Mitsubishi Electric Brake System - Key to Safe Rail Transport
Mitsubishi Electric has been a key player in the rail transport sector for over 90 years, providing brake systems for rolling stock globally. In collaboration with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, they have supplied 90,000 brake units worldwide, offering solutions for high-speed trains, commuter trains, metros, and locomotives.
The document outlines significant milestones in the development of Mitsubishi's brake systems, starting from a technical partnership with Westinghouse Air Brake in 1924 to the development of a compact type brake control unit in 2010. Key developments include the shipment of various brake control units for different Shinkansen models and the introduction of innovative technologies like the microprocessor control brake unit and wheel slide protection system.
Mitsubishi offers a wide range of brake control units and bogie brake equipment. These products are designed to fit any type of rail system and include features like wheel slide protection and train brake control. The company also provides oil-free compressors and pneumatic brake calipers.
Mitsubishi emphasizes "Quality First" in its manufacturing processes. The company has advanced testing facilities to ensure product safety and quality. They hold international certifications such as ISO9001, ISO14001, and CMMI Lv.2, and have the capability to acquire SIL4 certification if needed.
As a rolling stock system integrator, Mitsubishi Electric optimizes train operation by integrating electric and pneumatic brake systems, reducing power consumption and wear on friction materials. They also supply Train Control and Management Systems (TCMS) for comprehensive control of rolling stock equipment.
Mitsubishi's production lines are tailored for electronic and pneumatic products, ensuring efficient and high-quality production. The company provides total support from product order to after-sales service and overhaul, backed by experienced staff.
