Slab Track: RSRG Develops New Method for More Precise Placement of Plate Systems.
Plates are positioned with pinpoint accuracy at the designated spots using a gantry crane and measurement cameras.
Rhomberg Sersa Rail Group commissioned Hefel Technik to technically implement the idea of more efficient and precise plate placement. This is based on measurement nails in the concrete base, which indicate the positions of the plates. Until now, the setup has been done manually or visually with the help of these markings.
The new method utilises measurement cameras attached to the gantry crane. Special target markers on the corners of the plates and on the markings on the ground enable the automatic calculation of deviations. These deviations are displayed on a screen, making the setup not only significantly easier but also more precise.
