WSM 08-275 3S
Three points, one result
For a continuous high level of quality when constructing switches, the high-performance switch tamping-alignment machine WSM 08-275 3S applies force on three points. To be precise, it has a 3-rail lift device. The switch section is therefore lifted at three points, and not as usual, at just two points.
Due to the fact that the lifting forces are distributed across the entire switch construction, the forces exerted onto the attachment materials and sleepers are reduced. This protects the material of the entire switch and track system.

High performance with absolute precision
The benefits of the high-performance switch tamping-alignment machine WSM 08-275 3S lie in the combination of the levelling system that also controls the lifting of the branched third line section during the 3-rail lift process, and the integrated automatic adjustment system. This specifically controls the track geometry to achieve the required end result.

Tamping below the switches needs to be as thorough as under the rest of the track system, however it need to be worked with more weight due to its extremely individual overall construction. The WSM 08-275 3S can help here.
The machine can use the 3-rail lift that can lift the switches to the optimum even on minimum track radii of 150 metres allowing it to master even the most difficult of track and switch situations.
