Cooperation with TÜBİTAK and Universities is maintained in order to increase our market share in the world railway market, to increase the domestic rate in manufacturing and to develop original projects. The original scope of the project and our ongoing major projects: Turkey's First National Electric Locomotives for the design and production of "E1000 Type Electric Locomotive Development" Project, with the support of TCDD is continued cooperation with TUBITAK and TULOMSAS. which for the first time in Turkey within the scope of indigenization and traction converters manufactured by a few companies in the world, Central Control Unit, Control Panel and Traction Control Unit 's design and manufacture has been completed. Another project of ours is the Light Weight Wagon Project. The tare of the currently used wagons is 24 tons on average.
With this project, the wagon tare will be reduced to 19,7 tons, and 4,3 tons per wagon and 12 tons more cargo per 51,6-wagon train will be able to be transported. With the support of TCDD, the Lightweight Freight Wagon design and prototype manufacturing project continues with the cooperation of TÜLOMSAŞ, ITU and TÜBİTAK within the scope of public projects. The project is a multi-purpose, new platform wagon design; It is one of the most demanded and needed wagon types by TCDD and logistics companies. Thanks to the production of the wagon, a product that can be transported under modern conditions in domestic service and competes in the international market will be developed and the country will be earned foreign currency.
Rail Systems Test Center, on the other hand, continues our activities for the R&D and test center, which is supported by TÜLOMSAŞ and is being established in Eskişehir. Studies on the applicability of the project
It was carried out by a team led by TÜLOMSAŞ. The Rail Systems Center of Excellence project, which is planned to be established by Anadolu University within the scope of this project, has been approved by the DPT. Turkey will be a single center.

Can you get information about your sectoral activities in domestic and international markets?
We export our products to countries such as the USA, Iraq, Iran, Thailand and France. The leading products we export are locomotives, locomotive spare parts, diesel engine, traction engine and parts. Our locomotives, which will be produced in cooperation with TÜLOMSAŞ-ROTEM in Electric Locomotive, will take its place in domestic and international markets as of 2013. It is aimed to produce 72 locomotives in three years. In Diesel Electric locomotive; The first locomotive produced in cooperation with TÜLOMSAŞ-GE will be put on the market in September at the International Railway Fair in Berlin. Initially, it is aimed to produce 50 locomotives per year as soon as possible, with a minimum of 100 locomotives per year.
The "Strategic Partnership Agreement" signed between TÜLOMSAŞ and GE for the joint production of new generation European platform locomotives was signed on 09.11.2012 and entered into force.
Customer wages are fully met on the Wagon. The annual production is planned to be produced as 1000 wagon. The existing industrial infrastructure in our country is very suitable for this manufacturing.
The freight wagons that the logistics companies need are met by our company since 2007. TULOMSAS meets the needs of various types (tarpaulin, container, sliding wall, ore, cistern, grain, etc.) freight wagon.
TÜLOMSAŞ manufactures traction motors for light rail vehicles. The production of traction motors for Marmaray vehicles is carried out at TÜLOMSAŞ. Within the scope of localization, the local production of traction motors for use in DE 33000 type locomotives for TCDD has started. 50 percent savings were achieved per product. Annual production is planned as one thousand units.
Wheel-axle kit assembly and Cer motorized bogie assembly of Marmaray vehicles are performed in TÜLOMSAŞ. The annual production is planned as 5000 pieces.
We meet the modernization and modification needs of the municipalities. 15 pieces tram modernization was carried out for Gaziantep Municipality.
