Nearline-PM for Railways: Streamlining Track Monitoring
Wireless Network Vibration Sensor System "Nearline-PM" [Enables proactive measures before failures by predicting equipment anomalies]
Early detection of track anomalies with wireless vibration sensors. Reducing maintenance costs.
In the railway industry, it is crucial to constantly monitor the condition of the tracks to ensure the safe operation of trains. In particular, rail distortions and abnormalities at joints can lead to derailment accidents, necessitating early detection and appropriate responses. Nearline-PM enables the early detection of track anomalies through vibration diagnostics using wireless vibration sensors, allowing for planned maintenance. This contributes to improved safety and reduced maintenance costs. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Monitoring rail vibrations - Detecting abnormalities at track joints - Monitoring the operation of switches 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Reduced derailment risk - Optimization of maintenance cycles - Enhanced operational safety

basic information
【Features】 - Utilizes battery-operated wireless sensors, eliminating the need for wiring work. - Enables near-continuous monitoring with automatic measurements once a day as standard. *Measurement frequency can be set as desired. - Can be retrofitted, making it suitable for a small start. - Supports high frequencies (17kHz) to detect initial abnormalities in bearings. - Despite being a compact sensor, it is designed for a long battery life of approximately 5 years. 【Our Strengths】 Asahi Kasei Engineering Corporation provides consistent engineering services from design and construction to maintenance, offering optimal solutions tailored to customer needs. Through the development of diagnostic equipment utilizing digital technology, we support the safe operation of railway infrastructure. Our company is characterized not only by the introduction of vibration sensors but also by the support provided by engineers who have been directly involved in vibration diagnostics, taking into account how equipment is used and points that may cause confusion in judgment. In recent years, in addition to factory equipment, we have also started vibration monitoring and diagnostic services for ships, with engineers holding ISO 18436-compliant vibration diagnostic qualifications. We hope to become a presence that you can remember when questions arise, such as, "How should I consider this case?"
