Light Rail Transit Line 3 (LRT 3), Malaysia
The 37.6km-long Light Rail Transit 3 (LRT3) is a light rail line under development in Malaysia.
HEROS sells and leases second-hand locomotives, cars and coaches, diesel multiple units (DMUs) and rail cars, with or without overhaul, modification or refurbishment.
The main benefits for the customer are reduced investments and efficient delivery time.
Used rolling stock is successfully implemented at state and private railways, as well as for temporary testing of new services, bridging the time to the delivery and homologation of new units.
HEROS supplies analysis and consultancy for solutions to meet customers’ individual transport requirements for sale, as well as a reliable assessment of rolling stock that considers actual market values.
Based on conventional rolling stock instead of brand new material, HEROS extends economical and functional concepts for individual transport requirements. Often this leads to lower investments and shorter delivery times.
HEROS can combine the delivery of locomotives, cars and coaches with modification, refurbishment and overhaul. HEROS supports transport operators by training maintenance workers and drivers.
HEROS Rail Rent GmbH, an affiliate of HEROS Helvetic Rolling Stock GmbH, offers leasing concepts for passenger coaches, locomotives and diesel multiple units.
The main types of leasing are:
HEROS can adapt leasing types to individual solutions that combine the operator’s market position with the variety of HEROS rolling stock.
HEROS valuates rolling stock for third-parties with regard to technical and commercial values of their individual vehicles.
Based on expertise from numerous purchase, leasing and sale projects, market knowledge is made available to owners of rolling stock.
HEROS valuations consist of:
An exact knowledge of rolling stock’s market value is key for decisions regarding investment in existing rolling stock versus purchase of new rolling stock.
Analysis of rolling stock by an experienced third party is helpful with regard to commercial aspects, and for a realistic position in case of a sale.
If a sale of used rolling stock is prepared correctly, this leads to significantly higher yields.
HEROS Rail Rent GmbH and AREVA GmbH cooperate on the marketing of testing systems and mobile testing of axles and wheels, as well as additional consulting, laboratory, and testing services in connection with the construction and maintenance of railway rolling stock.
AREVA is well known in the market of high-technology solutions for power generation and many different types of material testing. Traceability requirements, for example, are at least as high in nuclear power services as in the transportation field.
AREVA supplies various systems and services for testing axles. A testing team is equipped with recently developed mobile semi-automatic testing devices, which can perform high-quality ultrasonic analysis on-site. The testing time is approximately 20 minutes per axle.
AREVA also provides high-quality testing systems such as:
Apart from these testing systems and services, AREVA specialises in material and welding consulting, as well as root cause analysis and trouble-shooting. Such material services not only include the handling of failure cases, but also the elaboration of adequate, tailored solutions to avoid defects in the future.
