PINETTE PEIa leader in industrial engineering, offers state-of-the-art solutions for the rail industry. Our expertise in the design and manufacture of forming and assembly equipment meets the sector’s most stringent requirements.
Advanced Rail Technology
Our advanced technologies enable the production of lightweight, high-performance rail components, essential for the future of rail transport.
Our straightening and bending presses, specially adapted to metallic materials, are designed to offer precise control of part geometry, ensuring their seamless integration into railway applications. Whether straightening axles, body structures or complex structural components, we ensure a high-precision process, minimizing errors and increasing part durability. This advanced technology reduces future maintenance costs while ensuring optimum repeatability of straightening operations.
At the same time, PINETTE PEI excels in the development of forming technologies for composite materials, helping to lighten trains and reduce their energy footprint. By integrating our state-of-the-art forming solutions, the rail industry can achieve significant gains in weight and energy consumption, while guaranteeing the structural robustness essential for demanding applications.
With an approach focused on precision, reliability and innovation, PINETTE PEI supports its rail customers in optimizing their operations, from defining needs to implementing solutions. We are committed to offering straightening, bending and forming technologies that meet the strictest standards, while being flexible and adaptable to the specifics of each project.
PINETTE PEI supplies production lines for protective skirts manufactured by thermoplastic stamping. These automated lines enable short cycle times and high production rates.
For the production of interior trim parts, we supply highly automated turnkey and customized RTM and HP-RTM lines offering high repeatability.
For the production of window frames, PINETTE PEI is a designer, manufacturer and supplier of compression presses and production lines for SMC – GMT – BMC applications. These presses – up to 40,000 kN – are equipped with an active parallelism control system and can be combined with peripheral systems such as loading/unloading robots and cutting units.
Seats are used in large volumes in rail transport systems. To meet these high production rate requirements, as well as weight reduction constraints, PINETTE PEI offers turnkey preforming lines, offering precision and speed.
Large outer panels need to combine lightness, complex shape for aerodynamics, and rigidity. That’s why they’re ideal for C-RTM production.
PINETTE PEI supplies fully automated C-RTM production lines offering repeatability and net-shape parts.
PINETTE PEI also supplies hydraulic presses for mounting and dismounting various components on bogie axles.
