1996 - 2000

PROSE was performing the technical project management in the design of the running gears for the new EMUs for the Portuguese Railways.

PROSE engineers performed the running dynamic type test and parts of the noise type test (external noise).
During the complete running dynamic type test according to UIC 518 a new spanish speed record for railway vehicles was accomplished on February 23rd 2001: 359 km/h. As the prototype was only a half-train (one powerhead and six Talgo-coaches), this was also a world-record for locomotive hauled trains.

The engineers from PROSE took the responsibility for the commissioning of the motor- and the trailer-bogies. During this period the commissioning engineers were the main link between the railway company and the design departments of the supplier of the vehicles.
PROSE engineers performed also the brake tests and noise measurements as well as running comfort measurements.

Based on the concept of PROSE the bogie test bench and the test bench for coil springs was designed and built by Messrs. NENCKI. The installation and commissioning of the equipment was performed in the ISR workshop in Haifa Bay under the supervision of PROSE engineers.

Engineers of PROSE, in collaboration with specialists from ENOTRAC, performed the technical evaluation of the proposals for double deck commuter trains and for tilting DMU's. ISR decided to purchase various lots of double deck coaches from Bombardier transportation. Further on PROSE engineers provided consultancy with regard to the possible application of tilting trains on the ISR system.

Engineers of PROSE elaborated the technical specifications for the purchase of the second series of 4-axle light rail vehicles for the Tuen Mun LRT system.

PROSE engineers elaborated the vehicle concept for the new low floor streetcar for various cities in Taiwan. Thes concepts were the basis for the detail design on the vehicles by the local engineers. PROSE supervised the development and design as well as the production of the first prototypes.

PROSE performed the technical project management of the development of the completely new running gear design for the NSB EMU Class 72. The innovative single axle running gears had to be developed under the time constraint of the overall project, without the possibility for prototype tests.
The measuring department of Bombardier Transportation (today part of PROSE) performed the type tests related to the bogie. These tests included the measurement of the brake forces and of the brake disc temperatures on the line and on the test bench as well as the measurement of the outside running noise and a complete running quality type test according to UIC 518 and simultanously the measurement of the mechanical stress in the axles.

PROSE experts analysed the various hypothesis for the accident and assessed them in a systematic process.

The wheel weighings system type WWF allows the fully automatic measurement of all wheel loads of a 4 axle vehicle in accordance with the procedure as defined in EN 14363.
