On November 23, the first “Binhai-built” smart metro vehicle: The second-phase vehicle of Tianjin Metro Line 6 has officially completed.
This is the first rail transit vehicle in Tianjin that uses fully automated driving technology, and also the first subway car manufactured in Binhai New Area. The vehicle adopts a lightweight A-type aluminum alloy body, with 4 motors, 2 tows and 6 sections.
According to the CRRC, the train adopts the highest level of automated driving technology and features a series of functions such as automatic wake-up, automatic departure, parking and environment detection. At the same time, a vehicle intelligent operation and maintenance system based on fault prediction and condition management is configured to collect data throughout the metro system. The application of big data analysis technology will assist in the metro’s operations by enabling real-time monitoring, potential failure warnings, general assessment of conditions, and decision support of metro operations, all of which will improve safety, efficiency, and cost reduction.
