Bogie Design for Freight Wagons with 25 ton Axle Load

Arvin Tabriz Co. is manufacturer of different type of bogies in Iran. R&D department of this company,performing new design for bogies with 25 axle load. This investigation performs standard test demonstrated by UIC510-3 by means of finite element techniques to analyze deflections and stresses, then we will compare these results withthe experimental results from bogie frame static test platform on a prototype bogie, to evaluate them. The objectiveof supernormal load static strength test is checking the chance of permanent deformation happening to bogie frameunder maximum load condition in different situations such as vertical loads, braking and transverse forces. Objectiveof simulating operation load test is checking the happening chance of fatigue cracks on bogie frame under heavy loadcondition. At the end we found the good agreements.
