Track Data

For product development or for getting data for type tests it is important to get first hand data from test runs on train.
For aerodynamic loads reliable data are hardly available. We measure pressure peaks as they arise during operation of train.

For dimensioning of gangways we have developed a testing method, which allows  measuring movements of carriages against each other. Six kinds of movement are possible. From data of test run we can calculate the separate share of every of these elongations on total elongation of carriage ends.
This method is tested and proven on several test runs on train.
