Pressure measuring instrument Schenck Process MULTIRAIL® BogieLoad Test Bed
When train speeds are high, there are two crucial requirements: safety and minimal wear. Only perfectly maintained bogies ensure that these demands are met. This is where the most recent Schenck development comes into play: the first test bed using spindle technology.
With MULTIRAIL® BogieLoad, Schenck is banking on safety through all around inspection. Electromechanically designed, the bogie test bed inspects the bogie using the so called spindle technology developed by Schenck. This novel feature increases repeatability and accuracy whilst reducing the maintenance expenditure.
The novel test bed technology of SCHENCK is used for the inspection of high speed train bogies. BogieLoad measures and acquires the wheel load distribution with the use of weighbeams. Geometrical data e.g. axis parallelism, are among the additional measuring parameters.
Typical application: bogies of high speed trains ICE 1, ICE 2, ICE 3, ET 420, ET 426.
