Tie Pre-Plating

 

Overview
Offering Precision and Economy. Quality, durable railroad ties are only half the solution. Railroad tie plating connects the train to the rail. Plating crossties in the field has been inefficient and error prone. Koppers has automated the process of pre-plating as a solution to these problems.

By pre-plating with automated equipment, in factory-controlled conditions, Koppers helps to produce better crossties and switch ties more economically. Tie plates are mechanically gauged, spikes are precisely driven and the finished ties are ready for field installation. Koppers pre-plating services meet the needs of railroads in all regions of the country.

Benefits

  • Accuracy: Pre-plating provides precise measurement and accurate finished products, ready for error-free installations.
  • Economy: By pre-plating with automatic equipment, Koppers works faster and more efficiently, without weather-imposed delays.
  • Flexibility: Our pre-plated ties can be built to your specifications.
