Unifikacja silników trakcyjnych

Trains are frequently custom made to accommodate the individual technical specifications of different rail service providers. Each new design requires a variety of unique, train specific components that are supplied by additional independent original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). Traditionally the traction motor is among the many custom made components required by train manufacturers. These motors are intensively engineered to ensure function and quality, which results in increased complexity throughout the value chain and adversely affects their manufacturing lead time. To overcome these problems, ABB has developed a new range of induction traction motors with built-in flexibility so that customer-specific requirements can be met using a single modular design.
