Testing environment for maximum safety

Robust systems are no coincidence – they are the result of rigorous testing. Our in-house facilities include:

  • Laboratories and small-scale test rigs for material development
  • Full-scale test rigs for rails, sleepers, and fastening systems
  • Our own test track equipped with cutting-edge sensors for real-life load simulations

Our own test track sets new standards: Equipped with state-of-the art sensor technology, we capture the complete interaction from rail down to the subgrade. Realistic tests with tamping machines and track stabilizers create the foundation for top quality and maximum performance – solutions that truly make a difference.
