Leroy Automation, a cornerstone of AGÔN Electronics, boasts a rich history of over four decades in designing, manufacturing, and delivering state-of-the-art automation products and embedded electronic systems for the railway sector.  Leroy Automation stands at the forefront of transformative advancements in the railway industry, specializing in three critical market segments: Train Control and Monitoring Systems (TCMS), European Train Control Systems (ETCS) for mainlines, and Communication-Based Train Control (CBTC) for metro cars, extending to GoA4 driverless platforms. Leroy Automation has redefined the landscape of rail control technology with its cutting-edge modular solutions, and empowered its railway system architectures and solutions in collaboration with AGÔN Electronics group.

Let’s time-travel 40 years back in history at the roots of “Leroy Automatique Industrielle” (LAI).  The company was established in Toulouse by Mr Jean Leroy, a brilliant and passionate engineer graduated in 1967 from MINES Saint-Etienne (“Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Mines de Saint-Etienne”) after having spent 12+years at Merlin-Gerin in Grenoble, France – nowadays, Schneider Electric group.  He led his company “LAI” to success through visionary technologies and award-winning innovative ideas, navigating through the tumults of the electronic and automation markets. 

Creating a complete ecosystem for connected rolling stock is not without its challenges. However, by using an increasingly popular and proven model known as co-creation, Passengera, Advantech and Intel have come up with a fully scalable solution that not only enhances the passenger experience, but also provides genuine monetization opportunities.

Intel experts can provide advice and support as you guide railway operators on their journey to a smart railway. We help simplify the path to intelligent operations with our end-to-end portfolio of technologies, years of expertise, and engineering resources.

Our predecessor programme Shift2Rail participated back in 2016, and also in 2018, showcasing the very first results coming from the research and innovation partnership.

VARISTEP mechanical capacity control enables fine capacity adjustment for reciprocating compressors to effortlessly accommodate changing operating conditions. The extensive control range of around 25 to 100 per cent allows for outstanding full and part load efficiency and thus improves the efficiency of the entire air conditioning system.

Robust, yet quiet and light: air conditioning components for rail vehicles must fulfil a unique set of demands. Following analysis of customer requirements, BITZER developed the ultra-compact SPEEDLITE ELV52 compressor specifically on the basis of these factors.

SAMO II “next generation“ was the working title for a very ambitious development project by satek GmbH.

The entire knowledge and know-how from more than 20 years of experience should flow into the development of a modular principle for sanitary modules in rail vehicle use. The focus was on the design of a platform which, on the one hand, can be flexibly adapted to specific installation spaces and, at the same time, should serve the various variants of standard and universal use required in rail vehicle construction.

The solutions developed by Bächli draws on the company’s long-standing experience. The wide range of tried and trusted products – combined with the innovative capacity to develop new solutions – make Bächli the leader in technology for chokes and transformers used in rail technology.

The CLEARSY on-board simulator (also named EVC simulator) is implementing all functions described in SUBSET-026 concerning the on-board parts, including also the DMI functions in compliance with the ERA specification. It is a functional but non safe implementation installed on its hardware or delivered in a virtual machine.

Our predecessor programme Shift2Rail participated back in 2016, and also in 2018, showcasing the very first results coming from the research and innovation partnership.

Customer excellence: the use of AI applications to achieve better customer service and intelligence amongst authorities and operators’ is one focus area highlighted in the report Artificial Intelligence in Mass Public Transport, released in December 2018 by the UITP Asia-Pacific Centre for Transport Excellence.

Mobile air conditioning and heat pump systems for rail vehicles come with their own set of challenges. Factors such as space requirements, weight, efficiency and lifetime have a direct impact on investment and operating costs as well as future compatibility. To meet the specific requirements of railways, air conditioning components must therefore be compact, reliable, lightweight and have a low sound level – all features of the new scroll compressor SPEEDLITE ELV52 by BITZER. 

Our services include the support to industrialization, production, maintenance, supply chain, quality inspection, organization and continuous improvement.

BRIO is an Ethernet-based decentralized-remote input/output module, designed to be embedded on-board rolling stock vehicles.

The wide range of EN 50155 compliant DC/DC converters with 14 – 600 W are especially designed for vehicle and railway applications. Particularly for the sophisticated use in trains, these devices supply the electric and electronic systems on board and track side. Besides these rail converters, the product range includes AC/DC modules, filters and multi-power supply systems.
