asto telematics wins major order for railway traction vehicle equipment
asto telematics was awarded a further major order for specific equipment for railway traction vehicles. The railway engines operate on German as well as European tracks and will be equipped with the autonomous aJour EnerMatics-100 system, a highly specific data handling system which combines telematics and e-metering capabilities. The roll out plan is scheduled for the balance of 2017.
The successfully established aJour EnerMatics product range serves to download, store, enrich and transfer complex energy consumption data. These data sets are being processed live, in traction mode of the engines. To produce precise energy consumption details is a critical requirement to allocate the energy costs, since numerous local electricity utilities provide and charge for the electricity in the European railway network.
