Tie Inserter

A tie exchanger, often referred to as a TKO (Tie Knock Out), is a specialized self-propelled vehicle used in railroad maintenance of way operations. This innovative machine efficiently removes old railroad ties, or sleepers, from the tracks and replaces them with new ones. By automating this crucial process, the tie exchanger enhances the speed and efficiency of maintenance work, reducing downtime for trains and improving overall track safety. Its design allows for seamless extraction and insertion, making it an invaluable tool for railway companies aiming to maintain and upgrade their infrastructure effectively.
