Case Study
Case Study: Track Geometry Measurement
MoniRail’s modular solution enables a cost-effective way of measuring a range of track geometry parameters, comparable to measurements taken by dedicated track recording vehicles. The system has been proven against Network Rails measurement trains.
Track Geometry Measurement Sensor:
- The system does not measure Track Gauge.
Axlebox Sensor System:
- Provides a wider range of track measurements.
Project Aims
In combination, the full system can regularly collect important track data to enable a better
understanding of the track asset while enabling transitions to condition based maintenance.
Systems can be:
- Quickly and easily retrofitted to existing rolling stock or fitted to new rolling stock.
- Fitted within normal maintenance routines.
- Freight vehicles can also be used.
- Data is communicated wirelessly.
- Data is collected continuously.
Using the system on a daily basis enables track engineers to quickly identify problems being caused by weather extremes:
- Detection of washing out caused by excessive rainfall.
- Track problems caused by excess heat.
