With more than half a century of electric drive systems excellence, and over one billion hours of operation worldwide, #WabtecMining has the largest fleet of rugged, field-proven AC drive systems in the world. Our AC electric drive systems offer lower operating costs and higher haul productivity over mechanical drives. They eliminate wearing components such as torque converters, drive shafts, transmissions, and differentials to reduce maintenance, improve truck availability and lower lifecycle cost. In addition, the system’s broader retarding envelope reduces cycle time and brake wear, and its higher gradeability allows for steeper hauls which helps to increase overall productivity. Visit our website to learn more about our complete line of AC drive systems, ranging from 150 to 400-ton capacity: https://lnkd.in/ePkzfcBg #ACElectricDriveSystems #ElectricMine #ExpandThePossible #Innovation #RevolutionizeTheWayTheWorldMoves

Last week, representatives from Wabtec Corporation, VLI Logística, and the Brazilian government gathered in Contagem to the celebrate the delivery of the first batch of #ES43BBi locomotives. The new locomotives increase VLI’s cargo transportation capacity on the Centro-Atlântica Railway (FCA). The event was attended by the Governor of Minas Gerais, the Mayor of Contagem, and representatives from the Ministry of Transportation and the National Land Transport Agency (ANTT). Speakers highlighted the importance of this investment for expanding rail capacity, boosting the national rail industry, and promoting sustainable logistics in #Brazil. "Hosting an event like this with our valued partner VLI is truly an honor. This ceremony represents the strong collaboration between our companies and our shared commitment to transforming Brazil's logistics and transportation capabilities. By delivering these state-of-the-art locomotives, manufactured right here in Contagem, we are fulfilling a critical need for VLI and investing in the growth and modernization of the national rail industry. Events like this allow us to celebrate these milestones together, strengthening our partnership and looking ahead to the future possibilities as we work to revolutionize the way the world moves." - Danilo Miyasato, President and Regional Leader of Wabtec in Latin America #WabtecLATAM #WabtecBrazil #WabtecLocomotive #FreightRail #ExpandThePossible #RevolutionizeTheWayTheWorldMoves

Earlier this month, we proudly delivered our 2,000th modernized locomotive, a.k.a., “MOD”. Did you know our North American #modernization business did not even exist less than 10 years ago? Its creation hinged on big bets wagered in a challenging landscape as the railroad industry underwent major changes including #Tier4 emissions standards and #PrecisionScheduledRailroading initiatives. “It was a challenging time,” remembers Robert Bremmer, Wabtec’s Group Vice President of Product Management, “but we stuck together and doubled down with extreme urgency on all aspects of the program: optimizing the scope, improving manufacturing process documentation, re-training workers, and synchronizing our supply chain, thereby uniting around fulfilling our promise to our customer and our company.” He added, “While we missed the initial commitments, we put our passion and professionalism together to ultimately exceed expectations, rewarding the customer’s trust and patience.” Read more about the evolution of our MODS program: https://lnkd.in/eNYrZiRA #TrainsOfThought #WabtecFreightServices #CircularEconomy #Innovation #Sustainability #ExpandThePossible #RevolutionizeTheWayTheWorldMoves
