New Mobile Rail Welding Machine Type AMS200
ByThe AMS200 is the latest development in mobile rail welding machines, a new generation that enables the distressing and the flash butt welding process to be carried out in one operation, without an additional pulling device.
This welding machine features the necessary force to achieve the required calculated dilatation. The loss of material due to the welding process is taken into account in the calculation. The machine offers a long travel in order to allow a reliable distressing even at low temperatures.
The AMS200 has an integrated deburring unit independent from the moveable machine side which deburrs directly after welding while the rail ends remain firmly clamped. The distressing force acts in the neutral zone of the rail, which increases the weld quality and protects the machine from unwanted stress. Free space around the rail foot avoids collision with sleepers and track fasteners and minimises the need to raise the rail ends.
