Design consulting
Uniting design, functionality and the wide diversity of materials was a special challenge in this project.

Engineering
Our many years of experience were the basis for the successful integration of the base materials SMC, aluminium and HPL in the interior design components.

Tool management
In order to be able to produce the unusually high number of groups of items, 25 different tools had to be produced for a wide range of production technologies.

Production
The following production processes are used in the manufacture of components:

SMC hot pressing (Romay)
GFUPR hand lay-up production (Romay)
Aluminium profile pressing (Sourcing)
Aluminium casting (Sourcing)

Finishing
Practically all the visible surfaces of components, including those made of aluminium, are given a structured painted surface on our own painting lines.

Procurement
The procurement and timely supply of the above-average number of purchase items is an extremely challenging task for our Supplier Management department.

Assembly
The preparation and final assembly of the components requires a great deal of attention due to the complexity of the project.

Logistics
It takes the professional and experienced handling of logistics between the manufacturer, forwarder and wagon builder in order to ensure that the components – some of which are up to 6 m long – for the defined carriage set are brought to the installation location «just in time».

Product
Fitting out the interior of Siemens' Railjet is one of the most comprehensive and complex rail vehicle projects which Romay has ever been involved in. All the cladding components are manufactured in-house, from the heating duct in the footwell to the side panel. 25 product groups, divided into 350 individual items, are combined to create an elegant, attractive and contemporary interior.
