Zero Oil

Knorr-Bremse was the first company in rail to introduce innovative oil-free compressor technology. This now proven product is a winner both for the environment and for the train operator, with no oil changes, oil separation and condensate to worry about. The Knorr-Bremse oil-free compressor also uses less energy, weighs less and also requires a smaller installation space than a conventional compressor. Knorr-Bremse, delivering high performance, high speed solutions around the world.

Zero Oil

365 to Zero

On a downhill mountain gradient, the Shinkanse train in Japan, has to brake from a speed of 365 kilometres an hour to zero within some 5 kilometres! Knorr-Bremse combines experience and technology to meet this demand with “intelligent braking.” What does “intelligent braking” mean? It means that in addition to the sheer performance specification of the system, lifetime operational costs are considered through the use of, for example, patented ISOBAR brake pads and also brake callipers which are designed specifically for low maintenance operation. Knorr-Bremse, delivering high performance, high speed solutions around the world.
