The automation solution will be designed, manufactured and set up based on the SCADA software. The contract terms involve HollySys for the performance demonstration and also the maintenance of the rail link that connects the West Kowloon terminal and Mai Po terminal. The rail link spans 26 km in length and runs across Mainland China. MCS is essentially an automation system, which takes care of the supervision and control of the urban rail link. By automating the rail link, it is possible to ensure unified management and control of the individual sub-systems that work on different technologies. The CEO of HollySys pointed out the track record that they have set for themselves in the automation of rail and other industrial segments.
