Locomotive Truck Frame Remodel

An industry leader in manufacturing innovative locomotives for commuter, freight, and international use.

An industry leader in manufacturing innovative locomotives sought help with transposing an existing CAD model into Unigraphics. The client builds its locomotives using cab, car, and truck frames integrating locomotive subsystems, head end power systems, microprocessor control applications, electrical subsystems, and engine emissions engineering.

Project Details

The client had an existing cast truck frame CAD model in a Pro-E platform, but needed it to be remodeled in Unigraphics to meet the requirements of a new program initiative. The challenge was to utilize the majority of the truck frame design intent from Pro-E while satisfying the requirements of the new program.
