“La Camerounaise de Soudure Industriel"(CSI) or Industrial welding is a subsidiary (branch) of SITRAFER through aluminothermy. It has as principal mission to transform the splinted tracks of the railroad into one continuous weld.

Date of creation: January 2002
Registered capital: 1,000,0000
Labour force: 41 persons
Activities: aluminothermy - electric soldering
Perspective: A training School (centres)

The requirements for quality and efficiency as well as the desire to palliate the lack of training structures in this domain of railway techniques are at the root of the decision by SITRAFER and its partners TSO and SOTRAFER to create a training centre in Douala, Cameroon.

This centre will be open to other counties of the sub-region and the training done by highly qualified staff. It will have a convenient shutter centred on the mastery of all operations in track maintenance.

Note:

  1. The maintenance of material that constitutes the track: rails, cross bars, ballast, track devices, dish shape of the track, joint maintenance and straightening of iron bars.
  2. Geometry of the tracks: renewal, studying and rectification of curves.
  3. The maintenance of track devices (BS).
  4. Training of the framing staff on the management of track works and its staff.
