Railway technology
Sanding systems are generally used on rail vehicles to ensure sufficient friction between wheel and rail even in poor conditions and to achieve safe braking and acceleration.
We design, construct and build the required system according to our customers’ specifications using tried and tested system components, thereby achieving maximum availability and product quality.
As a long-standing Austrian distribution partner of the leading manufacturer Bochumer Verein Verkehrstechnik (BVV), we offer you wheels, wheelsets and shafts from Bochum.
The focus is on development work and innovation.
µSTICK® and µSTICK® TOR are friction control products applied to the rail running surface, which represent an optimal solution for the area of wheel-rail contact , as it enables a reduction of noise and lateral forces and also counteracts rail wear.
This solid lubrication system extends the service life of the wheel and rail.
The full-contact profile measuring devices with Bluetooth connectionimpress with their unique measuring principle. A small magnetic measuring wheel and two rotating, optical and high-resolution encoders result in maximum measuring accuracy.

Why MBM ? - the manufactory for railroad technology components
Our small but highly experienced team is at the heart of our innovative solutions in the field of railroad technology. The short lines of communication between sales, design, purchasing, production and management, as well as with the majority of our long-standing suppliers and partners, enable fast and uncomplicated cooperation. With a combination of technical know-how and a deep understanding of the requirements of the railroad industry, we are constantly working to develop high-quality and reliable products.
Our product selection revolves – literally – around the railroad wheel. We supply wheels and wheelsets made from the best German forging, we offer high-quality measurement technology that allows us to understand how the wheel is doing in operation and we offer methods for optimizing friction using finely dosed sand or lubricant to help the wheel literally “run like on rails”.
We are particularly pleased that the products we manufacture today and the rail vehicles in which they are used will probably still be used by our grandchildren. Who can say that about their work today!
