SOLVENTLESS SILICONE RESIN INSULATES TRACTION MOTORS FOR MAJOR RAIL VEHICLE SYSTEMS

Resin is being used to impregnate the windings of traction motors manufactured for light and heavy rail vehicles in rapid transit systems. The results include improved protection for the windings from contamination, better heat transfer, and more rigid bonding of individual wires together into a solid mass that resists vibration and shock damage.
