Innovative bogie components
Lightweight wheelset with screw-mounted wheels
- Reducing unsprung masses by 150 to 200 kg per wheelset, with significant energy and CO₂ savings
- Bolting on wheels instead of force-fitting them; time and cost savings when servicing
- In addition to the energy and CO₂ savings, a significant reduction in track load
- Optional integrated pressure sensor for continuous monitoring of the wheelset axle
SISRAP/SICAP – removable axle protection
- Durable and reusable
- Easy to assemble and disassemble, also for retrofitting
- The need to remove the normally used coating from the wheel axle for inspections is eliminated
- SISRAP with its elastomer insert is optimized for speeds of up to 250 km/h, SICAP with its composite material for speeds of up to 360 km/h
Wheel noise absorber
- 40% lighter than conventional wheel noise absorbers, while halving the sound power
- Quick and easy retrofitting thanks to uncomplicated interface
- The suitability for use on tread brake wheels and for wheel sets with axle-mounted brake discs demonstrates the versatility of this absorber
- Tested for speeds up to 320 km/h
Innovative hydro bushing
- Reduced wheel and rail wear due to low quasi-static rigidity even in tight curves, with simultaneous high dynamic rigidity
- Modular design and the principle of eco-design for optimized maintenance and significantly reduced resource consumption
- Interfaces the same as standard bushings with a diameter of 190 mm, also ideal for retrofitting
- Unique temperature equalization system for constant high-level performance of the chassis
Faster, lighter, further
MoComp bogies – the pioneering combination
Our innovative bogies are true lightweights when it comes to tare weight, but real heavyweights when it comes to maximum efficiency, safety and driving comfort. Their optimized design, which makes use of the latest simulation methods, enables consistent weight reduction in the chassis frame and wheel sets, as well as a heavenly smooth ride and maximum comfort. At the same time, replacement parts are more accessible and forward-looking diagnostic systems enable cost-saving, condition-based maintenance. Real-time monitoring systems also ensure safe driverless operation.
