Bogie Test Press
Designed to validate and optimize the performance of railway bogies, this high-precision test system ensures accurate adjustments before installation, guarantees even weight distribution across all wheels, and simulates real-world operating conditions to enhance safety and reliability.
Key Functions:
Accurate Adjustment – Enables precise ride height adjustments for optimal bogie performance.
Weight Distribution – Ensures balanced weight allocation across all wheels, enhancing stability and efficiency.
Realistic Simulation – Replicates real-drive weight conditions to validate operational reliability.
Comprehensive Measurement Capabilities:
Axle Distance & Parallelism – Ensures correct alignment and spacing.
Wheel Diameter & Shoulder Distance – Verifies wheel dimensions for proper contact and load distribution.
Axle Angle & Suspension TOR – Optimizes bogie geometry for smooth operation.
Flexible Installation & Customization:
Above-Ground or Underground Configurations – Adaptable to different workshop layouts.
Closed-Frame or Floor-Mounted Options – Customizable to meet specific operational needs.
Modular Design – Allows modifications based on testing requirements.
Bogie Test Press is engineered to enhance efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, and ensure long-term durability. Designed with flexibility and precision in mind, it is an essential solution for railway operators and maintenance facilities seeking superior bogie performance.
