The future of ultra-high-speed transportation is here. With the installation of the final girder, Phase 1 of China’s revolutionary High-speed Flying Train (Low Vacuum Tube Maglev) test line – spanning 2 kilometers – is now structurally complete. Designed for 1,000 km/h speeds (faster than commercial aircraft), this system redefines rapid transit through low-vacuum environments, delivering unprecedented velocity, convenience, comfort, and safety.
HCR’s Engineering Contribution:
As critical partners in this milestone project, we deployed our 500T Straddle Carrier and expert operating team for all girder erection operations. Through 6 months of precision execution, our equipment’s zero-failure performance and crew’s technical proficiency ensured seamless completion of the elevated guideway – directly enabling the next phase of speed trials.
Project Impact:
▶ Transport Revolution: World’s first operational 1,000 km/h ground vehicle test infrastructure
▶ Engineering Precision: 2km vacuum tube guideway with millimeter-level alignment tolerances
▶ Industry Benchmark: 6-month girder erection phase completed ahead of schedule
What This Means:
HCR’s heavy-lift solutions continue to enable frontier transportation projects. Our straddle carriers don’t just move girders – they lay the foundation for humanity’s fastest journeys.
