Everything is in motion.

The world is evolving, and so is our approach to transportation. With rising energy and raw material costs, rail travel is becoming increasingly appealing.

We are proud to contribute to this shift with our EC fans and drive concepts for rail technology, enhancing the comfort, safety, and overall experience for both passengers and staff.

Our energy-efficient, compact fans for ventilation systems create a pleasant atmosphere in passenger compartments and driver’s cabs. Modern drive systems ensure that train doors operate quietly and securely. Motors for windshield wipers guarantee a clear view throughout the journey. Additionally, our innovative and sustainable solutions are utilized in boarding aids, variable frequency drives, and electronic cooling systems.

In all applications, we position ourselves as your technology partner for developing and producing optimal rail technology solutions. Explore more about our product systems, their advantages, and the benefits of collaborating with ebm-papst.

We maintain our competitive edge through the seamless interaction of all components.

For our innovative application solutions, we focus on the optimal integration of motor technology, electronics, and aerodynamics, rather than just the individual parts. This approach allows us to maximize the efficient use of air and motion, as well as create intelligent connections, regardless of space constraints, large dimensions, or extreme environmental conditions.

Leveraging our extensive experience in product design, we ensure that our solutions provide tangible benefits in specific application environments. We refine our solutions based on real-world conditions to meet the demands of rail technology. Attention to detail in fan blades, fan wheels, and drives is paramount, resulting in significant enhancements in efficiency and noise reduction. Our long-standing industry expertise positions us as the ideal engineering partner and innovative system manufacturer of drive and fan solutions for rail technology.

Fans for ventilator systems

The driver’s cab and passenger compartment are equipped with air conditioning to ensure that both drivers and passengers travel in comfort. This enhances the overall experience of working and traveling on trains.

Rail door drives

Malfunctions in door systems of subways, commuter trains, or high-speed trains can be frustrating, inconvenient, and costly. To address this, our door drives guarantee that train doors operate smoothly, silently, quickly, and safely without barriers.

Variable frequency drive cooling

Converters transform the high voltage from overhead lines into a usable form for various train consumers. As heat is generated during this conversion, effective cooling is essential.

Motors for boarding aids

Boarding aids enhance passenger comfort and accessibility during train entry and exit. A three-stage spur gear mechanism extends sliding steps and secures them in place.

Electronic cooling

Rail electronics experience varying stress levels under different operating conditions. Additionally, power losses during generation, transmission, and distribution need to be dissipated swiftly and efficiently. Therefore, the cooling technology must be flexible and consistently effective.
