The Roslavl Wagon Repair Plant (RVRZ) has launched a new production workshop for the creation of wheelset axles for freight railway cars. This was reported by the company's press service.
The plant received a robotic industrial line. With its help, the production of its own components for wagons will be established.
The plant was able to abandon the purchase of axles from the outside, increase production and expand the range of wagon components, such as the axle itself, wheelsets and bogies, in which the axle is one of the main elements.
The expansion of the company's capacity will make it possible to produce axles with a load of 23.5 tons, as well as new analogues - with a load of up to 25 tons. The axial billet of Russian design is used for manufacturing.
The new workshop will increase the serial production of axles to 48 thousand per year. Of these, 30 thousand are used to complete 7.5 thousand wagons.
It is worth noting that until 1979, wheelset axles were manufactured according to the requirements of GOSTs with a maximum calculated static load from the wheelset on the rails - from 20.5 to 22 tons per axle. But the operating load of modern wagons per axle - 23.5 tons and 25 tons.
The used wheelset axles do not meet the permissible load standards and must be replaced.
