International Railway Fair TRAKO 2023
The 15th TRAKO International Railway Fair is now behind us. As an exhibitor and participant, we can confidently say that railroads have undergone a significant transformation and are back on track, with their future looking greener than ever.
Regardless of the region in the world, there continues to be a reliance on public transportation. Rail transportation not only reduces the carbon footprint (trains emit three times less carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than cars and eight times less than airplanes) but is also becoming an increasingly appealing option for passengers.
Today, trains are being built to be:
- Fast, competing with air travel.
- Eco-friendly, with low electricity consumption.
- Comfortable, with a focus on passenger comfort.
- Multifunctional, meeting three essential requirements: transportation, workspace and relaxation.
This is a trend that will continue to grow. As a manufacturer and solution provider in traction systems, we have been actively participating in this development for years, and we still feel that we are gaining momentum alongside the industry. See you at the next edition of TRAKO!
Our transformers and chokes are integrated into the frequency converters of electrically powered vehicles and are also used in railroad substations, where they are part of the high-current traction power systems.
