Railway gearbox CFD PR23.

Railway gearbox CFD PR23.

Heavy-duty axle-mounted gearbox

The PR23 railway gearbox is dedicated to heavy to very heavy machines (locomotives, maintenance-of-way vehciles) thanks to its maximum permissible wheel span of 235 mm. It is available with two reduction stages (main mounting) or a single stage (secondary mounting).

Presentation

The CFD PR23 railway gearbox is designed for a maximum diameter of the wheel bore up to 235mm, allowing up to 25t axle load. As on the PR18 axle, the bevel gear is installed on the axle. This assembly allows the possibility of creating a single-stage secondary axle, which is necessary depending on the type of bogie used. The primary stage consists of a parallel-shaft reduction stage located on the input shaft. CFD calculates its axles for intensive use, so the gear modules used guarantee an unrivalled service life and reliability.
