INDUCTION RAIL WELDING PLANT

Mirage are proud to announce the arrival of our Induction Rail Welder. We have developed the process and mobile Induction Welding Head to be suitable initially for CEN 56 & 60 rail profiles. Other profiles will follow.

• Bend strength – In excess of 1330kN minimum.
• Bend test properties similar to parent rail material in the absence of a weld
• Microstructure: As parent rail with slight increase in hardness
• Microstructure: Heat affected zone without oxidation & flaws.
• Visual appearance after forged material removal – clean & linear
• Minimal consumption for S&C installations

Our prototype unit is now complete with product acceptance scheduled for September. Future developments are planned for a series of models & configuration to meet the needs of a wide range of rail applications.

Full scale production will commence post product acceptance for:

• High Speed Rail
• High Accuracy S&C installations
• Rail Defect Removal
• Lightweight RRV combination
• Other Deployment Methods
