Digital solutions on tracks: Stadler networks different systems to develop digital solutions for a wide range of applications. This makes rail transport more punctual and attractive, and promotes the transition towards climate friendly mobility.
Ein digitaler Zwilling ist ein detailliertes, virtuelles Abbild einer Fahrzeugflotte und vernetzt unterschiedliche Systeme, um digitale Lösungen für unterschiedliche Anwendungsfälle zu erarbeiten. Mit Hilfe des digitalen Zwillings ist es möglich, den Betrieb der Fahrzeuge zu überwachen und Störungen frühzeitig entgegenzuwirken und Züge erst in die Instandhaltung zu schicken, wenn es notwendig wird. Dies erhöht die Verfügbarkeit und Wirtschaftlichkeit der Fahrzeuge und optimiert den Betrieb der Fahrzeuge für den Kunden. Der Schienenverkehr wird dadurch pünktlicher und attraktiver und unterstützt die klimafreundliche Mobilitätswende.
ATO stands for Automatic Train Operation and is a collection of various applications for the partial and full automation of rail operations. To maximise the efficiency of existing infrastructure, Stadler’s ATO solution can be implemented on existing train control or guidance systems and rolling stock. Using the underlying train control system, Stadler is able to significantly improve minimum headway times, energy consumption and passenger comfort. The different algorithms can be adapted to the customer’s needs. In particular, the modularity of the ATO applications ensures that specific customer solutions can be developed using existing infrastructure and rolling stock. Depending on the existing infrastructure and rolling stock, Stadler is able to present an adapted concept and offer a complete solution, including installation and retrofitting of rolling stock.
Stadler’s anti-collision system ensures increased driving safety thanks to high-quality object detection by up to three different types of sensor (radar, camera and lidar). This composition results in high reliability and detection of classified obstacles (e.g. cars, people, etc.) and analysis of the environment (e.g. weather conditions). In order to meet the requirements of different operators, Stadler develops a tailor-made concept based on the modular approach. The solution guarantees a scalable and cost-effective system for a range of vehicles, which can be adapted to different customer requirements and future challenges. Stadler can rapidly adapt the solution or create a tailor-made concept depending on the infrastructure and technology.
Stadler’s passenger information system is a modular solution that provides dynamic passenger information at bus and train platforms. The passenger receives information about the predicted actual departure times, as well as special information. The target departure times from the timetable are displayed as a fallback, e.g. in the event of disruptions or non-localised vehicles. When appropriately configured, it can provide additional support to the operator for operational optimisation, for example by offering the possibility to handle and optimise connections. By notifying the vehicle driver, it is possible to prevent a connection from being missed by a few seconds or minutes. Thanks to the multitude of interfaces to external systems, existing data can generally be used for passenger information without any additional expenditure. Importing timetable details and line information is just as easy as exporting operational and display data.
