WorldTekhno.com- The Trackless Train (ART) or Autonomous Rail Transit designed for IKN has several interesting specifications. Here are some of them:
- Capacity: One train set with five carriages can accommodate up to 500 passengers.
- Speed: The maximum speed that can be achieved is 70 km/hour, but for operations in IKN it is limited to 40 km/hour.
- Technology: Equipped with sensors and radars at all corners that allow for unmanned operation (driverless). These sensors also function to identify virtual tracks and monitor road conditions.
- Battery: Uses a large capacity battery to support operations.
- Design: The interior is designed to be modern and comfortable, with ample space to accommodate passengers.
- Dimensions: Length about 30 meters, width about 2.65 meters, and full weight about 54 tons.
Advantages of ART:
- Efficient: Unmanned operations make operational costs more efficient.
- Environmentally friendly: Uses electrical energy from batteries so it is more environmentally friendly.
- Modern: The technology used is very sophisticated and modern.
- Large capacity: Can accommodate many passengers in one series.
Disadvantages of ART:
- New technology: As a new technology, it still requires further development, especially in terms of autonomous systems.
- Cost: Production and maintenance costs tend to be higher compared to conventional modes of transportation.
Why was it returned to China?
After going through a trial period, the train’s autonomous system was considered suboptimal and did not meet the expected standards. Several technical problems found were the main reasons for this return.
Note: The specifications above are subject to change at any time according to technological developments and needs.
