Wheel Shop Automation: Railway Wheel Press Machine Cell

** This automated wheel press system has been updated - view it here:    • Wheel Press For Railcar Wheel Set Pro...   **

This video from 2014 showcases a Simmons automated production wheel press in a heavy haul railway wheel set maintenance facility. The wheel press machine cell contains a Simmons SMP-200 200-Ton Pre-Mount and Mount Press plus a variety of automated material handling systems. It pre-mounts and then mounts a wheel set after whatever relevant operations have taken place elsewhere in the maintenance facility (measurement, wheel reprofiling, wheel boring, axle reclaiming). Once mounted, the wheel set will be transferred to the bearing mount machine cell.
