Locomotive And Railway Vehicle Drive Gearbox 200 KNm High Load Capacity Extreme Reliability & Safety

Locomotive and Railway Vehicle Drive Gearbox High Load Capacity Extreme Reliability & Safety

Product Overview

This gearbox series is a core transmission component specifically designed for railway vehicles, including electric locomotives, diesel-electric locomotives, high-speed EMUs (Electric Multiple Units), metro trains, and light rail vehicles. Its function is to convert the high-speed, low-torque power generated by the traction motor into the low-speed, high-torque power required to drive the wheelsets. Renowned for its extreme reliability, exceptional efficiency, and high load capacity, this gearbox ensures the safe, smooth, and efficient operation of trains under demanding conditions, making it a critical foundational component in the rail transportation industry.

Key Advantages

Extreme Reliability & Safety: Manufactured to the most stringent design standards and material specifications, undergoing rigorous bench tests and line trials. Ensures failure-free operation under long-term impact and vibrational loads, guaranteeing absolute operational safety.

Exceptional Transmission Efficiency: Utilizes high-precision, hardened and ground gears through carburizing and quenching processes. Optimized tooth profiles minimize friction loss, achieving a transmission efficiency of over 98%, effectively saving energy.

High Load Capacity: Gears and housing are made from high-strength alloy steel with optimized structural design, providing exceptional impact and fatigue resistance to transmit massive traction and braking torque.

Excellent Lightweight Design: Employs high-strength lightweight alloys and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for topology optimization. Significantly reduces weight while ensuring strength, lowering unsprung mass and improving vehicle dynamics.

Superior Sealing & Maintainability: Combines multi-stage labyrinth seals with special lip seals to effectively prevent gear oil leakage and ingress of external contaminants. Features long maintenance intervals and simple procedures.
