Turnouts & Switches

A modern turnout is a track structure composed of a switch, a frog and closure rails permitting a train to leave given track for branching or parallel track. The turnout systems can be applied for different traffic applications like:

·Heavy Haul

· High Speed

·Mass Rapid Transit Systems in urban areas

· All required gauges

·All track systems as slab track and ballasted track

· All required rail fastenings

Switches

· The diverging path geometry of the switches is optimised according to the principles of vehicle dynamics. These cuts induce forces and thereby improve travelling comfort and service life.
