The Hyperloop cargo system can reach speeds of over 1,200 km/h.

In the US, the Hyperloop Express Freight system can transport goods automatically at speeds of 1,223 km/h and load and unload simultaneously.

Hyperloop Transportation Technologies (HyperloopTT) aims to develop a high-speed, virtually frictionless train system that could revolutionize passenger and cargo transportation. The company's latest system, called Express Freight, uses a combination of vacuum tubes, suspended train chambers, conveyor belts, and fully automated electric doors to load and unload cargo simultaneously before departure. HyperloopTT says the system promises faster, more cost-effective, and more sustainable transportation than air or truck freight, New Atlas reported on November 23.

The Express Freight system was developed following a 2019 feasibility study in the Great Lakes region, which determined that a Hyperloop rail freight system would be more cost-effective than air and road transport. HyperloopTT collaborated with the British design firm Tangerine to develop the freight system with four basic objectives: integrating existing infrastructure, maximizing cargo throughput, enabling the fastest possible loading times, and ensuring sufficient flexibility to meet diverse customer needs.

The Express system carries multiple small air cargo containers through a side door of the loading and unloading bay. The Express cargo bay travels through the Hyperloop vacuum tube. Upon arrival at the terminal, it relies on an automated conveyor system for loading and unloading to simultaneously drop containers inside the bay and load external containers. The conveyor runs parallel to the tube, using a roller system to move cargo perpendicularly into and out of the bay. HyperloopTT and Tangerine lower the bay door to maximize volume and accommodate standard air cargo containers. A recessed door between the structural pillars further increases interior space.

"Hyperloop Express Freight will fundamentally change how goods are transported globally," predicts Andrés de León, CEO of HyperloopTT. "Through the integration of key innovations such as automated high-speed loading, maximized cargo capacity, and flexible configuration, we are developing an optimized Hyperloop track design to transport goods at unprecedented speeds at a lower cost than air and road transport. This new standard will provide greater efficiency, sustainability, and flexibility in global supply chains."

HyperloopTT's plan is to integrate the Express Freight system within its passenger infrastructure. The passenger system relies on aircraft-shaped capsule-like compartments that travel at 1,223 km/h via a magnetic levitation system operating inside a low-pressure vacuum tube. Passengers will board and disembark with the assistance of automated doors mounted on the capsule to avoid affecting the pressure.
