Axle Mounted Disc Brake System
For Semi-High Speed Passenger Trains
Railway Equipment Division has developed an Axle-Mounted Disc Brake System for Semi-High Speed train services. This brake system conforms to UIC standards and is specifically designed to meet the Indian Railways requirement as well. The Disk Brake System consists of actuators in the form of Brake Cylinders, Caliper units, integrated slack adjusting arrangement and Wheel Slide Protection Device (WSP). The system also has a Panel Mounted Brake Equipment consisting of tri-plates, DV, manifolds, etc. The WSP is approved by UIC which protects the wheels from sliding.

Electro-Pneumatic Brake Controller
for MNU trains
One of the largest railway networks in the world with super dense crush load on their EMU and MEMU stock running on suburban networks across various cities of India run on Escorts manufactured systems for their braking, coupling, and suspension requirements. We have been manufacturing Electro-Pneumatic Brake Systems for more than three decades. These Brake Systems are in use on EMUs, MEMUs, and DMUs in Indian Railways.
Brief Description
RED’s EP Brake System has two distinct modes of operation. The primary mode of operation is electro-pneumatic application of the brakes throughout the train and the second mode of operation is the application of back-up brakes in case of electrical power failure in the system.
