The Locomotive Propulsion System stands as the powerhouse driving force behind locomotives, defining their ability to cover vast distances with efficiency and power. Whether fueled by traditional diesel engines or repelled by innovative electric systems, locomotive propulsion technology lies at the forefront of rail transportation evolution. It provides complete traction and propulsion control of the vehicle with continuous monitoring and extensive fault diagnostics.
Loco simulators provide immersive training, allowing Loco Pilots to practice The Locomotive Propulsion System controls the complete vehicle operation, based on the signals measured, commands received from the loco pilot. Also monitors operating conditions of on-board traction equipment and protects them against operation beyond threshold values of applicable parameters.
