Rail Industry
The rail industry operates in harsh and demanding environments, so not only do the products need to be highly reliable and to a high-quality standard, but safety is also a priority.
Transportation Industries
Supporting manufacturers and operators with transport solutions used during designing, building and maintenance.
The transport industry is constantly changing. Let RS help you keep up.
Often operating in harsh environments, the transportation industry covers many sectors including Rail, Automotive and Aerospace, but generally have common maintenance requirements for your facilities to keep your transport on the move.
- Managing costs and efficiencies in inventory – maintaining your infrastructure across multiple sites, with a wide variety of machinery can be expensive. RS can help improve your efficiency and inventory costs through our vast stocked range and fast delivery services.
- Energy management – knowing how much energy is being consumed by different parts of your processes will enable efficiency to be implemented. At RS we can provide both products to monitor the consumption from power meters and data loggers, to comprehensive energy-efficient solutions such as IE3 motors, variable speed drives and low-energy lighting.
- Reducing downtime – unplanned downtime due to equipment failure can be very costly in terms of both lost time and meeting service levels. To ensure reliable services it’s essential that preventative maintenance is carried out at the optimum time.
