MATISA track inspection vehicles are versatile and suitable to each customer requirements and and will fulfill your entire satisfaction. They can be equipped with one or more measuring systems to inspect your railway infrastructure parameters. Thanks to their construction which is similar to “passenger” type rail vehicles, The Top range of our vehicles covers the specific needs of heavy-traffic, high-speed networks. Their advanced auscultation system enable us to offer a high quality, safety and an optimum maintenance of your railway networks.
M 10
VERSATILITY IN ALL SIMPLICITY
Whatever the track gauge, clearance gauge or climatic conditions, the M 10 measuring vehicles are prepared for an efficient and reliable inspection up to 80 km/h. These vehicles on axles or bogies have a high robustness. With 2 cabins connected by a passage in protected engine compartment, this self-propelled vehicle allows the installation of a larger number of measurement systems.
M 10 E
ECONOMICAL AUSCULTATION
This small self-propelled vehicle is designed for independent and cost-efficient inspections for a limited duration. The single driving post is raised and ensures good visibility as well as the operator’s comfort.
The cabin can accommodate up to 2 workstations.
This model meets the requirement of every budget, without compromising on the quality of the inspections. The very rigid frame acts as a reference for measuring track geometry.
M 10 ON BOGIES
THE PARTNER OF THE METROS
The M10 measuring vehicle is also available on bogies to meet the requirements of certain metro lines with small-radius curves, limited in the weight per axle and the need for a short wheel base.
The optical sensor technology is based on projecting LASER pulses onto the rail. The profile is obtained this way and, with the help of a camera, the useful data for calculating the parameters of the track geometry are determined by triangulation.
The MATISA mechanical sensors are composed of rollers which simulate the passage of railway wheels and are sensed pneumatically against the rails. The counter-rollers ensure a smooth run over any type of turnout.
Two MATISA optical sensors determine the transverse profile of the rail, each measuring one side of the profile of the same rail.
The complete rail profile is obtained by superposing the two measured profiles.
Based on a set of punctual LASER sensors, the longitudinal profile of the track is determined using the 3-point measurement principle. A control system guided with the help of a pair LASER-CAMERA keeps the punctual lasers at the rail top.
In addition to the technologies mentioned above and fully mastered by MATISA, additional parameters, analysis and measurment system can be integrated into MATISA’s track inspection for a railway infrastructure. In this case the particular systems will be focus on the following aspects:
