ABOUT

Magway approached us to design the vehicle that will travel along their revolutionary transport system. The engineer behind the project is a world expert who worked on Hyperloop to programmed the high voltage linear motors.

This project is similar in that it uses the same linear motor propulsion, but without the costs or complications.

Designed to transport goods only at up to 30mph along modified 0.9m tubes originally designed to carry water, Magway will connect distribution centres to take up to 90% of good lorries off the road, saving CO2, air pollution, road degradation and lives. The system can be built at 200m a day at a cost of £1m per kilometre.

We designed the Module to move cool air over the linear motors to keep the magnets optimised using EPP and moulded panels - the same technology as a bike helmet. This serves to protect the goods carried inside and insulate them from changing temperatures.

A 12m demonstrator is currently being built in Wembley and will be used to field the next round of investment and press enquiries.
