Capability Statement

Our test laboratory uses state-of-the-art, proven measuring equipment to carry out standard measurement tasks but can also offer individual, customised measurement services: – Stationary in laboratory – Static and dynamic tests (e.g. for accompanying measurements during railway operation field testing) Our tests and test quantities: – Pad/shoe tests (dry/wet) (coefficients of friction, temperatures, condition of pad/disc before and after, wear) – Wheels (coefficients of friction, temperatures, residual stress, deformation (deformation during/after braking), fracture strength) – Shaft/wheel brake discs (coefficients of friction, temperatures, wear, fracture strength, power loss due to passive air cooling) Our special-purpose measuring vehicles: – HSR measurement train (ICE-S) – NeiTech measurement train (VT 612) – Sound measuring train – Radio measurement car – Additional measuring vehicles, train drivers and testing supervisors. DB Systemtechnik is QMS certified to the ISO 9001 standard.
