Rail Maintenance Strategy

On-site Inspection

Perform site visits to inspect representative curve and tangent segments, collecting rail and wheel transverse profiles.

Additional Evaluation

Review track conditions, including geometry, friction, and switch conditions, to identify potential contributing factors to observed problems.

Optimizing Safety and Efficiency

Rails are the backbone of railway infrastructure, crucial for safe and efficient train operations. However, common maintenance practices often fall short in addressing key challenges, including:
Corrugation in critical sections due to limited grinding/milling shifts.
