Machinery 



Strukton Rail manages, rents, transports and maintains one of the largest and most advanced pools of machinery in Europe.

Unique is our High Output Equipment enabling us to make huge production within short periods of time. We exchange our machines and equipment between Norway, Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands, Germany and Italy. This allows us to work in a cost and time effective way
 


Track renewal equipment

Strukton Rail deploys track renewal equipment for laying and overhauling sleepers and rails.

Locomotives

Strukton Rail has several classes of locomotives, and is able to respond to a wide variety of activities. The locomotives are generally used for moving and shunting heavy plant and for construction logistics.

Tamping machines

Tamping machines are used for raising, straightening and tamping track. There are two kinds of tamping machines. The universal tamping machines are also used for raising, straightening and tamping points. The continues tamping machines have movable tamping units that can be operated independently of each other. Tamping tines (i.e. vibrating arms) vibrate into the ballast, before moving together to squeeze the ballast under the sleepers. The measuring equipment on the tamping machine ensures that the level is accurate to a few tenths of a millimetre.

Ballast profilers

Ballast profilers perform their work before or after tamping the track. The machines distribute the ballast evenly and restore the ballast bed profile, which gives the ballast bed the required lateral resistance.

Ballast cleaning machines

Strukton Railinfra Materieel's High Output Equipment enables rapid ballast renewal.

Catenary equipment

The catenary equipment is used for erecting and renewing catenary systems and the related maintenance. Strukton Railinfra Materieel has several innovative machines in addition to the traditional catenary equipment. Among these machines are the catenary renewal train Gemma and the hydraulic platform vehicle HBA XL, which can reach as high as 15 metres.

Dynamic track stabilizers

Dynamic track stabilizers are used after the tamping machines have finished tamping and straightening the track. The dynamic track stabilizers are surface vibration devices that compact and stiffen the track-bearing ballast bed, thereby securing the track more firmly in the ballast and improving the resistance.

Rail cranes

Rail cranes are rail-bound cranes used for laying points and other lifting tasks in the track.
