MRK-01ST mobile container-based rail welding system (hereinafter referred to as the “System”) is used for the flash butt welding of rails directly in-track using continuous or pulsed flashing. Rail cross section 6,500 mm 2 to 10,000 mm 2 (JIS60, JIS50 and other). Deburring is performed automatically immediately after welding.
Rail welding system operating conditions:
− Temperature range: -10°С to +50°С.
− Max. ambient humidity: 80% at +20°С and 100% at +25°С.
At railways with intensive rail traffic and, therefore, subject to faster wear, it is necessary to
carry out track maintenance more often and during extremely limited time intervals in order not to
interfere with the traffic.
A currently common challenge of the railways sector is to considerably reduce the time of track
works, and when using standard rail-bound machinery that also results in increasing costs. In this
connection, more efficient and flexible track machines and methods of works are becoming more
and more in demand.
