Use Cases

• Detect wheelset and wheel running faults early: Identify flat spots, out-of-roundness or other conspicuous vibration patterns.
• Analyze wheel-rail loads: Recognize when and where high forces or unusual loads occur.
• Monitor ride comfort: Measure shocks and vibrations from the passengers’ point of view and find problematic vehicles or track sections.
• Separate vehicle and track influences: Link measurements with route, speed and operating state to narrow down the cause of conspicuous behavior.
• Record shunting and coupling impacts: Document strong impacts, for example to protect vehicles and cargo or to clarify damage.
• Fleet benchmarking: Compare vehicles of the same type in real operation and identify outliers.
• Track components over their lifetime: Compare condition development before and after overhauls or component replacement.
• Validate new components and prototypes: For example, test different wheelsets, bogies or dampers under comparable operating conditions.
• Refine maintenance intervals: Plan maintenance based on the load and condition development actually measured.
• Remote diagnostics and secure remote maintenance: Control access to vehicle systems and make technical interventions traceable.
