Predictive maintenance for the railway industry

The wear of rails, wheels and brake discs becomes predictable due to profile measurements done by the hand-held CALIPRI devices. In order to optimize maintenance cycles, parameters like wheel profile and diameter, the tire thickness and radial/axial runout are measured. Due to completely contact-free measurement and patented tilt correction the results are high-precise, operator-independent and reproducible.

Precision gap, flush & radius measurement

In prototyping and serial production the symmetry of car bodies is evaluated by the optical measurement system CALIPRI. Within seconds the gap and flush measurements are completed. NEXTSENSE offers both offline and inline solutions for audit stations and production lines. System-wide evaluation methods allow the detection of assembling process failures, thus optimizing the overall production process.

Profile measurement and surface inspection for long steel products

Continuous quality control and monitoring of individual production stages are the main reasons why the steel industry measures the profiles and surfaces of their products. The optical measurement systems of NEXTSENSE are able to measure profiles and inspect the surface of cold and hot long products, thereby assessing the dimensional accuracy and surface quality. Depending on the individual customer needs single or multiple measurement tasks can be performed by the mobile or stationary systems.
