[Measurement System Example] Railway Vehicle Wheel Flat Detection

Detect rail anomalies and currency train names through vibrations! When there is a flat, the wheels detect a vibration that says "gotton" every time they make one full rotation and report it to the sensor.

The outer circumference of railway vehicle wheels is fitted with iron tires, but when emergency brakes are applied to the vehicle and the wheels stop rotating while sliding on the rails, part of the tire becomes flat due to friction. When there is a flat spot, a vibration known as "gotton" occurs with each rotation of the wheel, resulting in a very uncomfortable ride. The "Wheel Flat Detection" system detects this during the passage of the train and reports it to the center. 【Basic Configuration of the Product】 ■ EC2320: USB AD Converter ■ Computer: Windows 10 ■ Input Box: ELMEC manufactured ■ Vehicle Detection Sensor Input Circuit: 3 channels ■ Acceleration Sensor: 4 channels ■ Charge Amplifier: 4 channels ■ Flat Detection Software: Custom Software *For more details, please refer to the related link page or feel free to contact us.
