SIMTRACK Starting Stalls are the most advanced barriers available today for either training or racing purposes.
Development of all components from computer, to prototype form, to final design and manufacture, has taken many years of research and development. Almost all of the operational components are turned out from either NC or CNC computer programmable machining centres. This ensures high quality with the greatest of accuracy, and removes much of the human error factor in production. Every aspect of improving on existing starting stalls has been taken into consideration resulting in a gate that is decades ahead of any other on the market.
MATERIALS
All materials use on SIMTRACK Starting Stalls are corrosive resistant, and durable to withstand years of outdoor conditions. Front and rear gates, as well as division panel platforms and oil tank reservoirs are all fabricated from 304 Stainless Steel, to eliminate risk of paint scratches and chips, which can lead to unsightly rust stains over time.
The main structural frame and all division panels are made from high quality galvanised steel. Any other components like wheel mounts, or tie rods that are made from black steel are all chemically treated for rust resistance and then painted to protect them from weather for the life of the machine. All padding is made from similar outdoor cricket and marine grade carpet, which is designed to withstand tearing and wet conditions.
OPERATION
No other producer in the world has ever been able to offer clients the choice of two operating systems! But now Simtrack clients can choose between the most advanced cutting edge technology of hydraulic operation, or the more common and globally used mechanical system that utilises suction cups and springs. For more information on either system go to Starting Hydraulic Gates or Starting Mechanical Gates.SAFTEY
The SIMTRACK Starting Stall offers greater levels of safety as well. With the option of padding both overhead and division entrance bars, as well as the standard front and back gate pads and division panel pad, there is very little risk of a horse damaging itself on any part of the stall.
With the innovative truss design, structural bars that exist inside the stall on other gates have been removed, giving a much less claustrophobic area as well as taking out an intrusive object that many horses and riders have injured themselves on in the past.
The SIMTRACK Starting Stall is a quantum leap ahead of all other existing barriers. No other gates in the world can boast as many features, as high a quality, nor such advanced technology. Since 1925 the same basic principal of opening gates with outdated springs has been used, and until now there has not been any improvement on this basic starting design.
Finally a Starting Gate has been produced that does not educate the horse to fear it, with the numerous rattles of back and front catches together with the loud crashing sounds it makes when opened. Now a horse can be handled with more care and safety so it may perform to its best ability. Finally there are gates that reflect the technologies of today!
