Smart Sensor Systems

Precise and robust identification

Applications for the railway industry

Rail & Railway Infrastructure

The market for wireless identification (Wireless ID) and smart sensor systems is gaining increasing importance, particularly in the railway industry. Our innovative technologies enable you to reliably identify critical components, make maintenance processes more efficient, and sustainably enhance operational safet

Identification of critical components

Using robust passive UHF transponders, we ensure the secure identification of key components such as axles, braking systems, and other safety-critical parts of the train. With the PENsolid, these transponders can be read easily, enabling GS1-compliant serial number queries according to GIAI or SGTIN encoding. More information can be found here.

Railway optimized components

Our components are specifically designed for railway conditions and meet the highest industry standards in accordance with EN50155 and ISO/IEC 61406. The combination of UHF and NFC in a single transponder provides optimal coverage for both medium and long ranges. The robust design, based on the EM Echo chip, also ensures high reliability and durability.

 

Programming of digital name plates

Digital name plates can be programmed quickly and easily using our iID®EPCprogrammer app for Android. The app supports the GS1 encoding schemes GIAI and SGTIN, thereby optimizing mobile workflows. In addition, we offer a stationary solution for integration into your production processes.

Predictive maintenance for trains & rails

Our intelligent sensor systems enable predictive maintenance, reducing maintenance costs and significantly minimizing planning efforts. Continuous analysis of vibration patterns allows early detection of material fatigue and environmental changes, helping to prevent unplanned downtime.

Checking screw connections

To enhance safety, our solutions offer the ability to monitor bolted connections on rails, switches, and noise barriers using passive RFID sensor transponders TELID® 260. Our intelligent nut technology enables contactless real-time measurement of preload forces, significantly increasing the long-term safety of your infrastructure.
