Nevomo, a Polish company specialised in hyperloop-inspired technologies, is expanding its presence both in Europe and India. When it comes to the Old Continent, the company partnered up with the Institute of Hyperloop Technology (IHT) and the German University of Emden-Leer in the context of the GoTube project. Moreover, Nevomo started collaborating with Umeandus to improve connectivity between Indian ports and the hinterland.<\/strong>
\n<\/span>Nevomo\u2019s MagRail Booster<\/a> will be integrated into the GoTube initiative, led by IHT and the University of Emden-Leer. This new project, christened CargoTube, is a low-pressure tube transport system. These systems entail the application of new technologies, such as Nevomo\u2019s, onto existing railway infrastructure, making it a cheaper solution than a full Hyperloop deployment. The first GoTube demonstrator is expected to be inaugurated on 23 May 2024, the IHT underlined.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe partnership between Nevomo and the Institute of Hyperloop Technology will prove that a seamless link of railway and hyperloop is technically doable, via MagRail as a bridging technology\u201d, said Stefan Kirch, Nevomo\u2019s Chief Commercial Officer. In other words, one of the main goals of this cooperation is to utilise the MagRail Booster as a bridging solution between traditional rail freight transport and Hyperloop systems.<\/p>\n

Nevomo and Umeandus in India<\/h2>\n

In addition to being selected by the IHT for the CargoTube projects, Nevomo is also looking to expand outside the EU borders. For example, the Polish company is expanding its scope to India thanks to a partnership with Umeandus, an Indian company specialising in the development of an Automated Container Evacuation System (ACES). Nevomo and Umeandus plan to combine their technologies to \u201cincrease virtual capacity across India\u2019s ports railways, and freight distribution facilities\u201d, as Nevomo mentioned. One of the goals is to increase capacity along the India-Middle East-Europe Corridor<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Nevomo is bringing to the table its MagRail Booster, a retrofit solution that uses electromagnetic propulsion with a linear motor and allows each wagon to move independently without a locomotive. Umeandus, on the other hand, can count on technologies such as e-FTS, Carri-Port and Directport. The first one is a rail-based technology that, through quick evacuation and intelligent track switching, can reduce dwell time for containers and bulk from days to minutes, according to the company. Carri-Port and DirectPort form a container handling system implemented at loading\/unloading port facilities. This product can create \u201cspace at the existing ports by reducing stacking and storing bulk or containers within port premise\u201d, Umeandus explained.<\/p>\n
