ndian Railway CLW to meet higher output targets
Friday, 13 Nov 2009
Indian Railways’ premier electric locomotives production unit Chittaranjan Locomotive Works now proposes to manufacture a portion of its critical sub assemblies, such as shells and components such as cabs, side walls, roofs and head stocks, among other items at its proposed electric locomotive assembly and ancillary unit at Dankuni in West Bengal.
The proposed Dankuni ancillary unit to be set up by the Indian Railways on a Build, Own, and Operate basis will make static equipment such as traction converters, auxiliary converters and hotel load converters for the 3 phase 6,000 hp broad gauge passenger and freight locomotives made at CLW.
Mr VN Tripathi acting GM of CLW holding full charge as GM, Metro Rail of Kolkata said that some of the sub assembly items now being partly outsourced because of the increased production target set for CLW are proposed to be made at the Dankuni ancillary unit. He said the advanced IGBT technology will be used to establish the state-of-art regenerative braking system in 3-phase locos.
Pointing out that CLW was now well on its way to completing the job of manufacturing 230 electric locos during 2009-10 up from the 220 in 2008-09, Mr Tripathi said the Railways’ plan was to maintain a sustained rate of 230 electric locos per year by CLW for the next three years.
