Surfacing of train wheel flanges after annealing of the tread surface in car-repair plants of Ukraine

V.V. Matveev

VILTRANS, Ltd., Kiev, Ukraine

Abstract
Features of wear of railway wheels and applied technologies of wheel flange reconditioning by surfacing are considered. Experience of reconditioning the wheel flanges after annealing of the tread surface is described. Advantages of such a technology of flange reconditioning are noted.
Keywords: arc surfacing, train wheels, tread surface, high-frequency annealing, hardness, microstructure, increase of efficiency
