Abstract

Dit rapport behandelt een wissel die geen bewegende delen bezit en hierdoor geen controle circuit nodig heeft. Het rapport bezit een analyse van verschillende bestaande wissels en wisselconcepten, beide in hoofdspoor en tramspoor, om een evaluatie te geven van elk concept. Op deze manier is bepaald of een zodanig "statische wissel" wenselijk is in het Nederlandse spoor. Er is vastgesteld dat dit niet het geval is, daarentegen andere wissels wel. Er wordt daarom aangeraden om meer onderzoek te doen naar deze andere aanpassingen aan wissels.

This report considers a switch that does not have moving parts and therefore has no control circuit. The report contains an analysis on current existing switches and switch designs, in heavyrail but also tramrail, to give an evaluation of the different concepts. This way it was determined if a so called "static switch" could be wished for in the Dutch Railroads. It was concluded that this kind of switch was not profitable, but other switches were. Recommended was, that certain (existing) changes in switch designs should be looked into more.
