With its innovative products and services, Voith is a driving force behind sustainable mobility growth in the rail segment. Spotlight on new solutions for gear units, and passenger and freight couplers.

In future, Voith’s electrical coupler design will be the basis for interface standardization of all digital automatic couplers (DAK) in rail freight transportation.

High-performance fan reduces energy and fuel consumption, making a key contribution to CO2 reduction. Special blade and fan housing geometry reduces noise emissions from entire unit.

Since May 2019, the Voith CargoFlex has been successfully deployed in day-to-day operations at SBB Cargo, a subsidiary of Swiss Federal Railways (SBB). For this purpose, the 25 locomotives and 100 wagons were equipped with 200 rail-car and 50 hybrid couplers from Voith.

In spring 2019, Stuttgarter Straßenbahnen AG (SSB) commissioned Voith to modernize and renew the electric traction inverters of 50 light rail vehicles.

The successful installation of the four couplers at Green Cargo in Eskilstuna, Sweden, was carried out September 8-10, 2020.

KIEL, GERMANY. The automatic OnEfficiency.StopStart system from Voith contributes to more efficient rail freight transport of the future. By switching off the traction engine of a locomotive during long waiting periods, operators save fuel and thus reduce costs and emissions.

Starting in 2022, a series of 18 new low-floor trams will be put into operation in Würzburg, with Voith selected to supply the electrical equipment. Voith is thus helping to increase the long-term viability of a sustainable public transport system for the customer, Würzburger Straßenbahn GmbH.

Voith and Lineas, the largest private rail freight operator in Europe, have signed a maintenance contract for the major overhaul of a first batch of 30 locomotives type HLD 77. The agreement covers a major overhaul with a predefined basic scope as well as other options for variant-specific components and for the type L4r4 turbo transmissions.
