Tests of the prototype of variable width axle in the width changer<br />

VARIABLE WIDTH AXLE FOR GOODS<br />

Tria has delivered a project for ADIF which consists of a design and homologation for a variable width axle<br />

suitable for freight wagons. In Spain, at present, only passenger trains have the capacity to travel between the<br />

standard width network and the Iberian-wide network.<br />

However, thanks to the variable width axle, which is applied to any wheel gauge and wheel diameter, all wagon types<br />

can be interchanged between tracks in Iberian width and tracks in standard width throughout the national territory.<br />

Once approved in other European countries, freight trains equipped with this movable running axle will be able<br />

to navigate through the UE regardless of different track widths, thus eliminating the load breakage points.<br />

As a result of this innovalue invention, transport times will drastically shorten which in turn will improve<br />

competitiveness and efficiency by this means of transport.<br />
