Manufacture of railway locomotives and rolling stock
NACE v2.0 Code: C30.20
About manufacture of railway locomotives and rolling stock
NACE code 30.20 covers the manufacture of railway locomotives and rolling stock, a critical industry that supports the transportation and logistics sectors. This industry is responsible for producing the trains, trams, and other rail vehicles that move people and goods across the world, playing a vital role in the global economy. The manufacture of railway equipment is a highly specialized field, requiring advanced engineering and production techniques to ensure the safety and reliability of these complex machines.
Production process
The production of railway locomotives and rolling stock involves a multi-step process. It begins with the design and engineering of the vehicles, using computer-aided design (CAD) software to model the components and systems. The parts are then fabricated using a variety of metalworking techniques, such as casting, forging, and welding. Assembly of the vehicles is a meticulous process, with each component carefully installed and tested to ensure proper functionality. Advanced manufacturing technologies, such as robotics and automation, are often employed to improve efficiency and precision.
Production inputs
The manufacture of railway locomotives and rolling stock requires a range of raw materials, including steel, aluminum, and other metals, as well as specialized components like engines, brakes, and electrical systems. Highly skilled workers, such as engineers, machinists, and technicians, are also essential inputs for this industry. Additionally, the production process relies on specialized machinery and equipment, such as CNC machines, welding stations, and assembly lines.
Production outputs
The primary outputs of NACE code 30.20 are railway locomotives, passenger rail cars, freight wagons, and other rolling stock. These products are then consumed by 49.10 Transportation via railways, 49.20 Freight rail transport, and 49.31 Urban and suburban passenger land transport industries, among others. The railway equipment manufactured under this NACE code is crucial for the efficient movement of people and goods, supporting economic activity across a wide range of sectors.
