CONTROL DE RODAJES

Desde el menú ‘Equipo Control de rodajes’ accedemos a la pantalla de control de rodajes, que nos indica tanto la fecha estimada del próximo cambio de rodajes y de la próxima fecha de torneo.
Para facilitar la visibilidad de las fechas más cercanas hemos creado la siguiente leyenda.
Usando el color rosáceo para las fechas más próximas y el gris para las que faltan mas de 540 días para el siguiente cambio o torneo.

[I think torneo refers to changing the wheels]

Empezando por la izquierda, nos encontramos con los datos del último cambio de rodaje, mostrando la fecha, el número de cambios totales y los kilómetros de la unidad en el último cambio.
Esta información se obtiene de la última OT de tipo Torneo con campo ‘Motivo Torneo’ informado con el valor CR – Cambio Rodaje.

Explanation:
This is what I've found.

Cuando el bogie llega a la cadena de reparación se le desmonta la timonería de freno, la traviesa y los ejes, que pasan a reparación con torneo de ruedas y revisión de rodamientos. La estructura de chapa es picada y pasa al banco de calibración para cuadrarlo.

Unique turning considerations and circumstances come into play when re-turning well-worn freight and metro rail wheels. Specialty tooling geometries and grades are available to optimize any number of wear conditions. It’s a big business.

Re-turning, which essentially is a re-profiling operation, maximizes railway wheel life and serves to extend rail life as well. Wheels are less expensive and less labor intensive to replace than the rails, making railroad wheels the main consumable (next to fuel) in the rail industry.

Re-Turning rail wheels
Rail wheels are usually re-turned dry with an underfl oor rail wheel lathe. Inserts are typically in vertical, upright position and are required to have smooth chip control and high fracture resistance.

All this is complicated by wheel tread profile wear which causes departure from the cone; in fact I have seen wheel profiles where the working part of the tread had negative conicity. Last I heard there was an aim to design suspensions to allow for a worn profile and to discover a stable "worn profile" to which wheels would be actually be made new and would hopefully go for longer between re-turning on the lathe. I have been on trains with such worn wheel profiles that the wheelsets are hammering from side-to-side between the flanges on straight track.
