Description
Floor Mounted Rail Systems
Knight Global Floor Mounted Rail Systems
Series: AFMRS1000 / AFMRS2000 / CMRS1000 / MRAS4203
Knight Global Floor Mounted Rail Systems are designed to give a safe, efficient answer to ergonomic challenges on the shop floor. A wide range of configuration options covers the specific technical and application requirements of each customer.
The suspension rail uses enclosed trolley track that keeps dust out of the running surface – giving smoother, quieter operation. Floor mounted rail systems are available in both single bridge and dual bridge configurations to suit a wide range of lifting requirements.
*Note: Every system configuration is custom designed for the project. Your FULLSHARP representative will help select the right option and develop alternatives during the rail system design stage.

AFMRS2000 – Expandable Floor Mounted Rail System
Features
- Suspends Knight RAD4110, RAD6110 and RAD7510 bridges.
- Engineered aluminium posts.
- Engineered aluminium cross bracing.
- Bridge type: single or dual.
- Runway rail type: RAD7510 / RAD6110 / RAD4110.

- RAD6110 / RAD4110: 7,620 mm [25 ft]
- Maximum post height: 4.5 m [15 ft] to the underside of the runway.
- Maximum capacity: up to 1,360 kg [3,000 lbs].
Benefits
- The system is fully expandable – more than four posts and a continuous runway option.
- No limit on runway length.
- Posts need no welded fabrication – shortens lead time.
- Integrated slots in the post allow accessories to be mounted:
- Control boxes, FRL units, monitors and so on.
- Bolt-together construction.
- Straightforward assembly.
- Optional inspection gate built into the runway.
CMRS1000 – Cantilevered Rail System
Features
- Maximum post height: 5,181 mm [17 ft].
- Maximum bridge length: 7,010 mm [23 ft].
- Rigid end truck – prevents the bridge skewing under sudden load, keeping lifting and lowering accurate.
- End cap with shock absorber – absorbs the impact when the bridge reaches the end of the rail.
- Extended stack hangers with 38 mm [1.5 in] of vertical adjustment in 6 mm [0.25 in] increments.
- Anti-sway guy cables with adjustable turnbuckles.
- Pad eyes built into the bridge for safety cables and horizontal bracing cables.
- Bridge pad eyes also allow the bridge to be lifted during system assembly.
- Maximum capacity varies with the system requirement – see the spec sheet for details.
Benefits
- Additional posts can be added to minimise deflection.
- Runways longer than 8,230 mm [27 ft]:
- Require a splice kit to join the runway rail.
- Optional mid rail stops.
- Dual cantilevered two post configuration.
- Offset three post configuration.
MRAS4203 – Offset Steel Floor Mounted Post
Features
- Suspends Knight RAD4110, RAD6110 and RAD7510 workstation crane systems.
- Heavy duty steel post, floor mounted.
- Available height: up to 6 m [20 ft].
- Maximum capacity: varies with the specific application.
Benefits
- Custom designed around the application and the customer’s specific load requirement.
- Suits buildings with restricted headroom, or where the roof structure cannot carry an overhead system.
- Rigid steel construction – heavy loads and long-term stability.

*Note: All systems are compatible with Knight RAD4110, RAD6110 and RAD7510 aluminium rail and the full range of Knight Global trolleys and hangers. Contact FULLSHARP for help configuring a system to suit your project.
Typical Applications
When to Use AFMRS / CMRS
- Buildings with no suitable roof structure to carry an overhead rail system.
- Where a free-standing working zone is needed, independent of the existing structure.
- Areas with several intersecting rail systems or a need for clear zoning.
- Automotive assembly stations and heavy industrial production lines.
- Maintenance and repair bays for heavy equipment.
Choosing a Configuration
- AFMRS1000: for a fixed working area with no planned expansion.
- AFMRS2000: where the runway needs to be extended now or in future.
- CMRS1000: where one side must stay clear – against a wall or next to machinery.
- MRAS4203: for exceptionally heavy loads or highly customised requirements.
