From 6 to 8 May 2025, Althen Sensors & Controls will be present at Train & Rail in Stockholm (booth A01:19), the largest railway exhibition in the Nordics.
Our team of experts will showcase our end-to-end railway measurement systems and our wide range of train measurement tools. Discover all our high-precision railway solutions and plan your visit.
Automated 3D Wheel Measurement System
Find out how our automated 3D wheel measurement is developed for contactless, automatic, real-time measurement of geometrical parameters of railway wheels (trains, trams, metros), and how the system is based on a combination of high-frequency 2D laser scanners mounted sideways of the rails that, after calibration, create a common 3D coordinate system.
Train Weighing In Motion System
Cost-effective accuracy, uneven or overload detection, monitoring all train sets, and detecting derailment risks. Find out how our Weighing in Motion system is a stationary measurement system able to function as a dynamic weighing scale, and is also used for wheel flat plus train detection.
Wheel Maintenance Measurement Tools
The easiest and fastest way to get reliable and accurate wheel parameters? Discover at Train & Rail how our wheel measurement tools are based on laser technology and developed to be used in railway maintenance locations to measure the diameter, scan the profile, and measure the back-2-back distance in a modern and innovative way.
FDKP Wheel Profile Gauge
- Laser scanning and analysis of wheel profile
- Contactless measurement of wheel profile parameters
- PDA & software for wheel wear database support
- Bluetooth interface for data transfer
FDK Wheel Diameter Gauge
- Without having to roll-out wheelset
- For various diameters and ranges
- Accuracy: ± 0,1 mm
- Including Calibration Certificate
FDIMR Back-to-Back Gauge
- Measures the back-to-back distance
- Without wheelset roll-out
- Accuracy: ±0.1mm
