To achieve its goals, the enterprise is systematically updating its material and technical base by implementing the latest technologies for diagnosing and repairing rolling stock. In particular, modern equipment and specialized systems are being procured, which allows for increased accuracy in identifying faults, expedited repair processes, and compliance with established safety standards.
These changes in the repair infrastructure not only boost productivity but also improve working conditions for specialists and reduce risks associated with the operation of rolling stock.
Priority in Locomotive Management
The branch of the state enterprise "National Company 'Kyrgyz Temir Zholu'" responsible for locomotive management plays a key role in ensuring the stable and safe operation of diesel locomotives. This directly affects the fulfillment of plans for freight and passenger transportation, as well as the safety of train movements. The main task of the branch is to maintain the operability of the locomotive fleet and ensure its efficient operation.
In this context, the branch is actively working on the maintenance and monitoring of the operational characteristics of locomotives. Special attention is given to safety issues, with measures being developed to prevent emergency situations and violations.
Modern Technologies in Diesel Locomotive Repair
Over the past five years, as part of the branch's modernization, new test benches with software have been acquired, which eliminate the human factor in the process of repairing locomotive equipment. This has significantly improved the quality of repairs and diagnostics of diesel locomotive spare parts, which, in turn, has reduced the number of unscheduled repairs.
In 2025, there are also plans to retrofit the TE33A and TE10M locomotives with new train control safety systems, BORT. This system is more economical and functional compared to the outdated KLUB system, providing control over diesel fuel consumption and the presence of video surveillance.
Updating Laboratory Equipment
Additionally, the chemical laboratory of the branch has updated its equipment, including photoelectric photometers and analyzers, which has increased the reliability of determining the quality of fuel and lubricants.
As part of the modernization project, new types of locomotive repairs that were previously carried out abroad are being mastered in collaboration with LLC "NPC Promtech," thanks to the acquisition of new equipment.
Creation of a Modern Repair Complex
The modernization project aims to create an efficient repair base, which will allow for comprehensive repairs of locomotives on-site, minimizing the need to engage external contractors.
The main goals of the project are:
- Ensuring the comprehensive repair of locomotives at the branch's base.
- Reducing operational costs through increased efficiency.
- Improving the reliability and safety of the transportation process.
- Creating new jobs and developing a skilled workforce.
- Implementing modern service standards and automating processes.
This will attract orders from other countries for the repair and maintenance of locomotives, expanding the production capabilities of the branch.
Modernization in the Non-Destructive Testing Laboratory
The non-destructive testing laboratory acquired modern ultrasonic flaw detection trolleys in 2022, which improved the accuracy and timeliness of defect detection in rails. In 2025, plans are in place to update old equipment with more modern devices, which will also impact work efficiency.
Ensuring Reliable Power Supply and Signaling
The branch responsible for power supply and signaling is modernizing its equipment to ensure the reliable operation of safety and communication systems on the railway. The implementation of new technologies, such as LEDs, also contributes to energy savings.
Wagon Management Branch
The branch carries out the maintenance and repair of wagons, implementing modern working methods and equipment to enhance the quality and efficiency of repair processes.
Plans include the installation of new systems for dismantling and assembling wagon parts, which will significantly reduce repair time and increase throughput.
Updating Equipment in the Track Management Sector
The modernization of the production base of the branch in track management continues, focusing on updating the fleet of machinery and equipment. The introduction of new mechanisms and vehicles allows for increased work volumes and improved logistics, leading to higher productivity.
Thus, the state enterprise "National Company 'Kyrgyz Temir Zholu'" continues to actively develop, implementing modern technologies and improving the quality of its services to ensure the reliability and safety of railway transport.
