Air Spring System
Collaborative expertise has created a range of Metalastik® Air Spring systems which meet the stringent requirements of modern rail technology, particularly combining large horizontal displacements and low frequency ride characteristics for both normal and emergency conditions.
The potential of progressive force/displacement characteristics enable a stable vehicle performance to be achieved.
The ability to accommodate high horizontal, torsional, and conical displacements make these Air Spring Systems ideal solutions on bolsterless bogie designs. They can of course be adapted to suit bolster arrangements.
The inclusion of an air reservoir can simplify the total system integration of the vehicle.
Benefits:
- Satisfy stringent requirements for modern Rail technology
- Progressive force/displacement characteristics (if required)
- Large horizontal and angular displacement capability
- Low ride-frequency in emergency situations
- Ideal for all types of bogie designs
- Integral reservoir (if required)
