UKTram welcomes ESR Technology as its latest Trade Member
UKTram is pleased to welcome ESR Technology as its latest Trade Member, bringing specialist engineering expertise to the organisation’s growing network of light rail suppliers.
Through its National Centre of Tribology, ESR Technology has spent 50 years helping the rail industry understand and resolve challenges relating to friction, wear and lubrication. Its work supports the safety and reliability of rail systems, with expertise ranging from rolling stock component analysis to equipment failure investigations.
Tribology applications are extensive, covering everything from the interaction between wheels and rails to the surfaces passengers walk on. By understanding how materials behave and wear over time, ESR Technology helps organisations identify problems and improve asset performance.
The company is keen to contribute its experience to discussions between members and learn from the approaches being taken across different networks.
Stephen Lewis, Principal Mechanical Engineer at ESR Technology, said:
“ESR Technology is delighted to be joining UKTram and becoming part of a community that brings the light rail sector together. We look forward to developing further relationships, sharing our expertise and learning from fellow members across the industry.”
As a Trade Member, ESR Technology will have opportunities to engage directly with operators and contribute its knowledge to UKTram’s ongoing work to support the sector.
