The UGE 300 N and UGE 400 N Underfloor Wheel Lathes are the CNC double-saddle special-purpose lathes, designed for the machining of wheelsets used in rail vehicles. Their main application is reconditioning of wheel profiles and brake discs of heavy rail vehicles (locomotives) without dismantling of wheelsets from the vehicles. This significantly shortens the shutdown time of vehicles and thus increases the efficiency of their exploitation. Reprofiling of single wheelsets or bogies dismantled from vehicles is also possible.
The machines are installed on a pit-type foundation (below the traffic rails), which ensures their operation in a roll-through system.
The machine tool is also available in the tandem configuration - 2 UGE 180 N, which is capable of machining two wheelsets of the same bogie.
