The Crossing Area Monitoring module allows for the diagnosis and prediction of wear on critical crossing components like the crossing nose (frog), wing rails and guard rails. The crossing area's discontinuity subjects mechanical parts in this region to high dynamic impact and creep forces, causing continuous degradation.
A targeted monitoring solution enables condition-based and prescriptive maintenance strategies by assessing the actual health state of assets/components, predicting remaining service life, and suggesting corrective measures well in advance. This proactive approach prevents emerging defects from leading to component failure and subsequent traffic disruptions.
Additionally, this module assesses passing wheel quality to detect worn or hollow wheels, which can elevate dynamic loads and contribute to crossing panel component degradation.
