Automated Systems for Wheel Sets Control

The systems are designed for making automatic measurement of geometric parameters of railway wheel sets in the course of incoming and outgoing inspections carried out in railcar/wheel shops, wagon depots.

Measurement of all parameters is performed by means of noncontact techniques during one revolution of a wheel pair fixed to rotate on centres.

Rolling surface contour and wheel dimensions are measured by using Series RF620 2D laser scanners.

Precision measurements of axle journal diameters are made by means of Series RF656 optical micrometers.

Other parameters are measured with Series RF603 triangulation laser sensors.
