 HISTORY OF MAGLEV TRAINS


 First model of magnetic train was devloped by alfred
zehden.
 In 1934 herman kemper become success in the
experiment of magnetic levitation.
 In 1959 1st magnetic train for public transport build
in england.
 PERSENT MAGLEV TRAIN

 Japan is operating independently developed maglev train since 1969.

 Highest recorded maglev speed is 603 km/hr achieved in japan in

2015.
 China started maglev train in 2004 and planning to extend its track to
more 200km.
 MAGLEV:THE PRINCIPLE

 A method of supporting and transporting objects
based on physical property of magnetism.
 Alternative way of travelling vechile without
friction using magnetic levitation.
 Principle of magnetic suspension is used to suspend
vechile.
TECHNOLOGY IN MAGLEV TRAINS


 Maglev uses any of two type of technology for its working
a) EMS b)EDS
 EMS(electromagnetic suspension)-Train Levitates above a
steel rail while electromagnet attached to the train are
oriented toward rail from below.
 
 EDS(electrodynamic suspension)-Both the guideway
and the train exert a magnetic field and train
levitated by repulsive and attractive force.
 WORKING OF MAGLEV TRAIN

 MAGLEV TRACK- Magnetized coil runs along the track which repels the
large magnet on the undercarriage
 PROPULSION SYSTEM- Longstator linear motor is used for both
propulsion and braking
 OPERATION CONTROL SYSTEM-Controls the operation and
guarantees the safety of maglev system.
 ADVANTAGE OF MAGLEV

 FASTEST TRIP-It is the fastest way of transportation
after air.
 EFFICIENCY-Experience no rolling resistance, leaving
only air resistance and electromagnetic drag.
 Less polluting and petroleum independence transport
system.
 Provides an alternative to air transport.
 DISADVANTAGE OF MAGLEV TRAINS

 HIGH INITIAL COST-Require all new infrastruture for
their entire route.
 A very strong magnetic field is required to levitate a
massive train.
 CONTROL SYSTEM-Needs very fast responding control
system to maintain a stable height above the track.
 Any small fault in system can result in a big accidents.
 FUTURE EXPANSION

 Hoped to be used to transport system on the greater extent
all across the world.
 Some company like toshiba elevator and building system
have developed the 1st elevator control by magnetic
levitation.
 Future technology can get the maglev train to operate at a
very high speed.
 CONCLUSION

 Maglev trains are going to be the new way of
transportation.
 Competiting planes with speed ,ship with efficiency,
traditional trains with safety it seems like a promising
means of transport.
 System encourages land conservation especially useful
where land is costly on available.
