Digital interlocking
Digital interlocking – an essential component in reducing costs and increasing the competitiveness of railways.
Digital interlockings are the successors of electronic interlockings and replace various types and generations of existing interlocking systems with digital control and safety technology. In contrast to electronic interlockings, a digital interlocking transmits the control commands of the disposition digitally in real time over almost any distance via fibre optic cable to points and signals.
By standardising the interfaces, complete systems with components and technical solutions from various manufacturers can be implemented, continuously modified or expanded. Digital interlockings thus make a significant contribution to reducing time and costs. Whether installing, commissioning or maintaining railway infrastructure.
The expert teams for digital interlockings at quattron have extensive experience from the industry and railway operation side and have excellent knowledge of the advantages and disadvantages of digital interlocking modules and components offered on the market and the adjacent systems. We define the best overall solution from a technical, functional and economic point of view on the basis of your requirements.
Within the framework of EULYNX, quattron is working on the definition of future standards for the standardisation of signal components and signal interfaces.
