Torsion Test Stand - Nencki Wheel Weighing NWW
two birds with one stone: increased derailment safety - condition-based maintenance
High-precision measurements of the wheel load distribution through the simulation of realistic track torsions and irregularities. The inspection can be carried out after maintenance has been performed or also for prophylactic clarification of whether maintenance is necessary at all (Condition Based Maintenance). This can save costs for unnecessary maintenance work and minimize the downtime of the rolling stock.
Applications: Trams / Metro / Suburban Trains / Passenger Coaches / Trainsets with two Bogies (EMU / DMU)
- Measurement of wheel loads under simulation of curves and track irregularities
- Measurement of wheel loads of the entire rolling stock without prior disassembly of the bogies
- Maintenance only when needed! If the wheel loads are correct, systematic inspections can be omitted. The timing of any upcoming maintenance work can be predicted and planned based on the measurement data.
- Fully automatic testing and evaluation with test report
- User-friendly operation via touchscreen and clearly structured software
The system complies with the internationally recognized test standard EN-14363.
