Wheel Diameter Measuring Gauge

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

The measurement of the diameter is performed according to the “three points” technique, without the complete wheel coverage.

The measurement method is based on the diameter calculation by the known length of the segment chord (the distance between the ball bearings centers), which is obtained at placing the gauge onto the wheel. The suggita of the segment is measured by means of the displacement converter.
