Center for practical implementation of string innovative technologies, their international expert evaluation and certification
1. Demonstrates the environmental potential of string technology — reducing land allocation for the route, consumption of material resources during construction and operation, as well as energy / fuel consumption during operation
2. Assists in certification of each complex and its components — transport overpass, rolling stock and infrastructure
3. Contributes to continuous development and modernization of string technology. Demonstrates relevant communication infrastructure, including bio- and agro-technologies
4. Presents current industrial models of transport and infrastructure complexes: passenger and cargo types
EcoTechnoPark carries out scientific research, experimental designing and technological works and certification of transport and infrastructure complexes (freight, urban and high-speed intercity types).
For 4 years, the test center has built 5 demonstration and certification test complexes of different types with a total length of more than 4 kilometers and the entire infrastructure of the "second level": stations, turn-out switches, engineering networks of water supply and sewerage, power supply systems with networks of the total capacity about 1,000 kilowatts, communication and intelligent control systems, equipped with a system of sensors and technical vision.
Standards are being worked out at one of the complexes for regions with tropical and subtropical climate, including rolling stock in a tropical version.
Semi-rigid track structure was upgraded to increase its load capacity by 3 times
On the truss-string overpass, the roller track was upgraded to fit the head of a belt-type rail to improve the evenness of the track, eliminate problems with smoothness and noise when driving electric vehicles
Different types of innovative jointless rail heads are being tested on the truss-string overpass — there will be not even welds that create additional knocking when the wheel is rolling due to local changes in steel hardness
A laboratory complex was built for testing individual units and components. It will test various designs of rails, wheels, current colection — checking wear and tear, noise, durability
