China has successfully operated the world's first electromagnetic sleigh with a maglev speed of more than 1000 km / h.

CTOnews.com, October 19, according to a CCTV report, China has built and successfully operated the world's first electromagnetic propulsion ground ultra-high speed test facility, the "electromagnetic sleigh", which can accelerate objects of tons and above to a speed of 1030 km / h, which has also created the world's highest speed record for high-quality ultra-high-speed electromagnetic propulsion technology.

CCTV pointed out that the world's first electromagnetic sleigh facility, located in Jinan, Shandong Province, is a major project of strategic cooperation between the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Shandong Province and Jinan City.

According to reports, during the design and construction of electromagnetic sleigh facilities, the research team of the Institute of Electrical Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences broke through a series of key core technologies, and a number of technical indicators reached the world's leading level.

At present, electromagnetic sleigh facilities can provide testing and testing services to relevant domestic enterprises and research units, which is of great significance to support the sustained and rapid development of high-quality high-speed advanced equipment and high-speed scientific and technological research in our country.
