OUR SOLUTIONS TO YOUR NEEDS IN RAILWAY INDUSTRY
CEFEM’s passive components are used in demanding applications such as trains and underground transport.
They are found in auxiliary and traction converters and in some electrical cabinets. The units are mounted on the roof, under the cabinet and/or inside the converters.
For many years now, CEFEM has been paying special attention to technical development, quality assurance and the environment.
We work closely with our customers to provide optimised and bespoke solutions.
Thanks to years of R&D and experience in the railway industry, our components are lighter and more efficient, while meeting the most demanding specifications. Our experts test all the components in extreme conditions: severe climatic conditions, shock and vibration resistance, etc.
