Abstract

This European Standard specifies requirements for the approval of a welding process by a MFBW machine at sites other than fixed plant, as well as the welding contractor together with the requirements for subsequent welding production. Where a MFBW machine is to be used in a static but temporary situation, the requirements of this part of the standard shall apply.It applies to new Vignole R200, R220, R260, R260Mn, R320Cr, R350HT, R350LHT, R370CrHT and R400HT grade rails of 46 kg/m and above, as contained in EN 13674-1, welded by a MFBW machine at sites other than a fixed plant and intended for use on railway infrastructures.This European Standard applies to the welding of rails into welded strings.
