Railmeasurement CAT-V Corrugation Analysis Trolley

RM CAT-V Corrugation Analysis Trolley

with integrated Vision system
Rail corrugation and acoustic roughness
measuring trolley for tracks and switches.
Suitable for vignola and grooved rails

Product description:

Rail surface irregularities of the order of microns (0.001mm) in amplitude are important in the generation of wheel/rail rolling noise and vibrations.
The CAT-V portable rail measuring trolleys are easy to carry and set up and are suitable for obtaining continuous longitudinal m easurements of irregularities on the rail surface and capturing high resolution images from the rail head

CAT-V

Applications:

  • Monitoring of rail quality
  • Detection of corrugation and acoustic roughness
  • Detection and classification of both short and long waves
  • Assessment of mobile rail treatment results e.g. rail grinding and milling
  • Visual assessment of rail condition

Main characteristics:

  • Measurements that are highly accurate and repeatable
  • Relatively simple installation and setup
  • Contact measurement system using inertial sensors
  • Suitable for any track gauge
  • User friendly software for acquisition and review of measurement data
  • Operation through notebook or tablet pc
  • Robust yet light weight design
  • Extensive product support
