ABB Jiangjin Turbocharger System Co., LTD. research and development and
production of turbocharger, CRRC Qishuyan company newly built six HXN5B
high-power shunting diesel locomotive operation, for the China-Laos railway
along the Kunming Ningxia Erh Wild elephant Valley Mohan and other 6 large
freight yard services, to ensure the power and efficiency of locomotive operation,
help it smoothly perform the duty of shunting in frequent start and braking.
ABB has close cooperation with CRRC Qishuyan Co., LTD., and has cooperated in
several key Belt and Road projects in various countries to play 1+1& GT; As early
as 2019, ABB provided TPR56FV turbochargers for all HXN5B locomotives in the
two new lines of China-Europe international freight train drawn by THE HXN5B
locomotives produced by CRRC Qishuyan Co., LTD. This time, ABB once again
helped HXN5B locomotives, providing strong power for train marshalling and
shunting safety.
Because of the large ramp and small radius of curvature of railway line, the speed
of locomotive is low in traction or propulsion operation, and in sliding and shifting
operation, the load of train changes greatly. The locomotive often starts at full load
to overcome the inertia resistance of the train, and quickly becomes the brake to
offset the inertia momentum of the train. The load often fluctuates greatly and changes
rapidly. The harsh environment has brought great challenges to the long-term and
reliable use of turbocharger. In response to this situation, THE TPR56FV turbocharger
developed by ABB has been optimized in its structural design, production process, and
material application. It is a flagship product with high efficiency and high pressure ratio
of VTG technology and features such as high efficiency and long maintenance cycle,
which can fully adapt to the needs of shutting operations.
As a new generation of turbocharging products specially designed for long-distance
and heavy-duty railway diesel locomotive and shunting locomotive,ABB has developed
and produced more than 3,500 TPR series turbochargers worldwide, serving all kinds of
heavy-duty trunk locomotive and shunting locomotive under harsh load distribution
and environmental conditions ABB will continue to create more value for customers
with its leading turbocharging technology and localized services, and contribute to the
construction of the Belt and Road initiative and the high-quality development of the
locomotive industry.
