WEGH Railway Sleepers Production Plant commissioned to ANK ShpK in Lezhë, Albania

We proudly announce the installation and successful testing of the most advanced concrete sleepers production plant in the Balkans for our esteemed customer, ANK Shpk.

This cutting-edge facility located in Lezhe, Albania, consists of a state-of-the-art carousel system designed by WEGH to ensure high efficiency, precision, and quality in sleeper production.

The carousel system, is engineered for continuous operation, allowing for the automated and streamlined production of concrete sleepers. The system works by moving concrete molds through a series of stations, where each process step—from steel bar placement and concrete pouring to curing and finishing—is meticulously controlled. This enables a remarkable production capacity of 75 sleepers per hour, making this plant the largest and most modern in the Balkans.

The plant’s operations are powered by a SPANOS-MOBISPA 60 concrete batching plant, ensuring a consistent and reliable supply of high-quality concrete, which is crucial for maintaining the plant’s high production standards.

The sleepers branded BETONVERS by ANK, will play a critical role in supporting the modernization of Albania’s railway infrastructure, a key component of the country’s transport strategy.

The Albanian railway projects are set to revitalize the national rail network, enhancing connectivity, and fostering economic growth throughout the region.

We are proud to contribute to this transformative project and look forward to seeing the positive impact it will have on Albania’s transportation landscape.
