TECHNICO-ECONOMIC EFFICACY IN THE PERFECTING OF AUTOMATIC COUPLING

TEHNIKO-EKONOMICESKAJA EFFEKTIVNOST SOVERSENSTVOVANIJA AVTOSCEPKI

The article examines the technico-economic effect resulting from the use of a more sophisticated automatic coupling. This coupling must comprise an inter-wagon train line of high reliability, controlling the uncoupling operations; it must provide for train formation without selection of wagons in accordance with coupler height, and allow for automation of the uncoupling procedure over marshalling yard humps.
