Predictive Maintenance

Success Stories

Bombardier achieves 8 times faster validation of wagon ride and safety with nCode GlyphWorks

 

Bombardier Transportation is one of the world’s leading companies in the rail equipment manufacturing and servicing industry. The company’s manufacturing operation in Derby builds passenger rail vehicles for the UK market. The company’s test facility in Derby provides independent testing services to rail vehicle owners and operators in the UK, Europe and worldwide. European freight wagons require compliance with a number of rail vehicle ride and safety standards such as the European Standard BS EN 14363. In the past, it took about 160 hours to analyze test data to verify compliance with this safety standard. The data analysis flow typically consists of filtering data, performing frequency analysis, and statistical analysis and generating reports.

 

Bombardier Transportation now uses HBK nCode GlyphWorks test data analysis software to automate this process, reducing the time required to analyze test data from 160 hours to about 20 hours. In addition to saving time, the automated process provides a very high level of assurance that the data analysis procedures required to validate compliance with the standard have been followed to specification.

Wayside Measurement

Brochure

Argos® KI
 

The Argos® AI was developed to find a method to make predictive maintenance of the wheels as simple and efficient as possible. The OOR (Out-of-Roundness) value of each wheel can be predicted with great accuracy 3 months into the future.

Argos® AI is not only checked once, but always with the latest data during operation and further improved to achieve the most accurate result. Through these predictions, it is possible to plan the maintenance of the rolling stock and its wheels and to minimise unplanned downtimes. This also enables more efficient utilisation of the vehicle's service life.

Wayside Train Monitoring
 

The modular design of Argos® is its strength. Argos®is continuously developed to adapt to changing application requirements. Argos® can be extended from the cost-effective and simple wayside train monitoring system (WTMS) to the precise and efficient wayside train monitoring and measurement system (WTM+M system) at any time.

The more accurate the measurement data in WTMS systems is the more safely and precisely you can implement changes to your existing rail system. Only valid measurement data allow the development of further business models and strategies for preventive maintenance and cost reduction measures.

Sound & Vibration

Product Data

PULSE Array Acoustics, Rail Vehicles Moving Source Beamforming BZ-5939
 

Rail Vehicles Moving Source Beamforming BZ-5939 is an option for PULSE Array Acoustics, Beamforming Type 8608, an array-based noise source identification (NSI) application for PULSE. Beamforming is a method of mapping noise sources by using an array of microphones to detect the direction of arrival of sound from the sources to the array. BZ-5939 follows linear movement parallel to the planar microphone array and enables speed-position calculation from a pulsed speed signal, or photocells. The option also enables a display of mapping versus position and pressure contribution versus position and frequency at the same time. The display of the results has been optimized to accommodate long rail vehicles.

Recorded Webinar

Rail Vehicle Moving Source Beamforming
 

In this recorded webinar, you’ll learn more about beamforming, an array-based measurement technique for the localization of noise sources. This method is often used on stationary (fixed) sources but can also be applied to moving sources such as pass-by of rail vehicles. Using practical examples, we will describe the hardware and software setup necessary to perform the measurements and visualize and rank the main noise sources, which for rail vehicles are typically pantographs, wheels and bogies.
