GEOPAR - Sistema di Misura Ruote Vagoni

"Geopar-VKP"system

The  system is designed  for making automatic measurement of 27 geometric parameters  of wheel pairs of wagons in  the course of  incoming and outgoing inspections carried out in railcar/wheel shops,  wagon depots and  wheelpair repair and gathering workshops.

Parameters under control

Wheel parameters:  out-of-roundness, deviation of  roll  surface  countour from  desired profile, wheel flange parameters, wheel tread width and thickness,  defects on rolling surface, and wheel separation distance.

Axle  journal  parameters:  average diameters underneath the first  and second bearings, out-of-roundness and taper. 

Axle parameters:  diameters  and  ovality  of  pre-wheel-seat  parts, diameters  of  wheal seats  and middle parts of axle

"Geopar-LKP"system

 The system is intended for use in automated measurement of  17 geometric parameters of  locomotive wheelsets in the process of repair.

Parameters under control

Wheel parameters controlled:  diameter and out-of-roundness of wheel tire over the rolling circle, wheel tire thickness and width, flange thickness and height, deviation of  the rolling surface profile from maximum profile values.

Controlled parameters of a toothed gear wheel:  tooth thickness

Controlled parameters of a wheelset:  the distance between inner lateral faces of tires, hubs and gear wheels. 

Controlled parameters of a wheelset axle:  box journal diameters, pre-wheelseat parts, middle axle parts, diameter of journal for motor-axle bearin

"Geopar-KC" System

The system is intended for use in automated measurement of  8 geometric parameters of wheel centres  in the process of repair.

Parameters under control

Rim diameter, variability of diameter along lateral and longitudinal sections, rim diameter difference, inter-rim distance,  inter-rim distance difference, rim radial runout, rim width.
