Safe and comfortable train travel is only possible on a track with the correct geometry. The first machines which could quickly and reliably create this track condition were manufactured by Plasser & Theurer. Plasser & Theurer developed the world’s most widely used, hydraulic non-synchronous constant pressure tamping principle for fixing tracks in the correct position.
In the meantime, thousands of levelling, lifting, lining, and tamping machines from Linz are operating around the world.
