Railway
The core functions of compressed air system in railway include trains breaks systems, suspensions, doors and various other equipment. AFE offers a variety of reliable solutions for trouble-free operations.
Braking system: An air compressor unit mainly includes drive motor, air compressor, air dryer, pressure controller, etc.
Air compressor: The compressed air used in the braking system of urban rail vehicles and some other subsystems is produced by the air compressor unit. The motor directly drives the air compressor through the coupling. At present, there are mainly two types of piston air compressors and screw air compressors used in urban rail vehicles.
