A i r S u p p l y B r a k e C o n t r o l B o g i e E q u i p m e n t r a i l s e r v i c e s O n - b o a r d Why are more and more locomotive manufacturers and operators putting their faith in systems Because we simply find the right answers to complex challenges. Locomotives have a key role to play in coping with increased demand for rail transportation worldwide. For high-speed passenger trains and heavy freight transportation, operators need economical vehicles that have been customized to their specific needs. Manufacturers therefore produce modular vehicle platforms that can be easily adapted to regional conditions but at the same time are suitable for cross-border operation. This is where braking systems come in. On a basis of tried and tested technologies we develop innovative solutions offering top levels of safety, reliability and economy. The systems we have developed are so efficient they also score top marks for environment-friendliness. Customers enjoy full support from a single source from the initial planning stage via commissioning right down to aftermarket services. Operator and customer audits world-wide regularly single out the consist quality of our products and services for praise and this is confirmed by our EN 5012 (RAMS & LCC) certification.
S y s t e m s s o l u t i o n s f o r e v e r y m a r k e t Air Supply B o gie Equipment System Control Driver s Brake Valve Air Treatment Compressors Air Dr yer Condensate Collectors Combined compressor and air treatment system s ready-to-install air supply equipment has been adapted in line with the trend towards increasingly compact, lightweight systems. Our product portfolio includes low-vibration and low-noise screw compressors with an output of between 00 and 2500 l/min as well as air-dryers and condensate collectors. And a particularly economical innovation is the oil free compressor with life-cycle costs up to 50% lower than for conventional compressors. Innovative design minimizes assembly and maintenance requirements offers a wide range of compact, lightweight bogie equipment including a new design of self-cleaning brake block unit, low-wear brake discs and innovative, high-performance brake pads. Compact, low-maintenance brake calipers with sealed joints and a standardized interface reduce installation and maintenance costs. Brake Control S er vices O n-board Systems Brake Control Control Units Valves ESRA Units B o gie Equipment Brake Discs Brake Pads Brake Caliper Units brake control systems ensure efficient and safe braking the world over As with the CCB II in AAR regions, the modular design of the MBS braking system offers both economical and flexible operation. The electronic traction control can be extended to include functions such as brake diagnostics, emergency brake override and wheel-slip monitoring. Driver brake units and air brake racks are also available in a variety of different configurations. And the piping and cabling for the brake panels has been considerably reduced. A partner for all requirements throughout the entire product lifecycle offers a wide range of railservices, ranging from individual consultancy and collaborative product development to homologation, commissioning, training, maintenance, repair, upgrading and overhaul of all components as well as a reliable supply of OEM parts. Whether you opt for individual services or the full package, everything is provided locally, either on-site or in one of our worldwide network of service centers. Driver assist systems, telematics and much more It is not just braking systems that ensure greater safety and comfort in rail vehicles. Our on-board product portfolio covers a wide range of efficient and innovative products and solutions including state-of-the-art driver assist and telematics systems as well as electronic diagnostic systems. What is s complete one-stop solution for locomotives A perfect balance of high-quality systems and services. s expertise in the field has gone into every single component and system. Top-quality components operate smoothly together to guarantee optimum functionality, high reliability and maximum safety. Complex electronic control systems such as blending and brake management reduce wear to a minimum by ensuring balanced operation of all systems. The system can be configured either to use the vehicle bus system or a separate bus exclusive to the braking system. For each project, customers are closely consulted at the design stage. And it goes without saying that offers support during the homologation process as well as all the necessary on-site services across the entire product lifecycle.

As with MBS, its European equivalent, each of the LRU modules is capable of self-diagnosis. Faults can be quickly identified and defective modules rapidly replaced. Software parameterization enables the best-selling brake control system in the USA to be easily adapted to a variety of operating conditions. The modular design of the European equivalent to CCB II in America MBS reduces the number of components required. This also simplifies the brake panel layout and considerably reduces the cost of installation, commissioning, maintenance and repair, while at the same improving vehicle availability. Emergency brake control remains completely functional even in the case of power failure. was the first company in the rail vehicle industry to develop a compressor that operates without any oil. Lubrication is replaced by a special coating, and the unit is cooled by air taken in via the crankcase. This innovative product is a winner in both environmental and economic terms. The expense of oil changes, oil separation and condensate disposal is avoided, and energy consumption, weight and installation space are significantly reduced. LEADER makes an important contribution towards reducing costs in the heavy freight segment. It supplies the driver with real-time data on in-train forces, acceleration rates, brake pressures etc. and recommends brake and traction settings, thus training him to adopt an economical driving style. Energy savings are usually in the order of 8% to 12%. All vehicle data is transmitted to a base station and can be used at a later date for simulator training. Fritz Königsbauer Team Leader Client Project Management The ability to carry out crossborder freight operations without having to change locomotives at frontiers is becoming increasingly important. This is where our flexible solutions come in. Innovations that pay their way. Reducing wear and tear and maintenance costs is a good way of saving money. More than any other manufacturer, has succeeded in finely coordinating the complex interplay of different braking systems. Brake components that are prone to wear are only used when the wear-free motor generator cannot cope on its own. Even then, patented Flexpad brake pads have proved much more durable than conventional materials. Brake pads and discs require replacement more rarely, and their design enables them to be serviced rapidly. The brake calipers themselves require low maintenance. These examples demonstrate that if all the relevant factors are included in the calculation, the bottom line is savings for the customer. Customized service packages ensure that all systems function smoothly for anything up to 30 years anywhere in the world. The secret is our combination of OEM expertise and a highly efficient service infrastructure. Is it true that Knorr- Bremse s locomotive solutions are also worldleaders in terms of economy
