Market Sectors

ABL Components offers a comprehensive aluminium component fabrication service that is ideally suited for the rigorous demands of the rail industry.

A strong focus on precision engineering and adherence to stringent quality standards

ABL can produce a wide array of parts, from structural elements and interior fittings to bespoke enclosures for sensitive electronic equipment. The inherent properties of aluminium – its high strength-to-weight ratio, excellent corrosion resistance, and impressive durability – make it an optimal material for rail applications, contributing to reduced vehicle weight, improved fuel efficiency, and extended service life for critical components, all vital considerations for modern rolling stock and infrastructure.

Meeting the exact specifications required by the rail sector

The fabrication processes employed by ABL Components, including CNC machining, pressing, and welding, allow for the creation of intricate and highly accurate components essential for the complex systems within trains and rail infrastructure.

This includes:

  • Custom busbars for electrical systems
  • Lightweight panelling for carriage interiors
  • Robust housings for signalling equipment

ABL's expertise ensures that all fabricated parts meet the exact specifications required by the rail sector. Furthermore, their ability to work with various aluminium alloys means they can tailor material properties to specific performance requirements, such as enhanced impact resistance or thermal conductivity, crucial for safety and operational efficiency.
