A game changer for rail logistics: digital automatic coupling (DAC) is the start of a technological revolution in rail freight transport.
Why is digital automatic coupling so revolutionary? Digital automatic coupling is a real boon for connecting freight trains. It joins the power, pneumatic and data lines fully automatically, allowing significantly more freight trains to be made available in less time. This technological innovation increases the capacities of marshalling yards and transhipment stations by up to 40%.
DAC also acts as a springboard for the automation and digitalisation of rail freight transport. This is why it is considered a key technology for the transport revolution.
Furthermore, digital automatic coupling reduces the manual workload during shunting. The introduction of DAC means workers no longer need to couple the individual wagons by hand using screw couplings as this can now be done by DAC. This gives workers more peace of mind as they head to work – not only is their job easier but there is also significantly less risk of injury.
