Overview
CALIPRI X is an automated, permanently installed on-track wheelset measurement system designed for the rail industry. It replaces time-consuming and costly manual wheelset measurements by delivering precise results in seconds, immediately identifying out-of-tolerance areas. The system measures all wheelset parameters according to the European standard EN 15313, including wheel profile, diameter, back-to-back distance, equivalent conicity, camber, and wheel toe. By providing an accurate understanding of wheelset conditions, CALIPRI X enables rail operators to transition from interval-based to condition-based maintenance, and ultimately to predictive maintenance, facilitating better resource planning and significant operational cost savings.
