Efficient turnout systems for versatile demands
Highest speeds, highest axle loads or shortest train intervals require complex and individual turnout system solutions. We set new standards in turnout technology in the past and will do so in the future.
We design and manufacture vignol and grooved rail turnouts, crossovers, slips, diamond crossings and complete layouts, etc. in accordance with international standards or specific customer requirements - for any rail profile and gauge. In-house rail production supports tailor-made grades and profiles for high-performance track and turnout system solutions. Innovative point operating, locking and monitoring equipment, diagnostic systems for fixed infrastructure assets and rolling stock as well as manifold services complete the product portfolio.
The turnout is proved to be the most critical asset in the railway system, since its malfunctions cause a big amount of costly delay minutes or even cancellations. That’s why we chose to focus on optimizing this exact part of your track in order to support you in making its usage more efficient through our technology.
We develop and produce system turnouts and diamond crossings, designed optimized switch devices, movable point frogs, manganese frogs, built-up crossings, (elastic) ribbed base-plates/roller systems and rail expansion joints according to international standards and special customer requirements. All our systems can be provided in virtually any rail profile, geometry and track gauge.
We work hand in hand with our customers to develop concepts, which fulfill individual needs and circumstances to optimum effect. Our products are optimized in terms of life cycle costs. They promise maximum availability, reliability, ease of maintenance (robust design), as well as short installation, replacement and track possession times due to the use of preassembled parts, in addition to efficiency and durability.
Extreme weather and environmental conditions such as snow or ice, desert sands or temperature fluctuations, axle loads of up to 40 metric tons have to be mastered, as well as long distances. Resistance is required. We therefore support our customers in a fiercely competitive sector, offering them our expertise and services to give them a decisive advantage in terms of their infrastructure – and so allowing them to remain fully focused on their core business. We have provided these solutions for many years across the globe.
Speeds of almost 400 km/h and diverging speeds exceeding 200 km/h make stringent demands, but can be mastered safely and comfortably today thanks to state-of-the-art turnout technology. High speed turnouts are specialized for maximum requirements. We have a proven history of developing appropriate, innovative products and solutions for the extreme loads encountered in the world of high-speed railways.
Worldwide partners trust this concept when turnout system solutions for highest speeds, highest axle loads or highest train frequencies are required and complex requirements demand individual solutions.
