English term

Points Machine

English to French Tech/Engineering Transport / Transportation / Shipping train installation of a railway
Can anyone translate "Points Machine" in French? Thanks☺

Client also gave me a synonym: Turnout machine

Context


Based on the above, the signalling system proposed and used for determination of the capital and operating costs is conventional line side LED cluster colour light signalling, axle counter track vacancy detection (track circuits) and mechanical turnout controllers (point machines) and relay based signal interlocking.

@ Dr EC The correct orthography is "point machine". No plural for the determiner!
