rail grinding serviceFor grinding service, Ram Rail uses mobile grinding technology whose specifications reply in a flexible manner to specific requirements of several railway networks and their operating companies. L&S grinding technologies enable a technically optimal and economically efficient machining of a large range of rail types with gauges between 760 and 1600 mm.

For the selection of the convenient grinding technic the concrete local conditions are considered, such as the volume of the planned grinding works, the type and degree of wear, duration of traffic break, clearance gauge, track slope, curve radius, presence of obstacles, noise and environmental regulations etc.

Likewise a machining of turnouts is also available.

Thereby different strategies of machining can be offered:

  • Rail Grinding

    New Rail Grinding

    newrailWhen grinding new rails, before starting up the rails or as soon as possible thereafter, the differences produced by the rolling process in the production of rails in the surface structure (low-carbon and carbon-rich sites) are eliminated by the removal of the top layer randentkohlten. In addition to the production of a homogeneous surface of the driving head simultaneously possible damage to the driving surface through the construction site, welds, camp-related surface rust and deviations are processed to the required rail head nominal cross section. In addition, the processing intervals are extended due to the delay defect formation.

     

    Preventive Grinding

    preventing grindingWhen preventive loops rail defects, such as head checks, checker and undulations or high profile deviations fought in the early stages of their creation. This is achieved by the removal of the hardened and brittle rail surface, for which relatively little removal depths and fewer passes are necessary. The safety and life of the rail is greatly increased, prevent noise emissions and poor ride comfort while reducing the cost per finished meters opposite the corrective grinding.

     

    Corrective Grinding

    corrective grindingCorrective grinding is used to enable worn or given Schienenkopflängs- and -querprofile in the required target values ​​to eliminate rail defects such as Laps or sample and produce special profiles.

    For this, the desired radii are produced on the rail head by adjusting the angular position of the individual axes grinding module and the associated production of grinding facets again. The grinding facets thus generated are kept as small as possible in order to get as close as possible to the required destination profile.

     

    Producing of special profiles

    In some cases, it may, for reasons of driving safety, for the prevention of rolling contact fatigue and particular stress, velocity, or wear situations be important to take special rail head profile to use. Such slip strategies are used, inter alia, in the anti-head-check processing, the production of asymmetrical rail profiles in highly congested areas and bow at track corrections.
