Product Description
Traction motor boots are customised products that adapt to the individual movement profile of the particular vehicle. The connections are designed according to the installation situation on the wagon body or the bogie. Moreover, the connections (flanges) of the bellows have circumferential sealing surfaces. Vulcanised flanges attached to the bellow sensure a self-sealing connection. The design of the traction motor boots is customised and developed based on the assembly dimensions and movement requirements.
Furthermore, the required air flow and pressure loss are taken into account during the design phase of the product. The defined geometries are moulded on specially designed tools and tested as required. Apart from that the tractionmotor boots can be stabilised with wire rings if necessary depending on the operating requirements.
