UNDERFLOOR WHEEL LATHE FOR LOCOMOTIVES AND FREIGHT CARS
DFR (single and tandem version) is specifically designed and manufactured to reprofile locomotives and freight cars.
Full cast iron machine structure
- Long-term stability compared to fabricated steel
- Excellent vibration damping
- Best performance against temperature variations
Cross slide assemblies
- Combination of accurate linear & prismatic guiding systems
- Incorporates tool holders and measuring devices
Measuring system
The lathe automatically calculates an optimal wheel profile based on the worn condition, providing higher operating efficiencies.
Wheel drive system
During the turning operation, we spin the worn wheel using an area outside the rolling surface. This improves the rotational stability of the worn wheel.
Axial guiding system
Highly robust, with the capacity to eliminate axial movement of the wheelset due to rotational and cutting forces. Increased life by means of hardened steel rollers and automatic lubrication.
Reduce your installation time
Optimized pit design enables fast machine installation.
Access & maintainability
Maximized accessibility and comfortable ergonomics for the operator.
Optimized layout and pit configuration
Minimized required changes to your facility.
