Devices for measuring geometrical parameters of rolling stock
wheel
sets
Application domain
The
devices are intended for measuring diameter of wheel rolling circle,
geometric parameters of wheel flanges, tire thickness and for
taking roll surface wear profile of wheel
sets of railway, tube and
tram vehicles.
Wheel diameter measuring gauge, IDK Series
Electronic gauge is designed for measuring wheel rolling circle diameter.
Measurements are made directly on rolling stock without wheel set roll-out.
The measurement of the diameter is performed according to the "three points" technique,
without the complete wheel coverage. The gauge contains numeric display to show the value of the wheel diameter.
IDK-BT gauge contains Bluetooth interface for transfer results into
wheel-set wear database management system
Laser wheel profilometer,
IKP-5
The laser profilometer is employed for measuring geometrical
parameters of the wheel flange (thickness, slope, height), tire
thickness and for taking full profile of the wheel roll surface.
An RF603
laser module placed inside the profilometer casing performs
linear
scanning of the wheel surface being driven by a
mini-stepper. An sensor placed inside the grip makes
it possible to measure the tire thickness. The mobile computer
connected to the profilometer performs conversion co-ordinates with respect to the wheel,
calculation, display and storage of parameters and profiles (up to
1000
in number)
for subsequent transmission to a wheel-set wear database management
system.
Back-to-back distance
measurement gauge, IMR
Electronic gauge is designed for measuring back-to-back
distance of railway, metro and tram wheels in the course of checkup,
examination, repair and formation of wheel sets. Measurements are
made directly on rolling stock without wheel set roll-out.
The method of measurement is based on direct measurement the
distance by contact linear encoderRF25X Series
-manual and automatic (using IKP series devices) entry of data about
wheel sets wear level for the locomotive fleet of a depot;
-automatic control of the wear in excess of the permissible level;
-maintenance of inspection reports and wear records log;
-automatic formation of reports on the intensity of wheel sets wear;
-general analysis of the wheel sets condition;
-projection of the date the limiting wear is reached;
-automatic analysis and optimisation of end re-rolling operations taking
the wheel sets reserve into account;
-in-process examination of wheel sets profile changes as compared to any
normal profile (using a IKP laser profile-meter);
-automatic formation of any records and reports.
