Inspections and tests are required for the approval of rail vehicles. DIN EN 14363 "Railway applications - tests and simulations for the approval of the driving properties of railway vehicles - driving behavior and stationary tests" is relevant for the field of driving technology. Among other things, it is necessary for approval to measure the forces between wheel and rail, which requires the use of measuring wheel sets. These can measure the acting forces with the help of strain gauges (DMS) through the occurring deformations of the wheels and axle.
We provide support in the following areas for measuring wheelsets:
— Requirements analysis for test vehicles and test conditions
— Preparation of the test design and the implementation plan
