these plates, vertical forces are divided over a width of 2.05 m.
Concrete slabs can also be used, but this will incur more handling costs and, because of the weight, significantly more transport costs.
The standard dimensions of the Kreicom Plates are 6m x 2m and 2m x 2m (thickness 13.4cm)
Due to the construction of the Kreicom Plates, their weight is approximately equal to a 6-meter sleeper beam with rail. As a result, this is an excellent logistics solution for transportation. In the Netherlands, 24 metres of Kreicom Plates track (8 plates of 6m x 2m) can be transported together with 24 metres (4x12m) of crane track on one semi-trailer.
Advantages:
* Kreicom Plates are relatively lighter then concreteplates
* Easy and fast to mount and demount
* Special eyelets for safe and easy handling
* One plate measures: 6000 mm x 2000 mm x 134 mm
* One truck in The Netherlands can carry 48 metres of Kreicom Plate track (16 plates) OR 24 meters of Kreicom Plate track (8 plates) with 24 metres of Sleeper Beams (4 beams)
* Costs of transport and handling are less then costs of concrete plates
* Kreicom Plate is especially designed for sleeper beam track, unlike concrete plates. Concrete plates break easily, which makes them unusable and expensive. The Kreicom Plate is a sustainable product.
