Rail transport is at the heart of sustainable, environmentally friendly transport concepts. The transport of people and goods by rail will become increasingly important in the coming decades.
Rail vehicles such as trains, underground trains, trams, trams and rack railways contain a large number of different assemblies whose reliable function and service life are also ensured by the lubricant. Regular lubricant analyses have proven their efficiency for many years, especially in the monitoring of components with high mileages. On the one hand, they allow the oil change intervals to be adapted to economic requirements. At the same time, the trend evaluation in particular enables negative developments in contamination and wear values to be recognised at an early stage and dealt with proactively.
In this seminar you will learn …
- How lubricants work in principle
- Which lubricants are used in which components of rail vehicles and why
- What special features need to be considered when using organic oils
- What are the advantages of synthetic oils and where does their use make sense
- How the required quality of the lubricants can be safely described
- How professional oil monitoring works for rail vehicles and helps them to increase reliability and availability
- How the professional handling of lubricants avoids recurring practice problems
Target Group
- Specialists and managers from the maintenance and repair of rail vehicles/rail applications
- Technical consultants and sales staff from lubricant and component manufacturers
- Specialists and managers from the service sector in the areas of maintenance and repair
