Abstract

The invention relates to a machine for positioning and squaring crossties of railway tracks, formed by at least one wagon (1), provided with its own means for traveling over the rails (2) of the railway track under construction in which the crossties (3) have not yet been aligned, which laterally has respective metal profiles (4) arranged longitudinally at the level of the crossties (3) of the track, supported to the main structure of the wagon by means of angled arms (5), which on their inner face have a series of equidistant positioning wedges (7), which are in charge of coming into contact and positioning the crossties previously distributed in the layout, such that the wedges are located between them, pushing them laterally and longitudinally until leaving the crossties in the correct position: centered and perpendicular to he center line, aligned and separated from one another by a uniform distance.
