About TRAC Engineering
TRAC Engineering, a strategic joint venture between Toshi and CECO, designs, manufactures, installs, commissions, and maintains high-quality Platform Screen Door (PSD) systems for metro and rail networks in Gandhinagar.
Unlike other PSD suppliers, our in-house production reduces dependency on imports, ensures faster delivery and on-ground support, and enables better cost control for transit authorities.
Engineered for Urban Transit
Every feature of our PSD system is engineered to deliver maximum safety, efficiency and reliability for rapidly growing metro and rail networks in Gandhinagar.
Passenger Safety
Prevents accidental or unauthorized access onto tracks. Obstacle detection sensors and emergency override features ensure continuous safety across every metro platform.
Operational Efficiency
Reduces delays caused by safety incidents, optimizes dwell time, and synchronizes seamlessly with train door systems for precise, reliable operation at every station.
Energy Savings
Full-height PSDs help minimize air loss in underground metro stations. This significantly reduces HVAC load - resulting in measurable energy savings for transit authorities.
Optimized Staffing
Reduces dependency on platform staff through automated door control and real-time monitoring - lowering operating costs for transit operators.
Remote Diagnostics
Advanced monitoring system provides real-time fault alerts and remote diagnostics, enabling faster maintenance response and maximum uptime across every deployment.
Made in Gandhinagar
Over 75% indigenous components qualifying TRAC as a Class-I Local Supplier (Public Procurement Order, 2017) - eligible for purchase preference in central, state & PSU tenders, and supporting high-skill engineering employment locally.

PSD Operation in 5 Steps
From train arrival to passenger boarding
This is how TRAC's PSD system manages every step automatically at metro stations in Gandhinagar.
Train Approaches
Station system receives train arrival signal from the ATC/signaling system.
PSD Unlocks
PSDs unlock and align with train doors ready for synchronized opening.
Doors Open
Train and platform doors open simultaneously - safe, controlled passenger flow.
Obstacle Check
Sensors confirm no obstruction before doors close - safety always first.
Doors Close
PSDs lock securely - train departs safely and platform is fully secured.
Why PSD Systems Matter
Transit authorities and commuters in Gandhinagar gain measurably from a well-installed Platform Screen Door system.
Accident Prevention
Eliminates the risk of passengers falling or being pushed onto metro tracks - creating a fully secure platform environment 24/7.
Climate & Air Quality Control
TRAC's full-height PSD system keeps platform air separate from tunnel air - allowing underground stations to maintain comfortable temperatures and reduce HVAC costs.
Reduced Delays
Synchronized PSD-train door operation minimizes dwell time at every station, improving overall network punctuality.
Reduced Trespassing
Physical barriers prevent unauthorized track access, improving safety and reducing liability for operators.
Lower Maintenance Costs
PSDs limit dust and debris flow onto tracks - reducing cleaning frequency, equipment wear, and overall maintenance expenses.
Scalable Across Network
TRAC's PSD systems can be expanded to new lines and stations across Gandhinagar without overhauling existing infrastructure or signaling systems.

Get in TouchFrequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our Platform Screen Door systems, installation process, safety features, train compatibility, and after-sales support services for metro and rail projects in Gandhinagar.
What are Platform Screen Doors (PSDs) and why are they important?
Platform Screen Doors are automated barriers installed between the station platform and the train. They prevent passengers from accidentally falling onto tracks, block unauthorized access, reduce noise, improve air conditioning efficiency in underground stations, and significantly enhance overall passenger safety.
Are TRAC's PSD systems compatible with all train types?
Yes. TRAC Engineering customizes each PSD system to ensure seamless integration with various train models, ATC/ATP signaling systems, and platform dimensions - making our PSDs compatible with any metro or rail network without disrupting existing infrastructure.
What is the difference between Full Height and Half Height PSD?
Full Height PSDs (up to 2400mm) extend from floor to ceiling and provide complete platform-to-track separation - best suited for underground stations requiring climate control and maximum safety. Half Height PSDs (up to 1400mm) are ideal for elevated or open-air platforms where full enclosure is not needed, offering cost-effective safety.
How long does it take to install a complete PSD system?
Installation timelines depend on platform size and complexity. On average, TRAC Engineering completes full PSD deployment within 4 to 8 weeks per station - including system integration, commissioning, safety testing, and operational handover.
What safety features are included in TRAC's PSD systems?
TRAC's PSD systems include infrared obstacle detection sensors, emergency manual override, interlocking mechanisms synchronized with train doors, and power backup for uninterrupted operation - ensuring continuous passenger safety across every metro platform at all times.
Can PSDs help reduce station maintenance and operating costs?
Yes. TRAC's PSD systems limit dust, debris, and air flow onto the trackbed - reducing cleaning frequency, minimizing equipment wear, lowering HVAC energy consumption, and decreasing overall maintenance expenses for transit authorities.
Does TRAC offer after-sales support and maintenance for PSD systems?
Absolutely. TRAC provides comprehensive Annual Maintenance Contracts (AMC), 24/7 remote monitoring, preventive maintenance schedules, software updates, and on-site servicing - ensuring maximum PSD uptime across every deployment throughout the system's lifetime.
