Generally speaking, the service life of steel train wheels is around 100,000 kilometres, and the service life of composite wheels is around 200,000 kilometres, so how do you deal with train wheels that have reached the end of their life?

Wheel repair and remanufacturing: For slightly worn train wheels, rim surface repair can be considered to extend their service life and reduce resource consumption.

Scrap Wheel Recycling: Replacement scrap wheels are often disposed of through recycling. Used wheels are recycled using environmentally friendly processing techniques such as high temperature treatment and energy from waste. This helps to minimise the burden on the environment and the exploitation of natural resources.
