BTM (Belt Type Transit System by Magnet) has timing belts at whose surface permanent magnet devices are fitted. It uses magnetic attraction-force to steel beam for driving force. As this force is more powerful than adhesion force between wheel and rail, it is possible that BTM runs at steep slope like 30 degrees. This paper describes design policy and experiment results of BTM, concerning structure of belt, method of driving, brake system and automatic operation.
