The global electro-pneumatic train brakes market size is anticipated to grow from USD 10 billion to USD 14.80 billion in 10 years. The market will experience rapid growth due to the increased research and development expenditure during the forecast period. The population density with an extensive and diverse rail network and a significant proportion of the population that relies on rail transportation will drive the Asia Pacific market's growth.
Newark, Jan. 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Brainy Insights estimates that the USD 10 billion in 2022 global electro-pneumatic train brakes market will reach USD 14.80 billion in 2032. A sophisticated braking mechanism is the electro-pneumatic train brake. The naming suggests that it is a combination of electrical and pneumatic elements. Conventional brake systems just use compressed air; electro-pneumatic brakes use electrical control to adjust the amount of pneumatic pressure that is applied and released. Improved responsiveness and increased precision are made possible by this electrical control. Electronics integration improves efficiency, safety, and flexibility in the rail transportation sector. Furthermore, electronic control has a quicker response time, minimizing stopping delay or greatly shortening stopping distance. Additionally, they make braking action more effective and seamless. Their greatest advantage is the versatility of electro-pneumatic train brakes, which allows them to be used on various types of trains and terrain. This brake system's energy recapture increases overall efficiency and contributes to sustainability. Since electropneumatic train brakes provide increased performance, safety, and efficiency, they are essential to modernizing rail transportation.
