Rail-Bound Ultrasonic Rail Flaw Detection System
Real-time assessment of rail flaws.
The Rail-Bound Flaw Inspection System is designed for installation on a customer-supplied rail-bound vehicle for ultrasonic testing of rail at a maximum of 60 km/h (under optimal rail conditions). The system inspects both rails simultaneously and can locate defects through GPS coordinates or chainage measurements for transit customers.
Digital signal processing
The Rail-Bound Flaw Inspection System also features 24-, 32-, or 48-channel digital signal processing (depending on customer needs), allowing real-time sequential data processing, improved signal-to-noise ratios, and higher testing speeds with fewer false positive test results.
Key Features:
- Continuous, non-stop testing at speeds up to 45 mph (60 km/h) under optimal rail conditions
- Integration with other track inspection systems to provide maximim defect detection and management
- Patented enhanced pattern recognition and defect classification
- GPS tagging of car movement and defect location, to the thousandth of a mile
