Articulation joints
Articulation joints for bogies and train systems are engineered to provide smooth and robust connection between two vehicle car bodies sharing a common bogie for passenger rolling stock type P-II acc. to EN 12663-1 e.g. fixed units and coaches. Designed for both new and existing vehicle platforms, they ensure efficient transfer of traction, braking and lateral loads while supporting smooth vehicle articulation.
Articulation joint solutions benefit from enhanced engineering capabilities and a broader rail technology portfolio, supporting continued innovation in performance, safety and system integration.
All articulation joints are manufactured according to customer specifications and applicable standards to meet defined force and operational requirements.
