Lemniscates from HEMSCHEIDT Rail are special parts for motion control and vehicle steering in confined spaces.
They provide for exact linear axle guidance and compensate for pitch angles that typically occur when passing over crests and dips or when rail vehicles are unevenly loaded.
As one element in HEMSCHEIDT Rail’s intelligent articulation and motion-guidance systems, each lemniscate is individually tailored to the requirements of the specific rail vehicle – whether in high-speed trains, regional trains, light-rail vehicles or metro applications.
Thanks to our in-house development of rubber-metal components and close collaboration with our customers, we are able to deliver customized solutions that integrate seamlessly into existing bogie and vehicle concepts.
