Voith Turbo and Siemens signed an agreement for the development of a condition monitoring solution for the Voith Scharfenberg coupler.
Under the cooperation’s framework, Voith will take over the development of the solution, while Siemens integrates the application into Railigent, which is based on MindShpere, the underlying Siemens IoT operating system. The Voith solution which will be developed is to be offered on the Siemens Railigent application suite. This solution monitors the coupler’s deformation tube and damper, and will be able to lower inspection and maintenance costs. Furthermore it reduces unplanned down-time and increases the level of passenger safety.
Railigent offers a wide range of digital services to manage rail assets smarter, including apps for smart monitoring, smart data analysis and smart prediction for rolling stock, signaling as well as for rail infrastructure.
