bogie testing plants

Derailing safety, riding quality, wear-and-tear behavior...

... are primarily determined by wheel-load differences on the vehicle and the bogies. For being able to meet tolerance requirements set forth in the regulations for wheel load differences for the whole vehicle, it is first necessary to check the bogies for minimal wheel load differences and eliminate impermissible deviations by adjustment of the spring pre stressing ...
