Amberg TrackControl: Seamless safety of railway tracks

Amberg TrackControl is the new innovative monitoring solution for railway tracks assuring highest reliability and safety.

Amberg TrackControl monitors all safety-relevant track parameters such as superelevation, twist and vertical versine ̶ regardless of the weather conditions and in a high interval of one minute.

Data acquisition takes place reliably once every minute

The system works independently of weather-related restrictions such as rain, snow or fog.
Even standing or passing trains cause no problems for the geotechnical sensors.
Highest safety for railway operation due to high measurement accuracy, reliability and application of advanced analyse methods.
Low personnel and maintenance costs thanks to simple and compact design.
With the GEOvis 4.0 platform, real-time measurement data can be retrieved, visualized and analyzed at any time and from anywhere.
The integrated alarm function informs you in real time by email or SMS.
The system is suitable for the following areas of application:

- For construction sites close to railway tracks.

- For underpassing construction measures (pipe jacking, tunnels, underpasses, etc.)

- When using auxiliary bridges.
