Rail Resistors
Thanks to its flexibility and innovation our company has also successfully established itself worldwide on the rail transport market. Beside others, rail resistors like the ET 481 for the suburban railway Berlin and rail resistors for the Transrapid, and acceptance according to the DB inspection certificate grade II APZ 3.1B have been realised. In order to comply with the manifold environmental requirements for rail resistors we work with state-of-the-art computer simulation systems. For the production of all of our rail resistors we utilize specially selected stainless steels and ceramic spacing rolls. For the purpose of aerodynamic stabilization, the used resistive ribbons are spot-welded in a meandering pattern, so that they are firmly linked together resulting in optimum stability. A special design ensures that the ribbons are securely fastened and that they can be combined into modules. |
