ENG // RUS Company Personnel policy Products Suppliers news Products TikhvinChemMash produces new generation tank cars based on an innovative bogie with increased axle load. The cars have no analogues on the Russian market and are designed to transport the entire range of chemical goods (sulfuric acid, methanol, ammonia, caustic soda, etc.). It is also planned to produce articulated tank wagons, unique for the CIS countries. The operation of freight tank wagons produced by TCM allows receiving additional benefits for both the owners and operators of wagons and the owner of the railway infrastructure. For detailed information on the models of tank cars, see the website of the NPK United Wagon Company. The technical characteristics of the new generation cars provide economic and technological advantages to all participants in the transportation process: The increased axle load of 25 tons increases the actual loading by an average of 20%. This allows the shipper to significantly reduce the cost of transporting goods, and Russian Railways to reduce the cost of locomotive traction. The impact of new generation tank wagons on the track is lower compared to wagon models on a typical bogie. This allows the infrastructure owner to reduce track maintenance costs. The overhaul mileage of a new generation car has been increased to 8 years (800,000 km). This ensures a more than 3-fold reduction in the cost of operating a car over the entire life cycle compared to car models on a standard bogie. The design of tank cars produced by TikhvinKhimMash was developed by specialists from the All-Union Research Center for Transport Technologies. news 30 August 2017 UNICON 1520 and Avestra Group of Companies have become partners 28 August 2017 NPK "United Wagon Company" will present the latest developments of domestic car building at the EXPO 1520 railway biennial Full list Vacancies Electric and gas welder Crane operator Slinger Turner Milling machine Full list Employment hotline 8 800 555 03 75 (calls within the Russian Federation are free) In contact with © JSC "TikhvinKhimMash", 2017.
