locomotive traction motor pinion EMD 9556211 SUPCO Canada Railway will prolong the locomotive traction motor pinion life span and reduce the maintenance costs of different types of traction motors. How the improvement in the design of a traction motor pinion by SUPCO will prolong the pinion life span and reduce the maintenance costs of different types of traction motors. When it comes to traction motor pinion gears, there is always a slight sliding or slipping on both sides of pitch point over tooth curvature. This sliding causes pitting and damages the traction motor pinion teeth, which as a consequence produces torsional vibration when rotating the gearwheel, and damaging the traction motor. In this paper, SUPCO demonstrates the root cause of such damages and proposes the method for how to improve the traction motor pinions. Contact SUPCO for more information on traction motors. About SUPCO SUPCO is a company that is producing and exporting Traction Motor Pinion Gears. It includes e...
  A.C. vs. D.C.  traction motors     refers to the electrical transmission: D.C.:  The engine drives an A.C. main generator, which generates A.C. current rectified to D.C. by diodes that powers D.C. traction motors.  The advantage is significantly lower initial cost.  Disadvantages are higher maintenance costs for the traction motors, less tractive effort at low speeds (less than ~ 11 mph). A.C.:  The engine drives the same A.C. main generator, which generates A.C. current rectified to D.C. by diodes.  From that point it differs: the D.C. current is converted to A.C. which powers A.C. traction motors.  The advantages and disadvantages are opposite a D.C. locomotive. (You might be wondering why the A.C. locomotive goes from A.C. to D.C. and back to A.C.; the answer is that the D.C. rectification provides "clean" current that the invertors can use to create the proper frequency needed by the traction motors. The reason the main generator i...

  The world is in the midst of a COVID-19 pandemic. As WHO and partners work together on the response -- tracking the pandemic, advising on critical interventions, distributing vital medical supplies to those in need--- they are racing to develop and deploy safe and effective vaccines.  Vaccines save millions of lives each year. Vaccines work by training and preparing the body’s natural defences – the immune system – to recognize and fight off the viruses and bacteria they target. After vaccination, if the body is later exposed to those disease-causing germs, the body is immediately ready to destroy them, preventing illness. As of 18 February 2021, at least seven different vaccines across three platforms have been rolled out in countries. Vulnerable populations in all countries are the highest priority for vaccination. At the same time, more than 200 additional vaccine candidates are in development, of which more than 60 are in clinical development. COVAX is part of ...
