KTS AZS Automatic Rolling Stock Chocking System

KTS AZS Chocking System is designed for automation of precise stopping and train chocking on reception and departure tracks on railway stations.

A train is chocked by electromechanically driven elements of the braking chock that change their position by an operator's command providing mechanical effect on rolling stocks' wheel pairs. The system prevents accidental movement of chocked rolling stock or its any part.
