Adaptable railway cantilever system

Railway Age, April, 2004

Whether overhead electrification conversion requirements specify lightweight contact line for an urban rapid transit system or an installation with large copper cross-sections for heavy direct current operation up to 3 kV, the Adaptable Railway Cantilever System (ARCAS) is the solution, says MAC Products. Offered under a partnership and manufacturing agreement with Kummler Matter (Switzerland), MAC Products' modular ARCAS system consists of multi-functional components for light rail, tram, electric trolley bus, streetcar, and commuter rail system use. It is compatible with existing products, and based on tubular sections and a few standardized connection components. A wide range of tube types--including aluminum, stainless steel, and synthetic material--are available in various diameters. Website: www.macproduct.com.
