In the field of hydraulic actuation and active vehicle dynamics, HEMSCHEIDT Rail offers a comprehensive portfolio of innovative solutions for modern rail vehicle construction. Our systems – including automatic leveling, wheel wear compensation, special dampers, and adaptive suspension systems – are designed and built to maximize passenger comfort, reduce wear and enhance operational safety on a sustainable basis.
Through the use of advanced hydraulic technology in combination with intelligent control and regulation units, our systems are able to provide precise, active damping during operation. The vehicle dynamics actively adjust to driving maneuvers, load conditions and track characteristics. Sensors are continually registering all relevant parameters, ensuring:
- Improved running stability
- Noticeably enhanced passenger comfort
- Reduced wheel wear and longer service life for components
All components and systems are developed and manufactured entirely in-house. This ensures the highest quality, the longest service life, and ideal integration into different vehicle concepts.
