What Is OpenRail Overhead Line Designer? OpenRail Overhead Line Designer brings 3D to the world of overhead line catenary systems, advancing workflows beyond traditional plan production into the development of digital twins with asset information for the entire lifecycle. Implementation of digital twin technology will significantly decrease production time of construction deliverables, including plan layouts, reports and detailed structural erection diagrams.

• Design overhead line electrification systems with custom design standards and 3D modeling of wires and structures
• Use Siemens Sicat Master functionality for advanced overhead line analysis
• Use OpenRail Designer for design of track and corridor models
• Bring real-world settings to your project by quickly gathering context data from a variety of sources, such as point clouds, 3D reality meshes, terrain data, images, and geospatial information
• Easily share project information across teams, locations, and disciplines with precision and security
• Perform regression analysis, horizontal and vertical alignment, cant design, and turnout placement to international standards
• Improve asset quality and reduce rework with a fully localized application
• Share realistic visualizations with the public and stakeholders to gather feedback, improve public engagements, and speed project approvals

Data and Design Integration

You don’t work in a silo and neither should your software. From integrating existing track geometry to working with other project partners, OpenRail Overhead Line Designer makes it easy to work with different data types, disciplines, and distributed teams.

Design Automation and Standardization

Work smarter, reduce risk, and avoid rework with user-friendly design automation tools, and digital workflows that ensure changes to masts, wires, structures, and assemblies are all updated in real time. Reduce design time, cost and risk while adhering to contract requirements on time every time with user definable design rules that allow engineers to focus on the design process.

Future Proofed Deliverables

Whether you need to produce traditional 2D plans and reports, advance to 3D modeling or support wider digital transformation within your project or organization, OpenRail Overhead Line Designer does it all.
