The electric traction department is a part of the Electrotechnical Institute and was founded in 1946. For 60 years the traction department has been successfully involved in most rail, tramcar and trolleybus projects in Poland.
Our main activity is the design and production of propulsion power converters, auxiliary traction converters, vehicle control systems and other electrical equipment for tramcars, trolleybuses, high power and shunting locomotives, local trains, rail buses and light trains. We also run our own R&D department, which works in several fields of traction including power converters, electrical machines and stray current analysis. Our laboratory is certified for testing all electrical traction equipment to be used in Poland.
During last few years our products and systems have been installed in many vehicles including:
We design and manufacture the following equipment for the new production and refurbishment of traction vehicles:
Other non-typical devices and systems can be produced to customer specifications.
Products currently being studied by our research and development team include a new type of high-power traction drive (propulsion), onboard static / auxiliary converters, stray current analysis and cathodic corrosion protection.
Our laboratory is well equipped with the highest class of measurement equipment and power supply for testing 600VDC, 750VDC, 1,500VDC, and 3,000VDC up to 3MW traction equipment. Our laboratory performs tests according to international railway and traction standards and work complies with the European ISO9001:2001.
