The longest distance in the world is not half a world apart, but the fact that your dreamed cargo has already been shipped out however the updated logistics information for the parcel is always “pending on the road”.

世界上最遥远的距离不是天各一方，而是你心仪的货物早已发货，但物流却一直显示在路上。

In our daily live, surely we all are worried about the current ground transportation traffic full with pressure and congestion. Just imagine that the life would be better if the space resource can be taken better use of by developing air tracks, through which accessesyour cargo may arrive to you in a moment since all cargo achieve free pass “in the air” unimpeded.

生活中，想必我们都会对目前紧张、拥堵的地面交通感到苦恼。设想下如果能充分利用空间资源，在空中开辟通道，货物在空中自由穿梭、畅行无阻，你的货物须臾之间即可送达，那生活是不是变得更加美好了。

In fact, your imagined three-dimensional transportation network with air tracks is nearer than just “futuristic”, for the “Multi-modal Transporting & Intelligent Air-track Collection and Distribution System” developed by CRRC has made the imagination comes true.

其实，你所设想的立体交通的未来比你想象的更接近，因为中国中车“多式联运智能空轨集疏运系统”已让设想成为现实。

It is known to all that the current transportation modes of railway, waterway, highway and airfreight can not achieve seamless connected with each other. The “intermediate one kilometer” of the multi-modal transport with issues of troublesome loading/unloading operations, high logistics costs, low transportation efficiency that urgently needs to be addressed.

However, the innovative developed “Multi-modal Transporting & Intelligent Air-track Collection and Distribution System” system by CRRC Yangtze Co., Ltd however breaks this deadlock by taking advantages of the air tracks to achieve the “seamless connected” relay transported between the logistics systems like railway, waterway, highway, air freight and so on.

众所周知，目前铁路、水运、公路、航空等运输方式还做不到无缝化连接，装卸货麻烦，物流成本高，运输效率低，多式联运“中间一公里”亟需解决。中车长江车辆有限公司创新研发的“多式联运智能空轨集疏运系统”则打破这一僵局，借助于空中轨道，实现了铁路、水运、公路、航空等物流体系的“无缝化衔接”接力运输。

As a freight transportation type, there’s no exception that the “Multi-modal Transporting & Intelligent Air-track Collection and Distribution System” is mainly comprised of two parts of railway track and the power motor carrier.

作为一种货物运输方式，“多式联运智能空轨集疏运系统”也毫不例外的是由运行轨道及货运动车两大部分组成。

What makes it special is the running track of the system is in the air above the ground, which is able to be constructed over the water area or hilly land with gentle slopes without ground land restrictions. The system is also able to be well integrated into the existing equipment of the container collecting/ distributing centers. The maximum longitudinal gradient may reach 8%, with minimum plane curve radius of 50m and minimum vertical curve radius of 800m making it possible for transporting the goods upslope/ downslope or turning without disturbing.

比较特别的是该系统运行轨道建立在地面上空，基本不受用地限制，可以跨水域、丘陵缓坡建造，可以与集装箱集散中心现有的设施进行无缝衔接，最大纵坡达到8%，最小平面曲线半径为50m，最小竖曲线半径为800m,货物上下坡、转弯运输都不是问题。

After the powered motor carriers grab or transfer the standard containers or special collecting/distributing transporting units through special intelligent lifting appliances, they operates along the enclosed tracks and complete the transferring distributing of the cargo throughout the planned route lines. Immune to the inclement weather, the system truly realizes operations for 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.

货运动车通过专用智能吊具提取或转运标准集装箱及专用集运载单元后，沿着封闭的轨道内运行，通过规划好的线路完成货物的转运分配，而且不受恶劣天气影响，真正做到全天候、全时段运营。

After knowing the basic knowledge of the “Multi-modal Transporting & Intelligent Air-track Collection and Distribution System”, questions may arise like what kind of power that is capable to support such a huge system, what controls the starting, running, braking, loading/unloading of the powered motor carriers and whether it is safe for heavy-duty cargo to shuttle in the air.

看完“多式联运智能空轨集疏运系统”的基本工作原理后，不禁要问这么庞大的系统靠什么动力驱动，货运动车启动、行驶、制动、装卸等动作又靠什么控制，重大货物在空中穿梭到底安不安全。

The “Multi-modal Transporting & Intelligent Air-track Collection and Distribution System” is the high-end logistics system equipped with advantages like green, energy-saving, high efficiency, intelligent, and safety, etc.; the whole operational process realizes remote intelligent control, unmanned driving, unmanned operation, zero interference and no congestion; the primary and secondary safety protection devices and traffic safety protection system are established to achieve double-insurance for the safety of the carriers.

“多式联运智能空轨集疏运系统”是集绿色、节能、高效、智能、安全等众多优点的高端物流系统装备。系统运营全过程全电驱动，安静、节能、绿色环保；运营全过程实现远端智能化操控，无人驾驶、无人作业、无干扰、无拥堵；设置了车辆一级、二级安全防护装置和交通安全防护系统，实现了安全双保险。

The “Multi-modal Transporting & Intelligent Air-track Collection and Distribution System” builds up the three-dimensional transportation networks of the future logistics on basis of the three-dimensional traffic concept. This is how the system builds up the better future using technologies and intelligence.

“多式联运智能空轨集疏运系统”以立体交通的思维构建未来物流的立体运输网络，用科技与智慧创造着美好未来。
