Preparing railway wheelsets for transport requires attention beyond the products themselves. How the assemblies are arranged and secured inside a container also matters during handling and shipment.
The photographs show trolley wheelsets with a wheel diameter of 600 mm secured inside a shipping container. They provide a view of the wheelsets and the container-loading arrangement before transport.
Securing Wheelsets for Transport
Wheelsets are heavy components with machined surfaces and assembly interfaces that need appropriate handling. During transport planning, the loading arrangement should take account of the weight and dimensions of the cargo, the container and the intended transport route.
The wheelsets shown in the photographs have been positioned and secured inside the container. The images give customers a closer look at how these components were prepared for shipment.
Wheelsets for Rail Trolleys
Trolley wheelsets are specified according to the equipment and its operating requirements. The wheel diameter is one important dimension, while other details—such as the axle arrangement, wheel profile and mounting interfaces—also need to match the customer’s drawing and application.
For a quotation, it is helpful to provide:
- Wheelset and component drawings
- Wheel diameter and wheel profile
- Axle dimensions and interface requirements
- Required materials and applicable standards
- Quantity and delivery destination
- Any required inspection or documentation
Kingrail coordinates railway wheels, axles and wheelsets according to customer drawings and technical requirements. Inspection scope and acceptance criteria are agreed for each order.
