Hybrid electric-arc/laser welding process

Or curve laser, as mentioned by polyglot45:

"A curve laser method is used only in sideward displacement of a track at curves while the normal straight laser method is used at straight sections in sideward displacements. The curve laser method is based on the principle that the laser transmitter is positioned at a known point on the track and directed to the track repair machine positioned at a known point."

IF Bogen as in electrical arc isn't on the wrong tracks, here's another ref.:

CNC plasma-arc, oxy-fuel gas cutting m/cs

However, in connection with Gleisbögen it must be "curve laser" here.
