S Strukton Rail: POSS in the cloud Strukton Rail is exhibiting POSS in the cloud at InnoTrans 2012. POSS is a preventive maintenance and diagnostics system that has been developed by Strukton. It provides remote monitoring of the condition of systems and objects such as actuators, train location and rail crossings. POSS registers any deviations from the norm and can identify such deviations before they can cause faults or breakdowns. The information can be accessed over the internet and can be evaluated anywhere and at any time. In other words: the information is available in the POSS cloud. POSS transfers rail maintenance and fault messages from a reactive to a proactive process. The end result: reduced risks and fewer delays for travellers. This exhibitor is also using this trade show to provide details about long term projects, for example in Norway, Sweden and Denmark, and about projects outside Europe.

This exhibit is the first double deck train to be retrofitted with two new compact air conditioning systems in each carriage, an adapted energy supply and some new duct routes. Halfway through their life cycle SBB is modernising its 115 double deck trains in its own workshops, and is subsequently installing air conditioning, enabling passengers to continue travelling in comfort for a further 20 years. For SBB modernisation is an interesting alternative to the procurement of new rolling stock. For vehicles designed in the 1990s the technology was not sufficiently advanced to allow the kind of work now being carried out on the DPZ, in particular in view of weight restrictions and shortage of space. Among the major challenges facing the modernisation project are the need to penetrate the structure of the car body and the retrofitting with compact air conditioning equipment.

T Syntactix: PALEDO – mobile maintenance with digital documentation PALEDO is an innovative, mobile documentation system for use with maintenance processes. Developed by Syntactix, it eliminates the need for paper in the documentation process, because all data is directly recorded in digital form. As a result there is no need to type up paper records, with the ever-present risk of errors. The system combines user-friendly software with an ergonomic and rugged tablet PC as the input device. The customer’s existing documentation is incorporated one to one in the digital process and, with the aid of reliable handwriting recognition, entering the details is as easy as using a pen and paper. The software integrates calculations in the documentary record. Using data that has already been entered, when tolerances are exceeded or serious defects occur these are identified and marked automatically. Because users enter the details by hand on familiar documents, the system is very easily adopted by all staff. The entire system can be integrated without any problems in existing IT systems.

The manufacturer explains that it operates reliably at between speeds of 10 and 250 kph (6 to 155 mph). Readings are obtained automatically and reproducibility has been significantly improved. In the past problems with wheels have been detected by ear, by using various instruments, visually or in the workshop. Flat areas damage the track and cause bearings to overheat. This in turn can lead to axle damage or to loosening of the wheels. Worn or damaged bearings also lead to other forms of damage. Scalex WILD monitors the forces between the wheels and the rail in order to identify any possible damage. When the pre-set limit is reached the system immediately activates an alarm, showing the wagon and wheels involved. The Finnish transport authority has decided to install several of these systems on the country’s main lines.
