Bogie testing stands
The BBM bogie testing stands, used in customer workshops for production and maintenance of coaches and locomotives bogies, are available with bogie axle and/or wheel load tests; pneumatic system for air-tightness tests; bogie dimension tests (wheel gauge, axle parallelism, axle distance and wheel diameter); height-of-bogie tests; tilting tests; and automatic calculation of shim plates.
Bogie testing stands from BBM are fully computer controlled and contribute to delivering technically accurate bogies.
Spring testing press
The BBM spring testing press can be used for testing coil and leaf springs. Tests can be performed with dedicated machines, one per each type of spring, or with a single, integrated, universal solution.
The spring testing machines are available with the following test features:
- Height spring free loaded (quote L0)
- Height spring under loaded (quote L1)
- Load test
- Measurement of chasses (direction, module and sense)
- Diagram compression force/stroke
Bogie and wheel drops
The BBM bogie and wheel drops (which can be of screw or scissor type) can be used to remove bogie or wheelsets while the train is located and supported over the table top. The bogie (or wheelset) is disconnected, lowered, transferred laterally and raised to a release track. It can then be moved to a maintenance area where inspection and repair can be performed quickly and efficiently.
Bogie running testing bench
The BBM bogie running testing bench, able to work with both trailer and motor bogie for maximum speeds of 300km/hr, is available with the following test features: vibration, temperature, noise, and current/voltage test for motor bogies.
