ym-16

The YM-16 switch machine is the new industry standard for power switch machines in rail yard and terminal applications. Power switch machines exist to enhance safety and improve productivity in rail yards and terminals. The YM-16 goes beyond this by enhancing safety and eliminating the typical regular maintenance requirement that accompanies a power switch machine. That’s right, the YM-16 requires minimal maintenance. This easy to use power switch boasts the fastest throw time and the most efficient performance of any yard switch machine on the market, without a costly maintenance price tag. The YM-16 has built a reputation for its safety, simplicity and reliability by performing in all environments from flood-prone areas to arid desert locations. The systems are designed to perform in temperatures ranging from -40ºF to +185ºF. The YM-16 is trailable without damage, allowing a run through without the risk of derailment or machine failure. This switch machine’s power, reliability and under 1.5 second throw speed will never leave you disappointed in its performance.
