Track Geometry Measurement System

Holland's TrackSTAR® vehicles measure all industry-standard track geometry parameters to FRA, Transport Canada or user-defined thresholdTrack Geometry values including:

    •  Track Gauge
    •  Horizontal and Vertical Alignment
    •  Left and Right Surface
    •  Cross-level
    •  Twist and Warp


Our inertial based non-contact system produces space curve measurements and translates data into full track geometry.

All real time geometry and exception screens can be customized to your requirements. Geometry measurements are to within ± 1mm down to 5 mph.

Benefits

    •  Permits you to maintain your track to a set standard
    •  Locates track defects before they become a hazardous condition
    •  Permits you to find defects that are not easily located by sight
    •  Organizes track repairs on a priority basis
    •  Enables you to use data to program and schedule work loads today and in the future
    •  Enables track management and forecasting processes
    •  Derailment prevention / Investigation
    •  Spot maintenance indication / prioritization
