Device for positioning track processing tools on a track

A device (3) for positioning a track treatment apparatus (2) on a track (4, 46), the device (3) comprising:

• at least two carrier modules (29, 30), each having
• at least one apparatus carrier (31a, 31b) for carrying at least one track treatment apparatus (2);
• and
• a horizontal positioning device (32), to which said at least one apparatus carrier (31a, 31b) is attached, for displacing said at least one apparatus carrier (31a, 31b) along a horizontal direction (33a, 33b, 33c);
• a turning device (24) for rotatably displacing said at least two carrier modules (29, 30), said turning device (24) having at least two turning units (25, 26) for a rotatory displacement of said at least two carrier modules (29, 30) independently of one another;
• and
• a first transverse positioning device (16) for linear displacement of said at least two carrier modules (29, 30) along the horizontal direction (33a, 33b, 33c) and at an angle of at least 45° to a longitudinal direction (9) of the track (4, 46).
