This system has all the characteristics of railFOM-IMPACT, adding the following features:
Derailment Probability Prediction:
railFOM-ULTIMATE can measure the lateral forces the train produces when negotiating a curve, and in combination with the vertical force signal, calculates the Y/Q factor, indicating the derailment probability.
In addition, and thanks to its high-accuracy time measurement, this system can calculate the attack angle of each axle over the measurement point, obtaining an additional indicator of the derailment probability.
ADVANTAGES
The advantages railFOM provides, comparing with other systems, are the following:
- Short installation time, with no need to cut or lift the track for installation.
- Nearly no maintenance, excepting unusual circumstances.
- In case a repair or part replacement is needed, easy maintenance and repair, by non-expert staff.
- Easy data display. Warnings in case any train doesn't comply with the user requirements. Force peak and unbalancing alarms.
- Very high quality signals. Currently no other system can provide the signal cleanliness nor the time accuracy provided by railFOM.
- Low cost. Easy installation and maintenance at a low price.
- Detection of all kind of wheel defects. With a great accuracy and relying on an alarm system that warns the user about the different problems related to those defects.
- The Only System of this type, able to predict the derailment probability.
