Our hollow bearers

CDP Railsystems develops innovative systems for rail traffic safety and reliability. The point technology in particular is subjected to tremendous amounts of mechanical force in addition to extreme weather and temperature conditions. In order to safeguard the availability of the points and reduce the number of faults to a minimum, our hollow bearers provide an optimum solution. They can be equipped with additional covers, which provides the integrated points components with maximum protection against pollution and the effects of the weather. They can be removed easily and without issue whenever maintenance and inspection work is required.

In order to ensure that the points also operate reliably during the winter, our hollow bearers have special cable ducts for connecting an enclosure heater. At the customer’s request, we can also provide the option of equipping the hollow bearer with an flexible sleeper sole. This sole is used to protect the ballast and increases the stability of the sleeper. It also contributes to improving the dynamic and acoustic characteristics of the upper structure. All of these properties are characteristics of the hollow bearers from CDP Railsystems, making them an innovative system component for modern railway technology.

Your questions - Our answers

Are hollow bearers for extreme weather conditions also available?

Yes, CDP provides an encapsulated sleeper system for extreme weather conditions in the form of the PLS.SnowProtect, which enables the point heaters that are integrated therein to be operated significantly more efficiently. The mechanical systems of the points are thereby provided with optimum protection against icing and other weather effects.

Can the hollow bearers from CDP Railsystems also be integrated into existing systems?

Yes, the hollow bearers from CDP Railsystems are designed so that they can be integrated into existing systems without any problems. We have developed our products with the goal of guaranteeing outstanding compatibility with different point systems. egardless of the existing infrastructure, our hollow bearers provide a flexible solution that can be adapted to specific technical requirements and situations.

Why do hollow bearers improve the maintenance of points?

Our hollow bearers have a series of advantages that contribute to significantly improved maintenance. In particular, the protection of important point components from pollution and the effects of the weather significantly reduces wear and corrosion. The service life is therefore increased and maintenance frequency can therefore be reduced.
