The RGS grinds at speeds up to 20 km\/h in open rail grinding applications and typically grinds a crossing or each switch unit in two to five minutes.<\/p>\n<p>The Loram RGS can grind tangent and curved rail with the same quality as a production rail grinder, yet offers true performance and precision to grind switches, crossings and other obstacles. This makes the Loram RGS an ideal choice for a dedicated specialty rail grinding solution on heavy haul railroads or a versatile dual-purpose machine on commuter rail. With more grind stones per rail than any other specialty rail grinder and twelve, fully flexible grind motors for each rail, as few as three passes are needed to grind the entire railhead. The Loram RGS vastly reduces the amount of time spent at each obstacle, producing superior grind profiles in fewer passes than any other specialty rail grinder in the world.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;45px&#8221;]<div class=\"mkd-tabs mkd-horizontal-tab variable mkd-column-4 clearfix\">\n    <ul class=\"mkd-tabs-nav\">\n                    <li>\n            <h3 class=\"mkd-tab-title\">\n            <a href=\"#tab-features\">\n                <span class=\"mkd-icon-frame\"><\/span>\n\n                <!--<span class=\"mkd-advanced-tab-text-after-icon\">-->\n                Features                <!--<\/span>-->\n\n            <\/a>\n            <\/h3>\n\n\n            <\/li>\n                    <li>\n            <h3 class=\"mkd-tab-title\">\n            <a href=\"#tab-specifications\">\n                <span class=\"mkd-icon-frame\"><\/span>\n\n                <!--<span class=\"mkd-advanced-tab-text-after-icon\">-->\n                Specifications                <!--<\/span>-->\n\n            <\/a>\n            <\/h3>\n\n\n            <\/li>\n                    <li>\n            <h3 class=\"mkd-tab-title\">\n            <a href=\"#tab-video\">\n                <span class=\"mkd-icon-frame\"><\/span>\n\n                <!--<span class=\"mkd-advanced-tab-text-after-icon\">-->\n                Video                <!--<\/span>-->\n\n            <\/a>\n            <\/h3>\n\n\n            <\/li>\n                    <li>\n            <h3 class=\"mkd-tab-title\">\n            <a href=\"#tab-data-sheet\">\n                <span class=\"mkd-icon-frame\"><\/span>\n\n                <!--<span class=\"mkd-advanced-tab-text-after-icon\">-->\n                Data Sheet                <!--<\/span>-->\n\n            <\/a>\n            <\/h3>\n\n\n            <\/li>\n            <\/ul><!-- .mkd-tabs-nav -->\n\n    <div class=\"mkd-tab-container\" id=\"tab-features-22\" >[vc_column_text]Features and capabilities of the Loram RGS Specialty Rail Grinder include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Industry-leading 23 kW motors for the most efficient metal removal, optimises grind time and reduced cost<\/li>\n<li>Ability to vary surface finish through variable power reductions to grind motors<\/li>\n<li>Independent tilt and shift grind modules for complete grind pass coverage<\/li>\n<li>Storage for up to 100 grind patterns with 72 angle settings<\/li>\n<li>Machines can be quickly joined to create a 48-stone rail grinder<\/li>\n<li>High fuel efficiency and low emissions<\/li>\n<li>Flame-resistant hydraulic fluid<\/li>\n<li>Integral spark guards and 17,500 L water tank for fire suppression.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<\/div><div class=\"mkd-tab-container\" id=\"tab-specifications-875\" >[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse;
