[Explanation] Recently, the first domestic multi-adaptive medium-capacity monorail system vehicle independently developed by Chongqing CRRC Changke Rail Vehicle Co., Ltd., located in Liangjiang New District, Chongqing, rolled off the production line in Chongqing.
According to reports, the vehicle has the characteristics of strong climbing ability, small turning radius, and strong environmental adaptability. The maximum operating speed is 80 kilometers per hour, and the passenger capacity of a single vehicle is 136. It can be flexibly organized to meet the needs of different passenger flows.
At the same time, the vehicle uses cutting-edge technologies such as carbon fiber composite materials and electromechanical brakes to fully realize the lightweight of the vehicle, and the axle weight of the vehicle is only 9 tons.
[Concurrent] Wang Shun, Director of Technology Department of Chongqing CRRC Changke Rail Vehicle Co., Ltd.
Now (vehicle) axle load can be controlled at 9 tons, and the overall weight of the vehicle can be reduced by 5 to 6 tons compared with the original traditional monorail, thus realizing the lightweight of the entire vehicle.
Then, light weight can bring about a reduction in the volume of the entire project, resulting in a low cost of construction.
According to our comprehensive calculation, the cost of civil engineering can be reduced by 15% to 20%.
At the same time, our vehicles adopt a flexible marshalling design, and any number of marshalling forms can be used to adapt to the transportation capacity requirements of different cities and different passenger flows.
[Explanation] At the same time, as a multi-adaptive medium-capacity monorail transportation system, the vehicle is also suitable for special environments such as high temperature, high cold, and plateau, and can meet the diverse application scenarios of tourist attractions and different types of cities.
[Concurrent] Sun Jingming, Chairman of Chongqing CRRC Changke Rail Vehicle Co., Ltd.
(Vehicles) Suitable for special operating environments such as high temperature, high cold, and plateau, to meet the diverse needs of tourism and different cities. The direction of future use of medium-capacity monorail vehicles should mainly focus on small and medium-sized cities, tourist areas, and station connections, etc. aspect.
[Explanation] In addition, the vehicle adopts the highest level of automatic driving technology, which can realize functions such as automatic wake-up, automatic start and stop, and automatic return to the warehouse.
At the same time, the intelligent design of the vehicle is compatible with new technology applications such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication, new energy supply, and multi-network system integration, realizing smart travel, smart operation and maintenance, and smart services, bringing a smarter travel experience to the public.
