Thin Wall Cable: The Untapped Opportunity to Reduce Rolling Stock Weight
Abstract
Explore why conventional rail cables are insulated by material that is based on a tried and tested formulation and meets safety regulations. But are also heavy and bulky, with a thick wall of insulation around the copper conductor at the cable’s core. Through research and development, thin wall products can deliver the same performance in a compact and lightweight form.
