Track geometry and wear system

Track geometry and wear system

CONTACT US

The acquisition system integrates an inertial unit (n°6 degrees of freedom) and two optical boxes with laser triangulation technology. Thanks to an integrated odometry system, each measurement of the track geometry is acquired at a spatial frequency of 200 mm. Geolocation data is guaranteed by a high precision GNSS module, integrated into the inertial unit hardware.

Measured parameters

  • Track Gauge
  • Cant
  • Twist (base selected)
  • Curvature
  • Alignment and Longitudinal Level R/L (inertial method, wavelengths: D0, D1, D2, D3)
  • Rail Horizontal, Vertical and 45° Wear

 

Main Features

  • Accuracy for all Measured Parameters in compliance with EN 13848;
  • Max acquisition speed (in most operating conditions): up to 140 km/h
