Bogie Equipment

Thanks to continuous product and system innovation in this demanding product area, braking performance, life-cycle costs, noise emissions and installation costs have been significantly improved – to the very highest level and safety standard.

In the course of this, every piece of bogie equipment is individually designed, i.e. to take into account customer-specific operating conditions, operating area and installation conditions.

Brake Discs

• Wheel or axle-mounted versions
• Materials: steel, grey cast iron, nodular graphite cast iron, aluminum, or fiber-reinforced ceramic
• Split or non-split friction rings
• Modular construction

Brake Pads

• High-performance materials for high braking power (i.e. ISOBAR® high-temperature lining)
• High wear resistance
• Simple replacement
• Life-cycle costs optimized development of friction pairings

Brake Caliper Units

• Compact, lightweight design
• Simple bogie installation
• Low life-cycle costs

Block Brake Units

• Single or double block versions
• Robust design for the most varied climatic conditions
• Economic solution for a variety of applications

UIC Brake Cylinders and Slack Adjusters

• Various sizes for different braking requirements
• Extremely robust, low maintenance costs

Track Brakes

• Braking device independent of wheel-to-rail adhesion
• Enhances the overall braking efficiency of the vehicle
• Available as electromagnet or eddy-current brake
• Available as high or low suspension mounting

Conventional or Compact Braking Equipment for:

• All four axle freight wagons with Y25 bogie
• Freight wagons with reduced noise emissions
• Freight wagons for difficult environments
• Adaptation to customer-specific bogies possible
