Railway Engineering

The train is arriving – with profile seals from M+R

For the railways we produce seals, profiles, moulded rubber parts and frames for use in rail vehicles with rubber characteristics that make them difficult to ignite. These must fulfil extremely strict fire safety requirements. Alongside existing national standards, such as DIN 5510 – 2 and NFF 16 – 101, increasingly the new DIN EN 45545 with its stricter requirements is being used.

We have special compounds in various hardnesses to match all these standards, which are specifically authorised for use for fire safety in rail vehicle designs. We have extensive experience in particular in manufacturing spare parts for the German, Austrian and Swiss railways. There is also regular demand for sealing frames, replacement profiles and replacement frames – which are also needed by service industries throughout the region.

We manufacture exactly to customer requirements. If you have a specific challenge to deal with, our experts will be happy to advise you and offer solutions to complex problems, such as problems with cable wear on the bottom of the vehicle. Our solution: we design and manufacture tailor-made, moulded rubber parts to provide lasting protection from wear to the cables.

The following manufacturing techniques are used in railway technology

Tool production

Thanks to our highly developed tool construction facilities, at M+R – Profiles we can manufacture even difficult profile geometries economically and with precision.
Extrusion

We use three salt bath lines with diameters from 90mm to 120mm, and our production facilities are also equipped with a coextrusion line.
Injection Molding

We manufacture sealing frames with precise joins by using modern injection moulding presses.
