Frauscher to Deliver First Project in South Korea: Partnership for the Daejeon Tram Project

Frauscher recently announced its first project in South Korea. MTECHIN, Frauscher’s trusted local partner, has received an order from Hyundai Rotem to supply Frauscher’s proven track vacancy detection technology for the pioneering Daejeon Tram Project.

Strategic partnership sealed in Seoul

On 2 September 2025, representatives from Hyundai Rotem, MtechIN, and Frauscher met in Seoul to sign a memorandum of understanding (MoU), establishing a strong framework for future cooperation.

“We are looking forward to a fruitful collaboration and are convinced that this will be the start of a shared future for our companies. Frauscher’s FAdC Axle Counter and FSE Software Protocol are a perfect combination to simplify integration of new installations, but also to extend the system later on,” said Mayank Tripathi, CSO Frauscher Sensor Technology.

Pioneering sustainable mobility in South Korea

The Daejeon Tram Project will deliver South Korea’s first hydrogen-powered trams, designed and built by Hyundai Rotem. The circular light rail line will stretch 38.8 km and feature 45 stops, significantly enhancing urban mobility in Daejeon. Hyundai Rotem will provide its in-house signalling system, including the innovative S-DATP on-board solution.

Frauscher technology at the core

Frauscher’s globally proven Frauscher Advanced Counter FAdC® will be deployed in combination with the Frauscher Wheel Sensor RSR180, a sensor renowned for its robustness, precision, and reliability in railway markets worldwide, including India and the Americas.

A major highlight of the project is the first integration of the Frauscher Safe Ethernet (FSE) interface with Hyundai Rotem’s interlocking system, ensuring seamless communication and efficient system implementation.

Outlook

The Daejeon Tram is scheduled to commence operations in 2028. For Frauscher, contributing to this milestone project represents not only an important step into the South Korean market but also a strong foundation for future cooperation in advancing sustainable mobility solutions worldwide.
