LaserTrain is a cleaning system that uses high-powered lasers to remove slippery contaminants from train tracks. This innovative solution aims to enhance safety and reduce maintenance costs associated with track contamination, providing a standalone system for rail operators.
Anyone who travels by train is familiar with delays.
Track contamination such as rust, oil and most notoriously autumn leaves cause the tracks to become slippery.
Research shows that this leads to 75% lower traction and as a result to severe safety issues from the reduced braking ability.
