Turnout logistics: Transport of complete turnout segments
User benefits
- Modern & environmentally friendly transport by rail (lower CO2 emissions) with special tilted wagons
- Digital turnout measurement with minimal impact on ongoing operations creates the conditions for smooth turnout conversion
- Production & delivery of complete turnouts for the fastest possible installation
- Construction sequence planning (logistics simulator) to plan the necessary track possessions even more efficiently & safely
- Generally, we also offer to take the old turnouts away for refurbishment or disposal.
Focus on track availability
- The use of pre-assembled turnout modules as a plug & play solution in combination with just-in-time delivery allow a 30 % reduction of the on-site installation time.

Turnout installation
The fastest and safest way
User benefits
- Uniform high quality of the turnout construction thanks to the stationary production in the turnout plant installed using a crane in just a few hours.
- Economic benefits through significantly shortened track construction work & reduced manpower requirements at the site. Moreover, no staff with turnout experience are needed in the track – a crucial advantage in times of personnel shortage, which also results from the demographic change.
- High level of safety in the track
Focus on track availability
- Quick unloading & installation; five times faster as a traditional approach
- Short track possessions & less noise
- No on-site assembly area required
- BIM for more efficient projects
- Turnout monitoring optimize the maintenance management
