Trains and Light Rails
Every industry faces different challenges, but almost all industries need to extend equipment start-up time, reduce maintenance, improve safety and energy consumption, and reduce total asset ownership costs. With its expertise in various industries and decades of technical experience in equipment manufacturers and end users, Metro can not only provide products, but also provide comprehensive solutions to help customers achieve their goals.
Railway and tramway vehicles need heavy bearings that can withstand harsh operating conditions. MDR self-lubricating sliding bearing has the characteristics of high load-bearing capacity, low friction, large working temperature range, corrosion resistance and pollution resistance. It is an ideal choice for reducing noise and vibration, improving energy efficiency and prolonging maintenance cycle.
MDR fully understands the challenges facing the railway industry today. Tighter budgets, lower energy costs and the need for environmentally friendly trains all conflict with passengers'expectations of punctuality and pleasant travel experiences.
Wear bearings can lead to unexpected parking repairs, excessive noise and increased vibration problems - all of which can lead to reduced passenger satisfaction and the profitability of the enterprise itself. In addition, worn bearings can reduce vehicle efficiency, thereby increasing energy consumption and carbon emissions (for diesel vehicles).
Early and excessive wear of track bearings may be caused by several factors. Extreme environment, low or high temperature, corrosion, pollution, high load and impact will greatly affect the performance of bearings, especially if the bearings can not resist the above factors.
It is a very wise choice to upgrade the current bearing to a high performance bearing specially designed for harsh environment to prevent problems related to bearing wear. In a wide range of rail transit applications, our fiber reinforced composite (FRC) bearings have been proved to be a perfect substitute for traditional metal bearings in terms of service life, corrosion resistance and friction and wear properties. Metal composite bearings, such as DP4 # and engineering plastics (EP) bearings, are excellent solutions for car interiors, door hinges, barrier-free ramps and pantograph applications due to their light weight and long service life.
