ROLLING STOCK HEALTH MONITORING
Maintenance and service is a key contributor to the total cost of train ownership. The total cost of maintaining rolling stock often exceeds original equipment purchase price. LORD MicroStrain® wireless sensing systems provide fleet operators with a quick and cost-effective path to embedding health sensing capabilities on both new and existing critical components for continuous, automated condition updates.
HIGH SPEED TRAIN WIRELESS SENSING
The ongoing maintenance and operation cost can approach $200,000 per mile of high-speed train track annually. LORD MicroStrain® wireless sensing systems provide fleet operators with a quick and cost-effective path to embedding health sensing capabilities
WIRELESS MONITORING OF RAIL SYSTEM TRACK GEOMETRY
Non-intrusive solutions to measure high-speed rail infrastructure conditions
Remote Monitoring – Case Study
Have you ever wondered if there is a vibration condition monitoring system that can be installed anywhere and then monitored from anywhere else? Even on your smartphone?
Detail
STRENGTH MEASUREMENT OF INVERTER MOTORS
Optical fiber strain gage is resistant to electrical noise and most suitable for the strength measurement of inverter motors.
ANEMOMETRICAL MEASUREMENT IN RUNNING TRAINS
KYOWA Memory Recorder/Analyzer EDX-5000A enables to measure wind pressure applied when high-speed trains enter tunnels and pass each other, by placing Pressure Transducers (PS) on the outside front of the train.
SAFETY EVALUATION OF VEHICLES AGAINST SIDE-WIND (MODEL EXPERIMENTS)
KYOWA Universal Recorder EDX-200A enables to perform model experiments of vehicles subjected to side winds, by using KYOWA Load Cell (LUR-A-100N, LMA-A-100N) , Accelerometer, and KYOWA Universal Recorder (EDX-200A).
RIDE QUALITY EVALUATION OF RAILWAY VEHICLES
KYOWA Memory Recorder/Analyzer EDX-5000A measures up to 80 channels/unit. Since the multiple EDX-5000A units enable synchronous operations, you are able to measure multi-channel on-site data (such as ride quality testings of vehicles) easily.
SUSPENSION PRESSURE CONTROL FOR TRANSVERSE VIBRATION
KYOWA Universal Recorder EDX-200A enables to measure suspension control pressure for transverse vibrations of trains (pressure to adjust air springs), by using KYOWA Pressure transducers (PGMC-A).
HEAT DETECTION SYSTEM
The heat detection system enables preventive maintenance of vehicle equipment and early detection of train fire hazard/axle box overheating.
AXLE LOAD MEASURING INSTRUMENT
Axle load measuring instrument prevent derailments by accurately measuring any imbalance in vehicle wheels.
WHEEL LOAD WEIGHING SYSTEM (SHEAR STRAIN GAGE METHOD)
The wheel load weighing system enables Improvement of riding comfort and safe operations by checking any unbalance of wheel loads.
The shear strain gage method ensures easy installation at low price.
※1：It is recommended to periodically inspect, calibrate or replace the strain gages.
WHEEL LOAD WEIGHING SYSTEM (DIRECT LOAD CELL METHOD)
The wheel load weighing system enables improvement of riding comfort and safe operations by checking any unbalance of wheel loads.
The direct load cell method ensures easy installation.
WHEEL LOAD WEIGHING SYSTEM (UNDER-RAIL LOAD CELL METHOD)
The wheel load weighing system enables Improvement of riding comfort and safe operations by checking any unbalance of wheel loads.
The under-rail load cell method features an independent weighing section, thereby ensuring highly accurate measurement.
STRESS ANALYSIS ON WELDED PORTIONS OF THE FRAME USING A NON-INDUCTIVE STRAIN GAGES
Non-inductive strain gage enables to measure stresses on the control panel and connected parts of the body with noise resistance.
COMFORT TESTING OF SEATS
AMA-A
- KYOWA Small 3-axle low-capacity transducer
- Highly responsive
- Solid and strong (An allowable overload of 1,000 times)
LOAD MEASUREMENT OF POINT-SWITCHING AT RAIL
KYOWA Compact Recorder CTRS-100 Series enables to measure the load applied to the rod at the time of point switching, by using a Load Cell (LUX-B-20KN) and a Compact Recorder (CTRS-100 Series).
VIBRATION MEASUREMENT OF WHEELED PLATFORMS
KYOWA Dynamic Strain Amplifiers DPM-950 series enables to detect rail abnormalities from signals sent from accelerometers affixed onto the top, bottom, left, and right sides of the wheeled platform and to obtain maintenance information.
Flat Wheel Detection System
This system can automatically detect abnormal wear on wheel treads, called “flat” on a wheel-by-wheel basis while the train is in motion, and consists of a detector and a data recorder. The detector consists of an accelerometer that detects the impact acceleration caused by “flat”, a wheel detector that detects the passing of a wheel, and an antenna that receives radio waves to identify the car number.
