\n
\n

The intelligent networking of components and infrastructure forms the basis for modern rail transport. In an environment characterized by extreme mechanical loads, our solutions ensure maximum precision and reliability. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\n

The unique identification and condition monitoring of critical components are crucial factors for smooth operation today. With rail-optimized sensor technology, we make important condition data digitally accessible to optimize maintenance processes and permanently increase safety. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Our solutions enable the technological leap from purely reactive measures to intelligent, digital processes. By combining robust hardware, global data standards, and mobile flexibility, the operational readiness of rail vehicles and systems is maximized, and the infrastructure is efficiently secured. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Areas of Application for RFID in the Rail Sector<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

Applications<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n
\n
\uf0eb<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n

Intelligent Asset Management & Component Identification<\/b><\/h3>\n

The unique identification <\/span>of critical train components such as axles and brakes enables seamless traceability. <\/span>By using <\/span>digital type plates with GS1-compliant encodings (GIAI\/SGTIN), physical markings are digitized and made accessible via mobile devices.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\ue0f7<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n

Predictive Maintenance <\/b><\/h3>\n

Through continuous monitoring of <\/span>vibrations and material fatigue on trains and tracks, signs of wear can be detected early. <\/span>This helps to plan maintenance processes more efficiently and significantly reduce <\/span>unplanned downtimes and operating costs.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\uf807<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n

Safety Monitoring of Infrastructure & Connections<\/b> <\/span><\/h3>\n

Wireless sensors monitor the condition of the rail infrastructure, especially <\/span>safety-critical bolted connections on switches or noise barriers.<\/span> Long-term monitoring of structures using <\/span>acceleration sensors also contributes to the safety of the entire railway system. <\/span> <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Practical application examples<\/h2>\n

RFID technology digitalizes the rail sector and makes processes more efficient. Through the intelligent identification of components and infrastructure, maintenance intervals can be precisely determined, and safety in rail transport can be increased. The following practical examples show how costs can be reduced and unplanned downtimes can be sustainably avoided. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\n

Mobile Programming of Digital Type Plates<\/h3>
\n

The iID\u00aeEPCprogrammer App for Android enables the programming and updating of digital type plates directly on-site. By using standard smart devices, GS1-compliant data (GIAI or SGTIN) can be efficiently integrated into maintenance processes without expensive specialized hardware. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

Predictive Maintenance for Critical Train Components <\/h3>
\n

By using TELID\u00ae data loggers, <\/span>vibration profiles during travel are recorded and analyzed<\/span>. Material fatigue or environmental changes to the chassis become visible before damage occurs, which increases safety and optimizes maintenance planning.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

Non-Contact Inspection of Switch Bolted Connections<\/h3>
\n

The intelligent RFID nut <\/span>TELID\u00ae 260 makes it possible to measure the preload forces of bolted connections on rails and switches <\/span>contactlessly and in real-time. Since the existing connection does not need to be structurally altered for the integration of the sensor technology, this is a highly efficient solution for permanently securing the infrastructure.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
