"Wabtec DistanceMaster solution took a major step toward improving braking performance for transit rail operators with the certification of the company’s adaptive wheel slide protection WSP technology," stated the company. The solution addresses the wheel and rail adhesion bottleneck enabling transit systems to improve efficiency and increase network capacity. The company obtained the conformity certifications and the Interoperability Constituent certification from RINA following extensive tests in laboratory and operational environments. Wabtec conducted the laboratory tests at Deutsche Bahn Systemtechnik’s accredited lab in Minden, Germany. The company also worked with Eurailtest, an accredited laboratory, to test the adaptive wheel slide protection technology in an operational environment on an SNCF Regiolis train.
