Product Description

The Tooltrak ROV undercarriage is a compact track module for smaller ROV platforms. The 600 mm track has flexible edges that deflect over obstacles, while the 350 mm track is rigid across its width; floating bogies give a smooth ride over rough seabed.

The galvanised track bodies are built in high-tensile steels and mounted on transverse cross-tubes, so track width can be changed for different applications. The fully floating bogies are rubber-mounted, and the track and top rollers have stainless steel labyrinth seals and high-pressure polyurethane seals to keep out seawater, sand and dirt.

Every roller and idler has a pressure-compensating piston, so the grease pressure inside matches the seawater pressure, and grease lubrication lets contamination be flushed out during routine servicing. Track tension is set by grease-filled rams with nitrogen-filled accumulators for recoil.

Air weight limits are indicative, as the load depends on how the machine is handled during deployment and retrieval.
