The track measuring and inspection system is a contactless equipment that measures the geometrical parameters of tracks and detect the profile and the wear of tracks.
TRACKS MEASURED PARAMETERS
The system measures the following parameters of tracks:
gauge
alignment (horizontal left – horizontal right - vertical left – vertical right)
rolling angle
grooved width
grooved height
tracks profile wear (horizontal, vertical and 45°)
cross level
curvature radius
rail profile
rail corrugation
twist / cant gradient
longitudinal elevation
GPS position along the line
kilometric chainage
Moreover, the system can provide:
accelerometers on the wheels
video of tracks
video of panorama
TRACKS PROFILE & PARAMETERS ANALYSIS SOFTWARE
The data analysis software has the following features:
All data are synchronized together
All data are graphically and numerically shown
Example of the data analysis software for the tracks diagnostics. Data are correlated to the kilometric position along the line, the GPS position and the videos (panoramic videos and tracks video).
