Rail Applications – Innovative Testing Technology for Safe Rail Vehicles

For over 30 years, HYDROSTAT has been a leader in providing reliable damping solutions and state-of-the-art testing technologies in railway engineering. Our specialized test rigs for rail applications meet the highest safety and quality standards, optimizing the testing processes for rail vehicle components. Through precise, weather-independent testing and dynamic testing procedures, we create realistic load scenarios that help you identify and address weaknesses early on.

Our innovative test rigs set new standards in railway engineering. They are specifically designed to meet the extreme safety and reliability requirements of rail vehicle components. With the use of advanced sensors and dynamic testing technology, we simulate load scenarios that reflect real-world operational conditions. This enables manufacturers to ensure their products meet stringent certification standards.

Rail Applications – Our Products:

Coupling Buffers
  • Regenerative: Automatic return to the original position, no replacement needed after impact
  • Preloaded: High triggering force, controlled energy distribution
  • Variable: Adjustable force-displacement characteristics (linear, progressive, nearly horizontal, or degressive)
  • Mode of Operation: Works on compression, tension, or both; optionally with or without guide tube.
Buffers for Front and End Buffers
  • Regenerative: Automatic return to the original position, no replacement needed after impact
  • Customizable: Adjustable force-displacement characteristics
  • Mode of Operation: Typically works on compression, but can also work on tension; optionally with or without guide tube.
Destructive Deformation Elements
  • High energy absorption
  • Compact design
  • No pre-tensioning device
  • No reset mechanism
  • Low maintenance
  • Behavior ranging from nearly speed-independent to speed-sensitive
  • Can also be combined with deformation tube, deformation cartridge, or deformation bellows.
