Yarra Trams, the operator of the tram network in Melbourne, Australia, operates a fleet of Combino trams which require regular maintenance and overhauls to ensure their continued safe and reliable operation. The brakes are a critical component of these trams and require specialized knowledge and expertise for their overhaul. This case study describes the successful completion of the 16-year overhaul of the Combino brake units by IMTRAM, the authorized service center for H&K and Secheron.
Yarra Trams BCU Commissioning
IMTRAM2024-07-16T15:17:55+10:00In 2020 Yarra Trams was required to upgrade some obsolete components of their Combino BCUs. Some parts were no longer available and IMTRAM provided a solution with partner Hanning & Kahl to upgrade some components in the BCUs as opposed to replacing them completely. This saved costs as well as materials as only some components were required to be replaced to make the BCUs future proof.
