Gearbox housings for rail vehicles produced in high-quality

The Silbitz Group is your experienced specialist in the manufacture of durable gearboxes, for example for the drive of rail vehicles, which we tailor to your individual needs and oriented to your budget.

Long service life due to highest casting quality

When driving rail vehicles, various forces act on the material that would contribute, without appropriate precautions, to an early material wear of the transmission. Tailored gearboxes reduce this effect to provide safe operation with no unwanted friction or damage to the entire transmission, from shafts to wheels. Together with the imported lubricants, this creates a functional and almost frictionless system that promotes the drive of your rail vehicles over the years.


Gearboxes of the Silbitz Group are manufactured in contemporary processes such as classic gray cast iron, ductile iron or cast steel. The seamless casting results in particularly high-performance and durable components, which are able to withstand various external influences and require maintenance or replacement less frequently. We are happy to advise you competently, which casting method is particularly suitable for transmission housings of your application.

Professional support from conception to installation

The Silbitz Group stands for individual solutions, which are oriented to the needs of your company and your requirements. At the beginning of a project, we will prepare a professional conception of your future enclosures, which we would like to test within the framework of proven simulations. Based on these findings, we create models of our gearboxes, which we then cast and prepare directly for practical use. Of course our experienced engineers and employees also support you during mechanical processing and final assembly in order to ensure faultless functionality through professional installation. If large gearboxes become a logistical challenge, we are happy tp take care of the safe transport for you. We accompany you even after the assembly of your gearboxes and support you, for example, in quality assurance. We offer this comprehensive service from a single source, not just for the production of your gearbox housings, but in all product areas of our versatile group.
