Our machines are built to last, favouring the maximum use of technical solutions with a high life cycle and components designed and manufactured by us. In particular, CFD manufactures its own bogies, reduction axles, gearboxes or traction motors in order to guarantee perfect control of our range of railway rolling stock, from design to commissioning, and to guarantee the supply of spare parts throughout the life of the machines Because not all railway companies have a maintenance workshop, the constraints of rolling stock maintenance are integrated throughout the design and manufacture of our railway vehicles, to be able to carry out preventive maintenance operations without under-body or pit work, or lifting equipment or specific tooling
