Pandrol and Railtech Alu Singen are world-leaders in installation of electrical supply of trains and especially metro systems. They focus on third-rail electrification systems for safe power supply of public and urban transport systems. Pandrol asked GIPRO to work on a cycloaliphatic cast-resin insulator for outdoor usage in a new power-rail system.<\/p>\n

Together the part was defined, casting-mould was made and the new insulators were sampled and intensively type tested according several standards and requirements.<\/p>\n
