The market of components for transport manufacturers is underdeveloped, and this serves as a considerably debilitating factor for the development of the industry. A total of more 85% of malfunctioning incidents is related to poor quality of parts and components.
“Strategy for Development of Transport Manufacturing in the Russian Federation in 2007-2010 and for the Period Through 2015.”
There still exist considerable difficulties with components and parts for railroad manufacturing. Nevertheless, for many years GERSYS GmbH has served as a reliable manufacturer of onboard computers for the engine driver’s cabin. This equipment is supplied onto the Russian market by ITC Electronics Company, which is one of the market leaders on the market of components and automation in Russia and across the FSU countries. The cooperation between ITC-Electronics, with its own office in Germany and GERSYS GmbH serves a guarantee of low prices, best terms and timely technical support for customers acquiring GERSYS products.
This German company from Upper Bavaria has been working on development and manufacturing of onboard computers for railways, military and other types of special equipment for more than 25 years. Their thought-through approach to automating engine performance and extensive experience in designing MMIs (Man-Machine Interfaces) made this company a leader in the sector. The equipment that the company offers to the market is one of the well-tested and fail-safe systems. All major internationally famous train engine manufacturers have been including GERSYS online computers in their train operation cabins for a long time already. Large train engine manufacturers from Europe, the US, Canada, and CIS countries are among permanent customers of the company. Cooperating with ITC-Electronics in Eastern Europe, this German manufacturer delivers its equipment to all major train engine building enterprises in Russia, for both electric trains and locomotives.
GERSYS explains the secret of its success very simply: the reserves and capabilities of the equipment they produce exceed significantly the conditions in most heavy, extreme, and unconventional environments. To achieve such high indicators, most of the company’s production facilities in Wolfratshausen (Germany) has been dedicated to testing labs, where the compliance of these computers with European railway standards EN50155 and EN5012 is tested. All the manufactured machines undergo the following types of tests:
- Electric magnet compatibility with other equipment.
- Climatic testing in aggressive environments.
- Testing for hit and vibration resistence.
The machines that do not pass these tests are simply removed from the cycle. The necessary tests, as well as other additional tests help guarantee future fail-free performance of MMI onboard computers. Parts and elements of GERSYS computers come from the leaders of the industry: Microsoft, Intel, IXXAT, Duagon, TQ Components, ALI and others, which guarantees reliability and minimizes risks of unconventional situations in applying these MMI devices. Onboard computers of high quality allow the engine operator and the developer of the operation system to feel confident and safe.
Reliability and long-time service life of GERSYS MMI train onboard computers have been confirmed by ISO 9001 TUV certificate, a multi-year warranty of the manufacturer and a large number of machines in operation throughout the world.
Undoubtedly, the number of tasks facing the Russian transport machine-building sector is immense, and many of these are strategic for the company as a whole. However, we can confidently say that the overall success of the strategy will be built from the successes of its separate parts and components, their quality and compliance with all the requirements. GERSYS computers and their supplier in Russia, ITC-Electronics Company, correspond to the requirements of the Strategy.
