The characteristics of the braking system mainly include the following aspects:
High safety: The braking system is designed with a variety of safety mechanisms in mind, such as anti-skid devices and fault-guided safety mechanisms. The anti-skid device can effectively prevent wheel tread scratches, improve ride comfort, and avoid additional stress on components such as axles. The fault-guided safety mechanism ensures that when a brake system fails, it can automatically switch to other braking methods to ensure safety.
Accurate control: The braking system adopts microcomputer control, which can accurately provide the required braking force, and reasonably design the composite braking mode to ensure that different types of braking forces achieve the best combination effect.
High comfort: The braking system reduces the rate of change of deceleration, eases the longitudinal impact force between vehicles, and improves ride comfort by optimizing the control process.
High reliability: The braking system is designed with "fault-guided safety" and "prevention of misoperation" mechanisms in mind to ensure stable operation under various working conditions and reduce the possibility of misoperation.
Easy maintenance: The EMU is designed with self-diagnosis function in mind, which reduces wear parts and greatly reduces maintenance workload.
Lightweight design: The brake system adopts modular design and integrates brake components to achieve small and lightweight. For example, the electric-air-hydraulic mode of air brake is converted into electric-hydraulic direct conversion mode, which saves a lot of accessories.
