Railway technology has enhanced remarkably over the decades, emerged with wooden rails first introduced, transforming to cast iron plates fixed to the upper surface of wooden rails that increased durability and load-bearing than to L-shaped metal plates – better known as plateway – was introduced.
Down the time, the advancement continued as it worked its way through all-iron edge rail and variations of the cast and wrought iron. Today, superior all-iron rail is in usage, with a high manganese content that allows for high wear and fracture resistance.
To be updated with the increasing railway innovation, grinding technology has constantly adapted and changed to meet the demanding task of grinding these superior rails.
Ingredients like Aluminium Oxide, Zirconia Alumina and Ceramic Alumina have become the state-of-art raw materials to be mixed and bonded into various formulas for optimum performance during rail maintenance. As hard-wearing, durable rails are heat treated with a maximum Carbon percentage of up to 0.82, and a maximum Manganese percentage of up to 1.7, it is of utmost importance to ensure a product is used for maintenance that not just delivers optimum results, but also ensures rails remain durable throughout their lifetime.
Grinding Techniques carries a range of ANDOR grinding wheels specifically manufactured for railways that deliver fast stock removal, longevity and durability.
Grinding Techniques’ Research and Development Team is constantly testing and reviewing products to ensure it delivers the best results, regardless of specific customer needs or harsh working conditions.
Rail transport is a vital aspect of the overall transport network. The only way to keep this entire railway in good operating condition and ensuring railway longevity is regular railway grinding maintenance.
When it comes to any railway grinding, ANDOR is the preferred rail maintenance partner. With several machine manufacturers used in railway maintenance, Grinding Techniques features the technology, capabilities, backup and inputs to produce some of the best quality abrasive products available on the market to suit all of the rail equipment grinding consumable requirements.
