The Absolute Track Geometry System is an economic solution that provides reliable, precise and accurate absolute geometry data transfer from surveying systems to the tamper control system.
also in Measurement / Inspection
The system provides railways requiring precise location of the track, a mechanism for integrating surveying systems to the tamper for automated operation. Once the operator imports the formatted geometry data, the software then instructs the tamper utilizing the closely mounted projector buggy (Zero Buggy Kit) and the imported geometry data to make needed track adjustments.
Providing the ability to transfer absolute geometry data directly from surveying systems to the tamper control system eliminates any manual entry error and enables the tamper to perform the required surface changes to the track, to meet the project design requirements. This is the ideal tool for new track and track renewal projects, as well as surfacing in areas with fixed objects such as bridges, tunnels and platforms. Contractors utilizing this system have reported time savings of up to 50% compared to the traditional methods.
Features:
- Enables tamper operation in combination with pre-measurement system
- Software pre-plans each required tamping pass
- Zero Buggy Kit brings the projector buggy close to the tamper
- Allows for accurate absolute track geometry adjustments
Benefits:
- Eliminates manual data entry
- Improves data accuracy
- Automate tamping to absolute track position
- Reduction in up to 50% of the time required to complete the project.
