Power – optimally transformed onto the rail

The power of a railway vehicle depends on the quality of the drive train. Our transmission solutions have proven themselves for decades on international markets.

Technical expertise and innovative solutions

By means of modelling and simulation, the gearboxes are weight- and noise-optimized. The use of innovative and proven approaches as well as the use of durable components reduces maintenance costs to a minimum and ensures the high reliability of our rail transmissions. All drive components are designed for the entire service life of the vehicles – with the exception of wearing parts.
