MINNEAPOLIS, MN and LONDON, ON — ZTR Control Systems, a leader in intelligent equipment management solutions, will soon be launching a new office in Berlin, Germany, a major logistics hub for Europe. The ZTR Rail Division provides innovative locomotive modernization solutions that improve locomotive performance, reliability and efficiency. With the establishment of this new location, ZTR will be better positioned to meet continuously increasing demand from the European rail freight industry.
ZTR is supporting the European rail freight industry, by delivering innovative solutions for emissions reductions, fuel savings and tractive effort improvements. In the past year alone, ZTR has seen significant demand for these solutions in Europe and the UK, as freight operators are looking to modernize their fleets to reduce idle time, and improve locomotive reliability and availability, at a fraction of the cost of purchasing new.
“In Europe, ZTR products, including SmartStart® and NEXSYS™ III-i provide significant value to customers by increasing their locomotive’s dispatchable adhesion, saving fuel, cutting CO2 emissions, and improving starting reliability. This ultimately adds significant life extension to locomotives,” stated Matthew Scott, General Manager of the ZTR Rail Division. “Our innovative solutions have made ZTR a key partner for European operators looking to improve locomotive reliability and generate environmental benefits for their fleets,” continued Scott.
The new European office in Berlin, Germany will meet the challenges of the European market and will better support ZTR customers in this region. As part of this expansion, ZTR is looking to hire a locomotive Technical Services Engineer for the new location immediately.
