We love the challenge of a customer’s problem. Why? It’s an opportunity for a true collaborative partnership. We enjoy the exchange of ideas, whether we’re developing a brand new technology or applying existing technologies in innovative new ways.

Sometimes, the resulting solution benefits not only the individual customer, but the entire rail industry as well. But proof is in performance, so we want to share actual case studies with you. These describe the initial challenge that the customer brought to GE and how—together—we arrived at the desired results.

These studies are chronicled on their own website that showcases the power of collaboration. Visit www.together.getransportation.com and take a global trek across some of GE’s most recent partnering with the world’s railroads. You’ll see we go to great lengths to help our customers succeed.

Building on more than a half-century of experience in drill motor design and manufacturing, GE offers the most cost-effective, highest performing AC motors in the industry today. Over the past 10 years, we have supplied thousands of AC traction motors for land and offshore drilling rigs worldwide, as well as locomotives and mining trucks.

Our AC motors for drilling feature heavy-duty frames, form-wound stator windings and high-strength rotor assemblies. Built to produce greater torque and speed than their DC counterparts, they maintain horsepower at a broader speed range, eliminating the need for costly gearboxes and introducing greater reliability.

From sweltering desert heat to hurricane-force winds, GE’s diesel engines provide reliable stationary power in the harshest environments. Available in 8-, 12- and 16-cylinder configurations, they also offer the highest fuel efficiency and lowest life-cycle costs in their class.

A design for 20-year life and extended maintenance intervals make these engines a cost-effective power generation solution for continuous prime, peaking and black start operations. Compared to high-speed diesels, our medium-speed engines are 25% cheaper to operate per kilowatt-hour. Gensets are available in enclosed and unenclosed configurations, providing power from 1.2 to 3 MW.
