On-site technical consultation
RIC offers a comprehensive range of maintenance, training, and consulting services to optimize the performance and reliability of rolling stock.
What types of rolling stock can you maintain or diagnose?
Do you offer your services worldwide?
Yes. Our teams travel internationally to provide on-site services, whether for one-time inspections or medium- to long-term projects.
Can your technicians train our staff while working on site?
Absolutely. Our interventions can include hands-on training sessions directly on your equipment to maximize knowledge transfer.
How long does it take to arrange an intervention?
It depends on your location, the nature of the request, and the urgency. In general, we can arrange an intervention within a few weeks.
Reproduction of obsolete parts
Some locomotives at the end of their service life become immobilized due to the failure of a component that is no longer available on the market because of obsolescence. RIC can replace these discontinued parts with reproduced components or propose a conversion to a more modern solution.
What types of parts can you reproduce?
Mechanical, hydraulic, electrical, or pneumatic parts, according to your needs.
What if I don’t have technical drawings?
We use reverse engineering based on a functional sample, technical documentation, and our expertise.
Are your parts reliable?
Yes, they meet or exceed original standards.
Can I get a quote without sending the part?
Ideally, having the part on hand is best, but it may be possible to provide an estimate with sufficient information such as photos, part numbers, technical drawings, etc.
Rolling stock refurbishment project planning and management
RIC offers services for the design of technical specifications for full or partial overhauls. When a locomotive frame is still in good condition, a major overhaul can be undertaken to refurbish or rebuild key components such as diesel engines, traction motors, electronic boards, and more. In addition, RIC provides repair services, UTEX exchange programs, and outright reconditioned solutions.
Do you offer full or partial overhauls?
Both, depending on the condition of the equipment and the client’s objectives.
Which components can be refurbished?
Engines, bogies, braking systems, wiring, etc.
Can you supply detailed specifications?
Yes, we develop customized specifications tailored to your requirements.
What is the lead time for a refurbishment?
Varies depending on the project, generally between a few weeks and a few months.
Specialized diagnostic and analysis services
RIC offers high-precision measuring instruments to diagnose the condition of your railway rolling stock.
We can supply the equipment and tools, provide training on their use, or travel to your site to perform the measurements directly on location.
Calipri
Contactless measurement of wheel and rail profiles, including defect analysis, wheelset gauge measurement, profile comparison, and much more.
POWERVE portable weighing scales
Accurate measurement of load distribution on bogies, essential for preventing uneven wear and ensuring the safety of rolling stock.
