Production
Patented success: Company founder Eduard Vossloh produced rail fastener spring washers for the Royal Prussian Railway. In 1927, Karl Vossloh developed the high-tension spring washer and in 1967 Prof. Hermann Meier developed the tension clamp for rail fasteners.

High-Speed Grinding
High-speed grinding (HSG) is a preventive grinding technique that allows rail contact fatigue (Head Checks, Squats) to be counteracted in a way that is easy on the steel and cost efficient while at the same time non-disruptive on regular rail services.
