Product Description

Bogie frames are critical components of rail vehicles, providing structural support and housing for wheels, axles, and suspension systems. A&M Manufacturing Company Ltd has the expertise and capability to manufacture bogie frames using the Investment Casting or Sand Casting technique, ensuring high precision and quality.

Investment casting allows for the production of complex and intricate shapes with tight tolerances, making it ideal for manufacturing bogie frames. A&M's investment casting process involves creating detailed moulds using wax patterns, which are then coated in ceramic and heated to remove the wax, leaving behind a hollow ceramic shell. Molten metal is then poured into the shell, solidifying to form the final bogie frame component.

Using this technique, A&M can produce bogie frames from various materials, including steel and alloy steel, chosen for their strength, durability, and performance under railway conditions. The investment casting process ensures uniformity and consistency in material properties, resulting in bogie frames that meet or exceed industry standards and specifications.

With state-of-the-art equipment and advanced manufacturing facilities, including in-house tooling design and rapid prototyping capabilities, A&M can efficiently produce bogie frames of different sizes and configurations to meet the specific requirements of railway applications. Additionally, our UK stockholding facilities ensure timely delivery and flexibility in meeting customer demands.

By leveraging the investment casting technique, A&M Manufacturing Company Ltd delivers high-quality bogie frames that contribute to the reliability, safety, and performance of rail vehicles in various railway systems.

Application: Railway Parts in South Africa, freight car fittings in the United States, train parts in Russia, Railway wagon parts

Process: The railway side frame is manufactured using a robotic automatic core making and setting production line, employing resin-hardening sodium silicate-bonded sand for moulding and whole-core core making, and refining outside the furnace technology. This process enables whole-core robotic automatic core making and setting production.

A&M Manufacturing Co., Ltd. provides a comprehensive range of railway components, including railway wagon components and Railway Castings, all manufactured through casting or Forging processes. These railway castings predominantly utilise carbon steel, stainless steel, or ADI-isothermally quenched ductile iron, produced via the investment casting method. The array of railway truck components available includes axle boxes, railway couplers, railway bogies, bogie bolsters, bogie frames, brake block brackets, and motor housings. We are equipped to supply a diverse selection of railway components tailored to meet customer specifications.

Material: Various materials such as steel and iron.

Standard: GB, TB, AAR, etc.
