Report Scope

Global Railway Traction Motor Market: Description

A traction motor in railways generally constitutes of an electric motor, which mainly converts the electrical energy into torque energy, and it is connected to a shaft that results in linear motion. Additionally, traction motors are powered by electricity and generates the power in order to rotate the wheels of the train. The turning force is thus, produced by traction motors that is transmitted to the wheels through the driving gear unit and axle. Also, the traction motors are mounted in the railway rolling stocks, where the wheels are housed. The reduced number of components for fewer items requires maintenance as well as reduction in frequency. The completely sealed structure and improved accessory devices that includes, cooling fans have helped to keep noise levels low in railway traction motors over the forecast period.

Railway is mainly a preferred choice and it is more economical for mass transportation of goods and products for longer distances as when compared to roadways. Also, the performance of railway engines and motors has been rising in terms of speed and safety of the locomotives because of the technological advancements. The railway traction motor market is affected by financial crisis and economic slowdown because of the pandemic situation COVID19 that has had a negative impact on the industry growth.

One of the major factor that has boosted the market growth over the forecast period is the incorporation of the traction motors in railway engines. Also, the lower emission, and the low manufacturing as well as maintenance costs have fuelled the market growth over the forecast period. Additionally, traction motors have become a significant component in railway locomotives and the popularity of metro locomotives, mainly in the urban areas is also anticipated to drive the demand for railway traction motors over the forecast period.

One of the major restrain that has hampered the market growth over the forecast period is the rising price of material and high investment costs. These factors have acted as a major restrain to the market growth. This is because not everyone is able to afford so much and thus, there is less production by the major companies.
