Modernization of electric locomotives

Our modernization efforts for locomotives nearing the end of their lifecycle aim to extend their service life by 20 years. By replacing outdated systems with cutting-edge solutions, we enhance efficiency, reduce energy usage, and lower maintenance costs. 

Upgrades include installing modern microprocessor devices, video cameras, static converters for main and auxiliary drives, and replacing old wiring. All vital components are thoroughly inspected and repaired as necessary.

Operator comfort is prioritized with the addition of modern displays, air conditioning, and ergonomic seating.
