COMPONENTS & SYSTEMS / RUBBER-METAL SUSPENSION

Engineer the resilient component around what the suspension must carry and control.

TMS Rubber Metal designs and manufactures railway rubber-metal components that carry load, isolate vibration and guide movement inside primary and secondary suspension systems.

In practice: these are the rubber-and-metal parts that let the suspension move where it should, stay firm where it must, and isolate vibration from the vehicle.

Türkiye · Railway elastomeric components

Custom rubber, metal and bonded suspension components with in-house design, compound, molding and testing capability.

PRODUCT OPTIONS

TMS covers far more than one conical spring.

The product family spans primary and secondary suspension, bushes, links, isolators and customer-specific rubber-metal parts.

01

Conical Rubber Bonded Springs

Carry load and provide controlled resilient suspension movement.

Best for: primary or vehicle-specific suspension applications

02

Chevron / Layer Springs

Use shaped elastomer-metal stacks to control movement and stiffness.

Best for: primary suspension and bogie applications

03

Bushes & Silent Blocks

Provide resilient pivots and vibration isolation at mechanical joints.

Best for: links, suspension and auxiliary mounts

04

Spherical Bearings / Control Links

Combine guided movement with resilient interfaces.

Best for: bogie and traction-link systems

05

Bump Stops / Rubber Blocks

Limit travel and protect the suspension at extreme movement.

Best for: secondary protection and travel control

06

Custom Engineering & Testing

Develop compound, geometry, molds and validation around the actual railway part.

Best for: reverse engineering, localization and new design

HOW IT WORKS

Start with the function, not the shape.

01

Define the load path

What does the component carry or guide?

02

Define movement and stiffness

How much should it move and in which directions?

03

Engineer material and geometry

Match rubber compound, metal inserts and bonding to the duty.

04

Test before serial supply

Use static, dynamic, fatigue and quality-control evidence.

WHY THIS MATTERS

A rubber-metal part is part of the suspension design, not a generic replacement rubber.

Its geometry and compound influence load transfer, stiffness, vibration and service life.

Before: replacement is matched mainly by shape and dimensions.

After: the component is selected or developed from its actual suspension function.

CBP'S ROLE

The product is only useful when it fits the real railway job.

CBP brings the vehicle requirement and Indonesian project context to TMS, then manages qualification, testing, supply and lifecycle replacement planning.
