Beijing-Qingdao International Urban Rail Transit Exhibition (Metrotrans
2023) will be held in Qingdao on April 27-29, 2023. As an industry leader in adhesives, sealants and surface treatments for the rail transit industry, Henkel’s rail transit business unit has comprehensively demonstrated sustainable solutions for different application scenarios, including rich NVH solutions, fire damping material solutions Solutions and vehicle maintenance solutions, etc., promote the development of the urban rail field in a more efficient and cost-effective direction.
“Henkel has been committed to providing advanced material innovative application solutions for rail transit manufacturers and subway companies, providing full-cycle solutions and technical services from vehicle manufacturing, safe operation and maintenance.” Henkel Adhesive Technology Patricia Sheng, Head of the Global Aerospace and Rail Transit Industry of the Business Department
Scheidner said, “Through localized R&D, production and sales, we can quickly respond to the various application needs of local rail transit companies and help them meet the key challenges of electrified rail transit and the sustainable development of the industry.”
Full cycle solution Improve rail transit safety operation
For the safe operation of rail transit, Henkel has launched water-based fireproof and damping materials. This type of product has the excellent characteristics of fire prevention, vibration reduction, noise reduction and wear resistance under the vehicle. This product not only has excellent structural fire performance, but also helps to reduce vibration and noise at the bottom of the train, so as to bring passengers a safe and comfortable experience during the running of the vehicle. This material also meets the VOC emission standards of the rail industry, ensuring the environmental performance of the vehicle. In addition, Henkel has launched a water-based damping slurry. Compared with traditional water-based damping slurry, the density of this type of product is reduced by about 20%, which can improve the performance of vibration isolation and noise reduction in the vehicle, and realize safe and efficient operation of rail vehicles without increasing the weight of the vehicle.
For the maintenance of urban rail transit, Henkel has launched various cleaning agents, including general-purpose multifunctional cleaning agents, dry cleaning agents, and precision electronic contact cleaners. Universal cleaners are used to clean or remove grease and other residues and contaminants from various parts and surfaces prior to adhesive assembly or repair operations. Dry cleaning cleaner products are safe and environmentally friendly without phosphates, chromates or aromatic solvents. When performing rail vehicle maintenance, it can be used by direct spraying or wiping, not only to clean the surface of the rail vehicle body, but also to increase the gloss of the vehicle surface.
Deeply develop China’s rail transit market to promote sustainable development
In the Chinese market, Henkel has been adhering to the development strategy of “based on China and serving China”. At present, through continuous resource investment, Henkel’s main products in the field of rail transit have achieved localized production. Its production plants are located in Changchun, Yantai, Danyang and Humen, etc., and its products cover water-based damping products for sound insulation and noise reduction of rail vehicles, rail transit Adhesive products, rail vehicle damping patches, and water-based adhesives, etc. As an important part of the supply value chain of the rail transit industry, Henkel is not only committed to providing sustainable solutions for the rail transit industry and customers, but also provides customized solutions and technical support according to the requirements of different domestic customers.
The development and production of Henkel’s polyurethane adhesive products can replace welds, rivets and other mechanical fasteners, making it possible for non-metallic substrates to be assembled in rail transit, thereby achieving lightweight vehicle design and contributing to Reduce energy consumption and reduce carbon emissions in rail transit operations, helping the industry develop towards the “double carbon” goal.
