Ballast profiling

Restoration of the ballast cross-section

skip: Restoration of the ballast cross-section
Ballast profiling makes it possible to produce or restore the ballast cross-section to the specified dimensions.

Restoring the ballast cross-section ensures economical management of the ballast materials. The sweeping of sleepers and the spaces between sleepers makes railway operations safer.

Bahnbau Group is a competent full service provider in this area as well. For example, we provide ballast profiling combined with tamping and measuring.
