Rail Drilling Machines for Railroad Maintenace

What is Rail Drilling Machine

Rail drilling machine is a professional tool used for railroad maintenance, there are drilling machines developed for drilling holes in steel rails and rail sleepers, and special models for drilling in rails and sleepers, and drill and extract sleeper screw bolts in railway construction and maintenance.

Rail Drilling Machine Types

Rail drilling machines from AGICO have passed CRCC certification, and have long been tested by railway workers for their characteristics of high efficiency, precision, and portability. According to the power type, it is mainly divided into the following 3 types:

  • Electric rail drilling machine: this machine is driven by electricity from battery, suitable for railways with power supply environment, it is easy operation and works with low noise.
  • Internal combustion rail drilling machine: powered by internal combustion engine, suitable for no power supply or field operation, strong power.
  • Manual rail drilling machine: purely mechanical operation, light and flexible, suitable for special environments (such as flammable and explosive areas).
