RAILPROFILE 3D

LASER PROFILOMETER FOR 3D SWITCH PROFILE MEASUREMENT

Railprofile 3D is a laser measuring device designed to measure turnouts. The result of the measurement is a 3D model of the measured object. The device is delivered with software that allows processing measurements, including: assembling multiple measurements into one object, generating any 2D profiles, calculating longitudinal profiles, and generating reports.

The measurement result is the 3D model of the measured object, that is exact representation of the measured object both in the lateral and transverse directions. The device is delivered with the PC software making processing of the measurement results possible, including: merging of multiple measurements into one object, generating of the arbitrarily selected 2D profiles, calculation of the longitudinal profiles, generating measurement reports.

Exemplary measurement of the crossing frog. The drawing below shows the model of the measured crossing developed with 1 mm measurement increment.

The software delivered makes it possible to recognize the particular crossing elements, i.e„ point, left and right wing rails. Based on these elements, the mathematical point of the crossing is calculated.

Using the 3D model, the user can acquire any transverse section profile. The section direction may be defined manually or a series of transverse sections may be generated with the particular increment along the selected virtual axis. The drawing below shows an example of the generated transverse section profile.

To determine the longitudinal wear of the measured elements the user may define a section (blue line below), along which the software will calculate the shape of the inspected element. This way it is possible, e.g., to determined crossing point wear in the vertical- or horizontal direction. The drawing below shows an example of the frog shape analysis.
