New publication: Embedded Rail System protects railway lines – even in towns and cities
Railway lines are subject to enormously high loading pressures, particularly in towns and cities: this loading is caused partly by the rail traffic itself, but also by road users who travel along or cross over a roadway with an embedded track structure at various places. Getzner has developed the Embedded Rail System as a dedicated solution for urban rail networks. It offers long-term protection to the track superstructure, rolling stock and the road – and all while protecting the surrounding environment from vibrations. The new brochure for the Embedded Rail System is available to download now from the Downloads area.
Economic because of permanent vibration protection
The Embedded Rail System, Getzner's vibration protection system nominated for the Austrian State Prize for Innovation 2014, embeds urban and tram rails in an elastic material. This creates a vibration protection system that minimizes vibrations and noise directly at the source. Especially in densely populated areas, this has a positive effect on the quality of life of the urban population and also increases passenger comfort. The economical and durable solution also benefits the operator: Embedded Rail minimizes the maintenance and repair costs of a line - saving time and money.
