Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of railway vehicle equipment processing, in particular to a railway freight car side beam cutting process equipment. Background Art

[0002] Side beams are an essential component of railway freight cars, carrying the primary load-carrying and supporting functions. Typically, side beams are made from channel steel, a process that includes scribing, cutting the ends with gas welding, beveling, and grinding with an angle grinder. Traditional production methods have numerous shortcomings, resulting in low production efficiency and inconsistent product quality.
