Artesyn Embedded Technologies has signed a MoU with Hyukshin Engineering Co. (South Korea) for the development of rail signaling solutions based on Artesyn’s ControlSafe Platform. The two companies will collaborate on the development of safety integrity level 4 (SIL4) commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) systems for train control and rail signaling.
Artesyn’s ControlSafe Platform is designed to meet rail functional safety, reliability and availability requirements, which makes it ideal for deployment in safety application environments to protect investment in rail infrastructure.
“Artesyn’s ControlSafe Platform provides an application-ready, cost-effective solution that can help us substantially accelerate time-to-market for our next generation computer-based interlocking (CBI) systems. By adopting the platform as a safety computing engine, we do not have to start our development from scratch, and therefore we can focus on the differentiation and value that makes Hyukshin a leading player in the industry. More importantly, we can significantly reduce the costs and risks of the SIL4 system development and certification process, saving potentially millions of dollars and many years,” Seunghyun Park, marketing director at Hyukshin Engineering, said.
