ABSTRACT:
A welding device for welding together two rails of a track and producing a welded joint is composed of two halves. An air nozzle and a temperature sensor are mounted on one of the halves. Via a cooling opening of the air nozzle, a glowing-cooled hot welded joint can be cooled in a controlled manner, immediately after a welding bead has been sheared off, by supplying compressed air to the joint. Thus, optimal welding of head-hardened rails can be achieved.
