Increased Original Equipment Effectiveness with reduced maintenance. 

Maintenance of railway equipment is crucial for safety and reliability of train operations. Even though there are many procedures and protocols in place, using the right tools, systems and data-intelligence can make a big difference when it comes to getting the most out of your equipment.

Do you want to maximize availability, minimize maintenance tasks and costs?

Lubrication solutions for rail applications

Thousands of trains around the world operate more reliably and efficiently because of SKF and Lincoln automatic lubrication systems. By delivering precise amounts of lubricant directly to the wheel/rail interface, automatic lubrication systems provide significant benefits in terms of wear, energy and noise reduction.

By delivering precise amounts of lubricant directly to the wheel/rail interface, automatic lubrication systems provide significant benefits in terms of wear, energy and noise reduction. 

SKF lubrication solutions provide everything from precise, clog-free lubrication to reduced wear, friction and noise. SKF EasyRail wheel flange lubrication and top-of-rail conditioning systems are mounted on-board on the first front axle of the vehicle. When activated, air and lubricant are fed from the grease tank to the spray nozzle. The lubricant is sprayed to the wheel flange in a thin layer and transferred to the gauge face of the rail by direct contact. These systems can be configured for single- and dual-line lubrication system applications, for high and low pressure.

Condition monitoring

Our condition monitoring solutions can provide real-time updates of the condition of your bearings and other components. This way, you can avoid taking bearings out of service too early, and instead removing them only when necessary. Advanced diagnostics, give you  access early warnings about of any deterioration in bearing condition. In turn, you have  enough time to plan schedule maintenance before failures can occur.
