EMS Industries

EMS Industries brings over 25 years of South African engineering and technology experience to the railway and industrial sectors, developing electronic and mechanical solutions for environments where reliability and clear information matter. As an ISO 9001-certified original equipment manufacturer, the company designs, develops and supports its own technologies, with products already used in markets including South Africa, Mozambique, Eswatini, India, Canada, Liberia and Sierra Leone.

Railway technology is at the heart of EMS Industries’ offering. The company specialises in train telemetry, communication and rail safety systems, including End of Train Devices
(EOTDs), Head of Train Devices (HOTDs), remote heads, repeaters, communication units and remote monitoring platforms. Its EOT technology monitors information such as brake-
line pressure and GPS location, while its HOTD provides the driver with real-time information about the train’s status and integrity.

EMS Industries also brings together the electronics behind these systems. Its Comprehensive Communication Unit connects locomotive systems using technologies such
as Ethernet, GPS, GSM, Wi-Fi, data radio and satellite, while its cloud-based Remote Monitoring Platform allows operators to track EOT devices and access information such as
location, speed and brake pressure remotely.

Beyond rail, EMS Industries works in power electronics, embedded engineering and mechanical engineering. Its industrial power portfolio includes AC-DC power supplies, DC-DC converters, distribution panels and battery monitoring systems used in railway, mining and communications environments. The company also provides product development, training, repairs, maintenance and after-sales support, keeping its expertise involved throughout the lifecycle of its technology.
