GMEINDER RAILBOUND ELECTRIC AND HYBRID LOCOMOTIVES
ZAGRO Group includes GMEINDER locomotives models in both electric and hybrid options. The DE75 shown here is a robust shunting locomotive made for heavy-duty shunting service. The electric power transmission, using four independently controlled traction motors, realizes an optimum friction coefficient utilization, and at the same time the use of different energy sources. Due to the symmetrical layout of the locomotive, two independent energy sources are installed, e.g. two Diesel Gensets (Dual Engine Locomotive), or one Diesel Genset and a Lithium-Ion Traction Battery (Hybrid Locomotive). Even the energy supply via Third Rail (DC 750 V) or Catenary is possible. Consequently, the symmetric composition of the locomotive is continued with the Power Electronics. Two independent subsystems are the guarantee for maximum utility of the locomotive.
