The right distribution of the vertical forces on each wheel is a key-factor to ensure the dynamic stability of any rolling stock and avoid abnormal wear in wheel/rail interaction. Unloaded wheels, especially on the diagonal side of a bogie, can significantly decrease the capacity of the bogie to safely run on twisted tracks, increasing derailment risk. Abnormal wheel wear and/or faulty suspensions can lead to unloaded wheels, even during the interval between two successive extraordinary maintenance cycles of bogies. More and more frequently the maintenance technician feels the need to check the distribution of the vertical forces on each wheel.
It is usually needed a high performance fixed weighing system, capable of performing measurements with huge precision and accuracy, directly at the wheel/rail interface and in stable equilibrium conditions during the process. Unfortunately the right fixed system is not always easy to find nearby. Furthermore moving a rolling stock vehicle to a fixed weighing system, often located far away, can be expensive too. As a result, increasing the monitoring frequency of static vertical forces on each wheel, is an expensive and challenging achievement.
POWERVE® is the most innovative static wheel force measuring system from our strategic partner IVM. The impressive performances that the system has achieved are comparable to high-accuracy fixed weighing systems but it is an easy and hand-portable one. POWERVE® can increase the frequency of monitoring in a sustainable way, allowing you to enable maintenance approaches, no longer periodic, but oncondition and predictive. Finally a quick and easy equipment, anytime & everywhere.
