Končar’s Role in Modernizing Transportation with ANTONICS Antennas

Končar’s Role in Modernizing Transportation with ANTONICS Antennas

Since 1921, Končar has been a pioneering force in Croatian engineering, headquartered in Zagreb, and renowned for its role in developing transportation equipment for public transport. With a global presence, Končar has played a pivotal role in modernizing transportation systems in Croatia and beyond. In collaboration with system integrator ELEKTROKEM d.o.o. and electro-mechanical distributor ORBAN Tehnika, Končar has implemented revolutionary ANTONICS antennas, transforming railway communication and modernizing trains, trams, and locomotives. Končar’s commitment to innovation and collaboration continues to shape the future of transportation on a global scale.

Partnership with ORBAN Tehnika and ELEKTROKEM

Established in 1991, ORBAN Tehnika has solidified its position as a trusted sales partner of ANTONICS, specializing in distributing electromechanical components for public transport. In collaboration with ELEKTROKEM, ORBAN Tehnika has partnered with Končar to revolutionize public transportation services. This advancement has been fueled by integrating cutting-edge ANTONICS antennas, facilitated by ELEKTROKEM’s development of two tailored systems for trains and trams. ORBAN Tehnika’s continuous support and bringing the technology leaders together has been integral to Končar’s achievements, offering expertise and solutions across past, present, and future endeavors. Their unwavering assistance cultivates lasting relationships crucial to Končar’s ongoing initiatives.

ELEKTROKEM’s Advanced Systems

ELEKTROKEM has engineered an advanced GPS train tracking and station announcement system, customized to meet Croatian Railways‘ specific passenger transportation needs. This system seamlessly integrates with the announcement and information display systems found in Končar-KEV’s low-floor trains. Crafted with precision, ELEKTROKEM’s system boasts state-of-the-art hardware and software, including components like the ANTONICS OmPlecs-TOP 200 AMR MF-04-5-MIMO LG and V-AMR-GPS/GLONASS, ensuring unmatched performance and reliability.

ANTONICS Antennas: Revolutionizing Railway Communication

The utilization of ANTONICS antennas signifies a pivotal advancement in Končar’s projects, underscored by their exceptional performance and reliability, supported by certifications such as EN 50155 and EN 45545. ANTONICS technology convinces through the multifunctionality of OmPlecs Multi-band technology encapsulated within a compact housing, boasting a small height ranging from 40 to 60 mm and exceptional mechanical resistance. This innovative housing accommodates up to eight antennas, offering a versatile solution for diverse communication needs. The seamless integration of these antennas into various settings exemplifies Končar’s commitment to innovation in railway communication. Moreover, the success of these antennas is complemented by Končar’s contributions to cutting-edge train fleets, tram fleet modernization, and locomotive modernization, highlighting the company’s dedication to revolutionizing transportation systems.

Innovative Train Fleets

Končar’s contributions extend to the development and delivery of cutting-edge train fleets. The HŽ series 6112, comprising low-floor electric multiple units, operates across suburban, regional, and InterCity routes. Featuring advanced amenities and seamless communication systems, these trains offer optimized operations and elevated passenger comfort. Similarly, the 7023 series DMUs, designed for regional services, incorporate modern conveniences and efficient diesel engines, expanding Končar’s range of passenger trains. Both fleets are equipped with ANTONICS antennas that support station announcements, energy measurement systems, train tracking and passenger Wi-Fi, adding to user satisfaction.

Tram Fleet Modernization

Zagreb’s tram fleet underwent significant upgrades, with Končar at the forefront. The TMK 2200, a low-floor tram, revolutionized urban transportation with its innovative design and modern features. Thanks to ANTONICS, state-of-the-art Wi-Fi features could be equipped in the tram. Končar’s involvement in delivering these trams underscores its commitment to advancing sustainable mobility within the city and beyond.

Revolutionizing Locomotives

Končar’s legacy extends to locomotive modernization. The 1142 series locomotives, originally developed as Yugoslavia’s fastest electric locomotives, underwent upgrades to enhance efficiency and reduce operating costs. Station announcement, train tracking, and energy measurement were implemented with ANTONICS, making it a best practice for retrofit projects thanks to the combination of the latest technology and historical engineering. These locomotives symbolize Končar’s dedication to innovation and excellence in rail transport.

Pioneering the Future of Transportation through Innovation and Collaboration

Končar’s success story exemplifies its commitment to transforming the transportation landscapes through innovation, collaboration, and superior engineering. As a global leader, Končar continues to shape the future of transportation, driving progress and sustainability in communities worldwide with the help of ELEKTROKEM, ORBAN Tehnika, and ANTONICS.
