Real time wheels geometry measurement system
22 August 2019
RIFTEK: The system is designed for contactless automatic measurement of geometrical parameters of railway wheels and uses a combination of 2D laser scanners, mounted wayside in the track area.
The system can be easily installed at any type of rail infrastructure.
Measured parameters:
- Wheel profiles
- Flange height
- Flange width
- Flange angle
- Rim thickness
- Tread width
- Back to back distance
- Wheel diameter
