Strukton will supply power electronics for Gmeinder Lokomotiven’s new platform for shunting engines. This is the first application of Strukton’s power electronics concept for small series of ‘special vehicles’.
The Strukton system is intended for both the propulsion electronics and the on-board power circuit electronics, using identical module hardware. This simplifies the development, production and spare part provisioning.
Gmeinder Lokomotiven is developing a new platform for shunting locomotives with two, three or four axles. To reduce emissions and fuel consumption, the Gmeinder Lokomotiven Dual Diesel version is equipped with two diesel generators that can be switched on and off at lower power requirements.
In addition, the Strukton solution offers Gmeinder Lokomotiven water-cooled power electronics with well-sealed compartments.
