Japanese precision
Rail replacement and track maintenance on the Shinkansen network

Track possessions on Japanese high-speed lines are short – rails and sleepers must be exchanged within a few hours. There are no line closures for maintenance work. This is why staff, machines, and design engineers must meet particularly high requirements.

Taking care of the rail

Rail flaws and joint gaps reduce ride comfort, damage rail vehicles and have a negative effect on the track system. Normally they can only be remedied on the line. The same applies for rail welding – and here, too, mobile methods of work are necessary.
Plasser & Theurer offers a wide range of machines for the removal of rail flaws.
