CSR makes breakthrough in high-speed train motors  

中国南车成功研制出新型动车组“心脏”系统

永磁动车组是目前中国正在研发的新型动车组。永磁动车组使用的600kW永磁同步牵引电动机30日在中国南车株洲所研制成功，这标志着中国最大功率永磁同步牵引电机成功完成试制。

Beijing (CNS) -- The Zhuzhou Institute of China South Locomotive & Rolling Stock Corporation Limited (CSR) on Wednesday successfully completed a permanent magnet synchronous motor (600kW) for China's new breed of high-speed trains.

The motor system is the heart of a train because it decides the dynamic, power consumption, and control capacity of the vehicle, according to experts at the institute.

Permanent magnet synchronous motors are stable, efficient, light, space-saving, quiet and reliable, and save 10 percent more energy than traditional motors.

The Zhuzhou Institute has been carrying out the research and development program since 2003.
