All over the world, high-speed transport by rail is gaining the upper hand over individual transport. Only through continued improvement and expansion of rail systems will it be possible to relieve the load on the already dangerously clogged roads of our towns and cities. Despite the enormous variety of different types of vehicle needed for the various services, Knorr-Bremse can always accommodate the necessary modifications to product tailor-made equipment. The fundamental requirements are the same everywhere -- maximum safety and precise controllability combined with maximum availability. Electro-pneumatic and electro-hydraulic braking systems with electronic controls are the perfect compliment to total safety for tramways, light rail systems, subways and automatic guideway vehicles. Versatility through modular design Compactness Electronic control with wheelslide protection and blending High braking performance with efficient diagnosis Braking systems with these kinds of features are pointing the way forward in the search for answers to the pulsating rhythm of life in major cities. The combination of electronic control and compact brake mechanisms is ideal for all future requirements.
