Summary

The Italian company, working in the railway sector, developed a new system for the acquisition of the geometry and wear of the overhead line. The goal of the tool is the reduction of the constraints of rail operation and ensure greater availability and regularity of the railway infrastructure. They are seeking for a technical cooperation agreement.

Description

The company, located in Southern Italy, is endorsed by more than 30 years of experience in design and production of railway signalling system and electrical traction.

Moreover in the last 25 years it was employing excellent human resources and technologically advanced equipments for railway diagnostic systems, obtaining flattering results as in FS (Italian State Railways) and also in private railways area. More details of all products are given in the initiation process of a possible collaboration.

The company developed several diagnostic systems, in order to support and improve the safety and quality of the rail measurement. Infact in the electric traction, the correct geometric arrangement of the catenary guarantees a quality of current collection and avoids the occurrence of impacts or detachments to the pantograph, which can determine its breakdown and strong repercussions on rail traffic.

In addition, monitoring the wear degree of the conductors, as well as avoiding sudden drops of the catenary, allows to plan the replacement in order to improve maintenance of the infrastructure. This means costs and time saving .

The last tool developed is a system for the acquisition of the geometry and wear of the overhead line, that allows to:
• guarantee a correct geometric arrangement
• improve the quality of current collection
• reduce the constraints of rail operation
• improve the maintenance and ensure greater availability and regularity of the railway infrastructure.

The key feature that distinguishes our system from the main competitors is that our technology is unmanned, the system monitors the parameters in an automated and remote way without the engagement of maintenance staff as for the state of the art of the competitors.

The company is looking for partners interested in a technical cooperation agreement. The partner should test a pilot system that could be further customized or developed jointly.

Advantages & innovations

The last system for the acquisition of the geometry and wear of the overhead line show the an improvement in the geometrical arrangement, of the qualtity of the collection, a reduction fo the constraints of rail operation and an improvement on maintenance of the infrastructure. Furthermore the system aims to innovate the electric traction and the correct geometric arrangement, measuring the following parameters: - Absolute and relative height - Slope of the contact line - Absolute and relative stagger - Wear of the contact line

Stage of development
