Worlifts are the Sole UK agents for Hegenscheidt-MFD Re-Railing equipment and associated products.
Hegenscheidt-MFD jacks, or MFD jacks as they are widely known, are a double acting hydraulic re-railing system that is internationally to re-rail and lift all types of rail vehicles and rolling stock.
The system is lightweight, robust, reliable and very safe and can be operated by one person via a control unit situated away from any potentially hazardous areas.
The New TH-30 Lifting Jack Series
This latest design has seen up to a 20% reduction in weight compared to the previous range, providing easier handling and positioning, and reducing fatigue of the user. This series of jacks has an integrated base plate for greater stability and can be used on an incline of up to 6 degrees. Although lighter, these jacks are very robust and durable which significantly reduces maintenance costs.

Equipment for Lateral Displacement
Once the derailed vehicle has been lifted, lateral displacement equipment is used to traverse it precisely till its aligned with the track before being lowered back into the correct position.
Displacing Jack
The displacing jack is used to push or pull the load along the re-railing bridge with a roller carriage. It has a pushing force of 120kN and pulling force of 60kN

Roller Carriages
Roller Carriages are used for traversing the load along the Re-railing Bridge. Rollers are fitted with maintenance-free bearings which permit easy lateral movement. Available with or without rotating and sliding plates which compensate for radial forces occurring when loads lifted at one end are being moved.
Each carriage is fitted with two pockets which allows displacing jacks, distance bars or stopping devise to be connected.

Coming Soon
Hegenscheidt-MFD have developed the next generation of re-railing equipment which includes new designs of the lateral displacement products. The new rollers carriages can be locked in place to prevent the lifted load from any uncontrolled movement. The use of high tensile aluminium alloys has allowed a significant weight reduction.
