Ultrasonic Track Measurement and Analysis
Pandrol’s technology-driven solutions collect data during operation, so track operators can identify potential maintenance issues in real time before problems occur. Track maintenance no longer needs to be the cause of costly and inconvenient downtime.
With the help of predictive rail maintenance products and systems from ultrasonic testing to overhead line gauging, you can maintain your track system’s integrity and performance with minimal disruption.
Why Is Rail Maintenance Important?
Rail maintenance is an essential part of running an effective and efficient rail system, and track measurement and analysis are vital to keeping trains running smoothly.
Pressures on global and local rail networks are increasing every year due to rising populations. Whether transporting passengers or cargo, your rail system must adhere to strict track and train maintenance regulations. High performance and safety become even more crucial under higher loads and increased traffic.
However, modern railways also face higher risks of track degradation due to:
- Harsher environments caused by more extreme weather conditions
- Heavier axles and vehicles
- Increases in speed driven by the push for high-speed rail networks
- Integration and development of metro systems within an urban environment
