Abstract
The paper examines the existing technological process for equipping a locomotive with sand using the example of the 3ES5K electric locomotive. One of the main disadvantages is the excessive time standards for filling it with sand, which leads to downtime of the locomotive. It is proposed to automate the existing process of filling a locomotive with sand by introducing an automated hose for supplying sand to the locomotive's bunker, which will reduce the time required for filling it by at least 3 times, and, consequently, reduce the downtime of locomotives at the points where they are equipped with sand and while waiting for it. A calculation was made of the quality indicators of the use of an electric locomotive of the 3ES5K series on the Mariinsk – Krasnoyarsk section with the standard and proposed sand supply systems for locomotives, which showed that the proposed technical solution will reduce the time of a complete turnaround of the locomotive, the operating fleet, while increasing the average daily mileage of the locomotive, which leads to increased productivity locomotive by 6.6 %.
