Detailed steps for replacing rails

Rails are an important part of railway lines. As they are used for a long time, they may be worn or damaged, which requires us to replace them in time. So, how to replace rails? In fact, the principle is very simple: just remove the worn or damaged rails from the track and replace them with new ones.

Step 1: Loosen and remove the spring clip fasteners

Before starting to replace the rails, the first step is to loosen and completely remove the spring clip fasteners. The purpose of this action is to make room for the removal of the rails and the installation of new rails.

Step 2: Remove the rails that need to be replaced

After successfully removing the spring clips that fix the rails, the next step is to remove the rails that need to be replaced from the track. This step also requires professional skills and careful operation to ensure that the rails can be removed smoothly and safely, paving the way for the installation of new rails.

Step 3: Handling of rails

After accurately cutting the rails, the next step is to properly handle them. This link also requires superb technology and the ability to work together. First of all, ensure that the rails are stable to avoid accidents during handling. Then, according to the on-site conditions, a reasonable transportation route and plan were formulated to ensure that each worker had a clear understanding of his or her responsibilities. With the joint efforts of everyone, the rails were steadily transported to the designated location, ready for the subsequent laying work.

Step 4: Precision Drilling

During the transportation and replacement of rails, the drilling process is crucial. It not only concerns the precise installation of new rails, but also directly affects the safety and smoothness of the railway line. Therefore, we need to be extra cautious to ensure that the drilling is accurate.

Step 5: Fine grinding and installation of drilling splints

After the drilling process of rail replacement is completed, the next step is to grind the holes and install the splints. This link also requires us to be meticulous and ensure that every action is accurate to ensure that the splint can be firmly fixed at the drilled hole, thereby ensuring the safety and stability of the railway line.
