The 60R2 grooved rail, also known as the Vignole rail, is a type of railway track that features a special profile with grooves or slots on its running surface. This rail design was first introduced in the mid-19th century by French engineer Paul Vignole and has since become a popular choice for tramways, light rail systems, and other urban transport networks around the world.
These grooves are designed to accommodate specialized wheels or tires that are used on tramcars, light rail vehicles, and other urban transport systems. The grooves provide better traction and stability for the wheels, allowing them to grip the rail more securely and reduce the risk of slipping or derailing. The grooves also help to guide the wheels along the track, ensuring that they stay centered and aligned even on curves or uneven terrain.
One of the key advantages of the 60R2 grooved rail is its versatility. It can be used on a wide range of urban transport systems, including street-running trams, elevated light rail lines, and underground subway systems. The rail is also suitable for use in areas with high pedestrian traffic, as the grooves help to prevent people from tripping or slipping on the track.
Another advantage of the 60R2 grooved rail is its durability and longevity. The rail is made from high-quality carbon-manganese steel that undergoes rigorous manufacturing processes to ensure optimal mechanical properties and resistance to wear and tear. The grooves themselves are precision-machined to exacting tolerances, ensuring that they remain consistent and reliable over time.
To ensure the quality and reliability of the 60R2 grooved rail, it undergoes rigorous testing and certification processes before being approved for use. These tests include tensile strength tests, impact tests, and fatigue tests, among others, to verify the rail’s mechanical properties and performance under different operating conditions.
The installation of the 60R2 grooved rail requires specialized equipment and expertise, as well as careful planning and design. The rail must be installed on a solid foundation that can support the weight of the vehicles and other equipment, and it must be properly aligned and maintained to ensure optimal performance and safety.
Overall, the 60R2 grooved rail is a versatile and reliable rail product that is widely used in urban transport systems around the world. Its unique grooved profile provides better traction, stability, and guidance for specialized wheels or tires, making it an ideal choice for tramways, light rail systems, and other urban transport networks.
