Actuator Technology: Tilting, Radius Steering, Bogie Steering
Liebherr-Transportation Systems Booth 1749
The Electro Hydraulic Actuator, Active Lateral Suspension for Zefi ro 300, is
an extremely compact design that includes a complete hydraulic
system and has the electronics fully integrated inside the actuator.
This new development is a combination of damper and
operating cylinder which actively drive the car into the middle
position in curves and improves the riding comfort.
The damper further provides a continuous active control of the
lateral forces. The actuator technology could be used for many other
applications such as tilting, active radius steering and bogie steering device.
The confi guration of the actuator can be adapted to given envelope.

Protect Your Workers
Metrom Rail Booth 7233
The AURA Roadway Worker Protection
System provides advanced warning between
on-track equipment and workers.
Using ultrawide band technology as the
basis for worker protection for the fi rst
time in the railway industry, the system
off ers accurate ranging between equipment
and personnel in any environment,
including tunnels and cities. Equipment
located on trains and workers, as well as
along the wayside, work together to provide
a minimum of 15 seconds of warning
for workers and train operators at any
speed. Modules contain data recorders
and allow for contactless charging and
data transfer. The system off ers portability,
simple confi guration and an easy-touse
interface.
Accessisble Wheels

Mohawk Lifts is showcasing its frame
adaptors for mobile column lifts. Frame
adaptors with a 24,000 pound capacity
(per pair) are off ered. The frame adaptors
easily install over mobile column forks
and allow wheels to be fully accessible
to be worked on. They save shop fl oor
space by allowing a vehicle to be raised
by two mobile columns instead of four,
depending on vehicle weight.
Catenary-Free:
Ground-Level Power
Alstom Booth 7809
APS is a service-proven solution for catenary
free light rail and streetcar operation that
preserves city center aesthetics, reduces system
footprint by eliminating electrical poles,
optimizes safety for passengers, pedestrians
and road traffi c, and optimizes operation reliability. More than 12 years of experience
have demonstrated the key advantages of such a ground power supply solution, which
include no electrical power limitation, no risk of running out of power in degraded operation
mode, full compatibility with all types of road and track-bed surfaces, and easy
line extensions.
APS operates in harsh climatic conditions, such as extreme temperatures, humidity,
heavy rain, snow and ice. Moreover, APS matches catenary performance over unlimited
distances at speeds of up to 37 mph, regardless of slopes and while maintaining full
onboard utilities.
Since the fi rst implementation of the APS system in Bordeaux in 2003, 188 Citadis
(more than 350 ordered) light rail vehicles powered by APS have run 7.5 million miles
and 40 miles of single track have been equipped with APS. Most recently, the city of Rio
de Rio de Janeiro, host of the 2016 Summer Olympic Games, selected Alstom APS technology
in order to preserve and restore the city’s authentic architecture.
