Patented Track
Superior Strength for Industry Best Life Span
Louden® and Trambeam® patented track beams are engineered to provide dependable load support for trolleys and hoists. Known throughout the industry as SuperTrack, TrojanTrack, Light Rail and Heavy Rail, our beams are manufactured using a lower flange tee made of high carbon and manganese metals to deliver maximum strength and durability. This inventive engineering results in weight reduction and efficiency which improves rolling ability, versatility, and longevity compared to structural beams. Since the bottom flange is of a consistent width and thickness, it allows components, switches, transfers, etc. to be included without design constraints. Patented Track can be highly customized for special applications and is used in many industries including Aerospace, Automotive, Military, and General Manufacturing. See Patented Track Cranes, Patented Track Monorail, and Patented Track Runway for more information.
Maximum Strength
Operating flange is a high carbon, high manganese T-section capable of sustaining large wheel loads under rugged heavy-duty service, while minimizing peening and wear.
reduced weight
Girder web and top flange are fabricated from steel plates which are continuously welded to form the girder track section.
Customized design
Used where loads and building bay-spans are too great to use standard steel beams.
Long Life
Patented Track systems have a life span that can last over 4 times a standard beam installation.
Reduced Installation Time
Beam strength reduces or eliminates the need for intermediate hangers.
Overhead Operation
Primarily designed to operate overhead and not interfere with ground level activities.
