Track Engineering and Construction
| Enzesfeld | ||
Austroroll switch points save railway companies money in a variety of ways. Austroroll does not require maintenance and safety personnel. There is no need to dispose of oil-contaminated track material and neither is there any lubricant or lubrication labour cost. |
The engineers of the Eurotunnel and the Metro in Barcelona use Austroroll devices. |
In the closed position the switch rail rests on the slide chair. When the point is switched it is lifted from the slide chair by the Austrorolls on which it rolls smoothly into the open position. The switch rail remains on the rollers until the switch is closed again. |
Austroroll is an innovative railway-engineering product for lubrication-free railway switch points. It improves the economic efficiency and reliability of railways and it contributes to environmental protection. |
The use of Austroroll does not result in soil or ground water contamination. Also there is no problem with disposal of contaminated sleepers and ballasts. The timber sleepers are very durable and have a much longer life. |

An accurate 3D point cloud of laser data can be used to generate as-built CAD drawings of existing structures, detect structure gauge encroachments, or determine whether new rollingstock will fit through a rail network. |
GT provides track geometry measurement solutions to railways. We also provide geometry measurement services on a range of vehicle platforms. |
Our Mechanised Track Patrol (MTP) technology allows track inspectors to undertake track patrol inspections in the safety of an office environment. |
Our consulting services range from spatial information management to advice on how to introduce mobile workforce management solutions in a railway environment. |

| Holland | ||
Designed for track closure and destressing welding, Holland's 145 tonne super puller's compact design, extended working stroke and independent alignment jacks allow easy and efficient operation in all welding applications. |
Holland's container welder is a compact, efficient flash-butt welding configuration that can be used for high production on-site stationary applications, or mounted on a customer-supplied mobile carrier. |
Holland's ATMW is the most versatile flash-butt welding machine available. Long reach, full rotation and compact wheelbase allow welding from adjacent tracks and rapid track access at small road crossings. |
Designed to perform track closure welding and destressing in one compact machine, the Model H-1200 flash-butt welder has a proven service record of over ten years of successful operation. |
Another Holland flash-butt welding innovation, the MobileWelder is a road / rail welding plant that is most easily relocated from one job site to another. |

MVM Rail takes its social and environmental responsibility seriously by ensuring the training of staff in the management of projects with a strong focus on ensuring the environment is maintained. |
| Phi Group | ||
Permacrib's semi-soft natural appearance and flexibility of design makes it one of the most versatile retaining wall solutions. |
Phi Group utilized Permacrib for recent work on the Sunderland Metro line - acoustic barriers had to be designed, supplied and built to reduce the noise of the trains. |
Phi Group also utilised Permacrib timber retaining walls for the Channel Tunnel Rail Link. |
Soil nailing finished with a timber crib wall was ideal for the steep slopes at Danescourt station. |
Phi Group's ability to completely design, supply and build all of the retaining systems required was necessary for the project at Wembley. |
|
| RAIL.ONE | ||
RAIL.ONE produced and delivered approximately 260,000 sleeper systems, using RHEDA 2000 technology, for the new high-speed Dutch line HSL-Zuid. |
The use of asphalt as a track-supporting layer leads to permanent improvements in track positioning. The GETRACВ® system offers an optimal cost / performance ratio. |
The ballastless track system RHEDA CITY offers more mobility and flexibility in the range of urban traffic by rail. The system is optimally integrated into traffic flow: trams, buses, cars and pedestrians all share the same track surface. |
The track system ATD-G is a ballastless track system, whereby a transverse sleeper section is mounted directly onto a prefabricated asphalt layer. |
In just four months, RAIL.ONE delivered and erected a production plant for the manufacture of B70 concrete sleepers in Greece. |

|
| Tensar International | ||
Based on the unique properties of Tensar geogrids, Tensar Technology is widely adopted for ground stabilisation and soil reinforcement problems. |
Tensar biaxial geogrids provide an extremely cost-effective solution for the reinforcement of ballast over a soft subgrade. |
Tensar geogrids can either directly reinforce the ballast, or reinforce the granular sub-base layer beneath it. |
Installation of Tensar geogrids into the ballast over soft subgrade significantly reduces settlement, making it comparable with track on firm foundations. |
Tensar has radically re-engineered the fundamental structure of geogrids to create a revolutionary new product: the TriAx geogrid. |
