DYNAMIC RAILWAY DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
The Dynamic Railway Diagnostic system is a highly integrated wayside digital sensor network, with high resolution recording of the dynamic load response of each wheel of the passing train.
Detection, trend-monitoring and alarm of
- improper loading of axles, bogies- and railcars (overloading and all kinds of asymmetrical-loadings)
- axle rupture
- bogie suspension defect
- wheel geometry defects (oval, eccentric, flat or polygonal wheels)
Benefits
- increased safety
- detection and alarm on derailment-hazardous (dangerous) dynamic load conditions of the passing trains
- operating cost reduction
- detection, trend-monitoring and alarm on railcar-, and infrastructure-damaging conditions of the passing train that results in:
- the preservation and lifetime extension of both the infrastructure and the rolling stocks by reduced and controlled wear and tear
- decreased maintenance costs by predictive maintenance based on the provided trend-data
- detection, trend-monitoring and alarm on railcar-, and infrastructure-damaging conditions of the passing train that results in:
- environmental protection
- controlled noise-, and vibration-emission using defective wheel detection and trend-monitoring
