Full System Approach: in order to
effectively answer to all the transportation
solutions market needs, AnsaldoSTS improved its
System conception from the Extended to the Full
System Approach, taking into account all the
possible transportation system’s External

design to O&M)
With this new vision the transportation systems are not just
the solutions to the traffic congestion but are a living part of
the city answering to the passenger and operators needs of
today and tomorrow

27. Operating Principle
Power Collector
When the bogie pantograph is retracted in rest position:
The power collector in the upper position is unable to activate
the power line segments; the pulling force is not enough to lift
up the belt
The vehicle can run over the line in coasting without activating
the segments
All the segments are not energized and connected to ground
27

28. Operating Principle
Power Collector
When the bogie pantograph is released:
The power collector is in contact with the segments and its
magnetic force attracts the flexible ferromagnetic belt, that push
up the internal movable conductive contacts, allowing the
closing of the electric circuit and so the power transmission
from the segments, in contact with the collector, and the vehicle

33. TramWave: main benefits for sustainable
urban mobility
• Make the urban context more liveable, removing the visual impact of overhead
catenaries and poles from squares, buildings, monuments, historical areas, etc…
• Continuous power transmission from contact line to vehicles without any
interruption/charging times (for both traction and auxiliaries)
• No need of on-board big and heavy storage energy systems (supercapacitors)
• No need of electronic devices
• The closing of the traction electric circuit doesn’t foreseen the use of the tracks
no
more problem due to the effects of stray currents, preserving the underground utilities
(water and gas pipelines, electricity network underground cables, etc…) and the rails
less maintenance costs.
from electrolysis effects
• Possibility to have a mixed power-supply system, by mean having Tramwave and
traditional catenaries on the same tramway line (ex. Tramwave in the historical centres
and catenaries in the suburbs), moreover it’s possible to feed with Tramwave rubber
tired vehicles like busses
• Regenerative Breaking and energy saving
