ARR Rail is a company focussed on development of innovative products and processes and the demonstration of its capability in this respect is best done through past achievements.
Dr Jay Jaiswal, as Director – Track Engineering & Technologies for the Rail Sector of Tata Steel Europe, was responsible for the research and development activities of the company for a large number of years. In this capacity, he was instrumental in the development of many innovations, a number of which resulted in the generation of Intellectual Property Rights for the company. Some examples of past and current innovation initiatives are:
A metallurgically engineered steel for improved resistance to wear and rolling contact fatigue. The product is now fully commercialised with rapidly growing deployment within the UK railway network.
A scientifically proven process that challenged the long held industry belief that high carbon steels can only be weld restored using high temperature preheat.
