LUMET plain bearing bushings from ttv in tough service

In centre buffer couplings for rail vehicles, LUMET plain bearing bushes from ttv provide precise, robust and durable movable bearings for central coupling components.
The bearing points are exposed to extreme conditions: high impact loads, severe temperature fluctuations and contamination from dirt and moisture.

The challenge:
High mechanical load capacity, exact fit for play-free guidance, minimal friction, corrosion resistance and low-maintenance continuous operation.

The ttv solution:
ttv develops and supplies solid plain bearing bushings from the LUMET series, individually tailored to the respective load profiles. Materials and surfaces are specifically selected to remain permanently functional even under changing climatic and mechanical conditions – from Europe to India and China.

The result:
• Maximum functional reliability in real continuous use
• Significantly reduced maintenance intervals
• Long service life and stable performance
• Precise, backlash-free bearing with minimal friction

Why ttv:
Because we understand how crucial material expertise and practical experience are.
Because we support leading manufacturers in the railway industry worldwide with customised solutions.
