Descrizione del progetto
Costruire treni del futuro più leggeri e veloci
La prossima generazione di treni passeggeri sarà più leggera ed efficiente in termini di energia e costi. Ciò richiede l’utilizzo di tecnologie composite, che affrontino gli ostacoli per la piena implementazione, quali i loro costi elevati. La progettazione modulare di interni e la produzione a basso costo di componenti dei veicoli sarà altrettanto importante. Il progetto CARBODIN, finanziato dall’UE, produrrà componenti più leggeri per carrozzeria e, porte, e migliorerà il design degli interni dei treni passeggeri. Esso combinerà inoltre diverse tecniche di produzione, concetti di automazione, introduzione di elementi compositi co-trattati e co-legati, nonché giunti e inserti integrati multimateriale. Inoltre, la manutenzione predittiva sarà rinforzata dalla verifica di nodi sensoriali intelligenti. CARBODIN faciliterà anche la progettazione di interni treni dall’estetica attraente attraverso uno strumento di configurazione basato sulla realtà virtuale.
Obiettivo
The success of the European rail system requires cost-efficient passenger trains with high capability and reliability. The development of these high demanding trains involves a concerted effort in improving a comprehensive range of elements. CARBODIN contributes to this effort by combining the research effort along with the future CFM-IP1-01-2019 and the ongoing CFM-IP1-01-2017 projects to manufacture car body shell parts, doors and to improve the interior design of passenger trains.
CARBODIN will improve car body shell manufacture by exploring the possibilities offered by composite materials. To this end, CARBODIN advocates for a modular tooling to manufacture a wide range of parts of varying size. In addition, the proposed process will combine different production techniques, automation concepts, introduction of co-cured and co-bonded composite parts and multi-material integrated joints and inserts. Besides, predictive maintenance will be reinforced by testing intelligent sensor nodes.
Composite materials will also be the core idea for cost-efficient doors with reduced LCC. The creation of modular tooling combined with 3D technology will enable the production of lighter doors with enhanced thermal and acoustic properties in the door and its vicinity.
CARBODIN will facilitate the design of attractive train interiors by developing a configuration tool based on virtual reality. This will be complemented by innovative manufacturing tools for interior components. Other strategies for improving cost-effectiveness of manufacturing processes such as the integration of low-volt circuits in panels will be also explored. CARBODIN also aims at improving the performance of the future HMI system through a European survey to identify key interactions such as drivers’ gestures or voices.
CARBODIN will benefit from a strong multidisciplinary consortium, made of 14 partners from 7 countries, committed to the mentioned actions towards maximisation of the project’s impact.
