PRM has delivered large scale turnout renewal and asset replacement programs for some of Australia’s largest mining companies.
Replacing or overhauling turnouts can be a significant investment. That’s why our expert team focuses on maximising asset lifespan while enhancing the safety and reliability of your rail network.
Whether you need single gauge, mixed gauge or dual gauge turnouts, we tailor our solutions to meet your specific requirements.
Using advanced equipment, like our Narrow Head Flashbutt Welding truck, we can assemble and install entire railway turnouts without any aluminothermic welds. This process guarantees stronger, more durable joints and superior overall quality.
With PRM, you can trust that every project is completed to the highest standard.
What We Do
Position and secure new sleepers, rails and associated components precisely, ensuring proper alignment.
We use flashbutt welding to join rails and fasten components securely, ensuring long-term durability.
Conduct detailed alignment checks and make necessary adjustments to ensure operational requirements.
Integrate new turnout with existing track infrastructure, ensuring smooth transitions with adjacent sections.
Perform comprehensive inspections to ensure the work meets design specifications, tolerances and safety requirements.
Execute operational tests, including load tests, to confirm functionality and performance.
At PRM, we are dedicated to the highest standards of quality and accuracy in every aspect of turnout renewal.
Turnouts are a critical component of rail infrastructure. That’s why we approach each project with the respect it deserves, adhering to manufacturer tolerances and adopting international best practices. Our focus on accuracy means we get it right the first time, minimising the need for future interventions.
With extensive experience in turnout assembly, installation and maintenance, we offer a proven track record of quality and reliability.
From operating in sensitive or challenging areas such as heritage sites, to working with OEMs for quality pre-assembly, we handle every detail with care.
