为提高铁路运输的竞争力,要求不断地改进铁道车辆以满足市场的需求。材料技术和它有关的成型技术和连接技术对此作出了重大贡献。今后重点是新材料、新工艺的进一步开发、选用和鉴定,並尽量满足车辆制造中车辆结构和走行部分、功能部分和车辆内部装饰的特殊要求。对车轮材料的研究要特别重视。 In order to enhance the competitiveness of railway transportation, it is demanded that railway vehicles be continually improved to meet the needs of the market. Material technology and its related molding technology and connection technology made a significant contribution to this. In the future, the focus will be on the further development, selection and appraisal of new materials and new technologies, and will try our best to meet the special requirements of vehicle structure and running parts, functional parts and vehicle interior decoration in vehicle manufacturing. Research on the wheel material should pay special attention.
