Growth Bar in Railway Traction Motor Industry Increases as New Technology Emerge
The global railway traction motor market is expected to reach $41.63 billion in 2025, from $30.28 billion in 2016, growing at a CAGR of 3.8% from 2017 to 2025. Railway traction motors are series-wound brushed DC motors, usually running on approximately 600 Volts. The availability of high-powered semiconductors (such as thyristors and the IGBT) have made the use of much simpler, higher-reliability AC induction motors known as asynchronous traction motors possible. The substantial improvement of the railroads in the twentieth century...
