Blast Machine

Cerajet has been utilized in the 500/700/N700 series (Nozomi) on the Tokaido/Sanyo Shinkansen,

in the JR Kyushu Shinkansen, and in the Taiwan Shinkansen.

Cerajet consists of the injection tank in which the mixture of adhesion improving material and

compressed air is produced, the injection tube and nozzle.

It is the device that can improve the adhesion states by injecting a small quantity of the ceramic

particles accurately and efficiency at high speed between the wheel and rail.

This is the most reliable way to supply adhesion improving material which are harder than the

steel of the wheel and rail to the point of contact between them.

1. Slip prevention

Prevents wheel slippage due to rain, snow, leaves and insects, all of which are typical

in slopped terrains.

2. Slip prevention

Prevents slinding and shortens the braking distance for vehicles which do not have

a slide-detecting device installed.

3. Tread wear prevention

Prevents the wheel tread from wearing down flat as a result of skidding. Skidding occurs

when the wheel continues to move forward even though rotation is stopped by braking.

4. Consistent braking distance

Safety during emergencies is further improved by achieving the same braking distance

regardless of weather conditions.

Cerajet has been utilized in the 500/700/N700 series (Nozomi) on the Tokaido/Sanyo Shinkansen,

in the JR Kyushu Shinkansen, in the Taiwan Shinkansen, in the JR native line, in private railways,

and in locomotives of freight trains.

With Cerajet installed, the STAR21 recorded a maximum speed of 425 km/h

during high-speed trial operation at 0:01 on December 21, 1994.

STAR21 = Superior Train for Advanced Railway toward the 21st century
