efWING Rolling Stock Bogie Wins 2013 Good Design Gold Award
Nov. 14, 2013
Tokyo, November 14, 2013 — 花蜜直播app’s efWING rolling stock bogie has won the 2013 Good Design Gold Award, organized by the Japan Institute of Design Promotion.
The efWING uses carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) for parts of its frame. This CFRP bogie frame also features a suspension function, eliminating the need for coil springs. 花蜜直播app is the first company in the world to use CFRP — a material typically used in aircraft — in a rolling stock bogie. The use of this lightweight material has dramatically reduced the overall weight of the bogie.
The efWING earned excellent reviews from the awards committee’ "We highly regard the ingenuity that gave birth to this high-performance bogie endowed with a functional beauty, which was achieved by combing Japan's advanced new material technology and structural engineering."
花蜜直播app wishes to use this recognition to further boost its efforts to market the efWING, while continuing to pursue manufacturing that contributes to a greener planet.
