China’s smart manufacturing sails West Africa, buses out to sea to break the waves. Recently, 250 Zhongtong buses were exported to Burkina Faso and the dispatching ceremony was held in Liaocheng, Shandong Province. This batch of cohesive China-Africa friendship buses will soon cross the Sahara and be put into the operation of public transport system in Ouagadougou, the capital of Burkina Faso.
Burkina Faso is located in the interior of West Africa and has become an important transport transit centre in the region by virtue of its advantageous geographical location. As urbanisation accelerates and the population grows, Burkina Faso’s need for modern intelligent transport is becoming increasingly urgent. The government has actively planned and invested in improving the transport infrastructure and upgrading the efficiency and service quality of public transport to ease traffic congestion, reduce environmental pollution and promote economic development.
It is reported that the 250 vehicles delivered this time are all based on the mature N-series bus platform of Zhongtong Bus, with reliable products and optimised performance, which have been verified by the market for many years. In order to fully assist the construction of public transport in Burkina Faso, the technical team of Zhongtong Bus has carried out in-depth customised development for this batch of vehicles, and all of them are equipped with front and rear domain controllers of Senptec Electronics.
According to the characteristics of local road conditions, the vehicle’s passability, power and economy are improved through system matching and control strategy optimisation. After the vehicles are put into operation, they will further enhance the intelligent level of local public transport, realise the digital management of vehicles, and provide local residents with more convenient, efficient and comfortable travel services.
The front and rear domain controllers of Senptec Electronics, with its innovative technology, realises the optimisation and upgrading of the electrical system of the whole vehicle. It upgrades the traditional decentralised electrical architecture into a domain architecture, integrates low-voltage power distribution and control functions, replaces traditional fuses and relays with digital means and power chips, which can efficiently carry out fault early warning and control, effectively improve system stability and safety, and reduce the risk of circuit fire. In terms of system design, it combines multiple power supply modes, simplifies the wiring harness circuit, reduces the cost and weight of the wiring harness system, and contributes to the lightweighting of vehicles. At the same time, the domain controller also supports platform design, bringing higher flexibility and expandability to the whole vehicle electrical system.
