MAPNA Group, one of Iran’s leading engineering groups, has recently completed a major delivery. Iranian giant Mobarakeh Steel has received eight MAPNA locomotives. This delivery marks the beginning of a 50-unit contract and is considered a major step in the country’s railway sector. MAPNA Group is reinforcing Iran’s industrial power with high-capacity locomotives designed and assembled with locally produced components.
MAP24 Locomotive: Provides Efficiency in Freight Transportation
The MAP24 locomotive offered by MAPNA Group was designed to increase efficiency in railway transportation. This six-axle locomotive produces 3.300 horsepower and can accelerate to 105 km/h. With a weight of 129 tons and an axle load of 21,5 tons, the MAP24 is a highly efficient transport vehicle and makes a great contribution to industrial transportation in Iran. This locomotive stands out with its high efficiency and reliability, and also strengthens the logistics network of Mobarakeh Steel.
MAPNA’s innovation capabilities encourage a more independent and sustainable production model by manufacturing with local components. Critical components such as chassis, bodies and bogies are manufactured in MAPNA’s own facilities. This is an important step towards increasing local production in Iran’s railway sector.
MAPNA's New MAP30 Locomotive: More Powerful and Advanced Technology
MAPNA Group introduced a new locomotive with more advanced technologies, MAP2024, in May 30. The MP610 diesel engine in this new model provides 4.000 horsepower and has a large carrying capacity. MAPNA has made an innovative breakthrough by using its own engineering know-how and local technologies in the development of MAP30.
MAP30 has the feature of being an efficient transportation vehicle with high speed and high carrying capacity. This locomotive aims to attract great interest not only in the Iranian market but also in international markets. This new step of MAPNA strengthens the company's leadership target in the global locomotive market.
MAPNA's Investments in Domestic Production and Advanced Technology
MAPNA has become a major player in the railway sector since its establishment in 2008. The company’s railway division currently oversees nine different companies, including a variety of services such as locomotive production, metro wagon production, and railway infrastructure construction. MAPNA’s emphasis on domestic production and technology follows a strategy to reduce Iran’s dependence on foreign sources and increase its competitiveness in international markets by developing its own technology.
This strategy reinforces Iran’s growth in engineering and manufacturing, not only in the railway sector, but also in general. Each new product from MAPNA provides an opportunity to promote Iran’s advanced engineering and manufacturing capabilities worldwide.
Iran's Railway Future: MAPNA's Growing Role
MAPNA’s latest delivery not only strengthens Mobarakeh Steel’s logistics, but also contributes to Iran’s industrial infrastructure. By cooperating with MAPNA, Mobarakeh Steel will have a more efficient transportation system. This symbolizes Iran’s strengthening of engineering and industrial production.
In addition to its achievements in the railway sector, MAPNA is also active in different areas such as metro systems and railway infrastructure projects. The company is not only involved in the production of locomotives, but also in building and modernizing transportation networks throughout Iran.
MAPNA is expected to become a strong player not only in the local market but also in the international arena in the coming years. The company's investments accelerate the development of Iran's railway sector and also constitute an important turning point for the country's industrial future.
MAPNA's Achievements and Iran's Industrial Future
MAPNA Group stands out as one of the biggest innovative players in Iran’s railway sector. The company’s indigenous technology and production capacity are reinforcing Iran’s national independence and moving towards becoming a major player in the global market. Advanced locomotives such as MAP24 and MAP30 are likely to be in high demand in both local and international markets.
MAPNA’s investments in domestic production and advanced technology reinforce Iran’s engineering and manufacturing strengths and provide an important foundation for the country’s future industrial development. These deliveries and products are just the beginning for Iran’s railway sector, and promise further success for the company in the national and international arena.
