The classification of wheel-rail lubrication

The friction between the wheel and the rail is very complex, both the rolling friction of the tread surface and the friction between the wheel flange and the side of the track. And the key technology in terms of wheel-rail lubrication is to accurately deliver the lubricant to the specified part. At present, wheel and rail lubrication technology is roughly divided into vehicle wheel flange lubrication system, vehicle rail lubrication system, ground rail lubrication system and vehicle wheel flange solid lubrication technology.

The importance of steel rail lubrication

In the field of modern rail transportation, wheel-rail friction and lubrication are related to locomotive traction energy consumption, driving safety, wheel and rail material consumption and maintenance costs. So they are valued by railway departments in various countries. With the further improvement of the speed of train operation, the problem of wheel and rail lubrication becomes more and more prominent. Reasonable and effective wheel-rail lubrication can reduce wheel-rail wear, which is also of great significance for energy saving and improving locomotive traction efficiency, and can improve the safety of train operation.

Railway rails generally need to be repaired and replaced regularly, most of which are due to wear and tear. After the use of solid lubrication technology, the rail change can be reduced by more than 2/3, and a lot of rail change costs can be saved every year. At the same time, effective wheel and rail lubrication can increase transport capacity and reduce energy consumption by 25%-30%.
