- Join Phillippa Dean, editor of Railways Africa, as she discusses innovative rail safety technology with Steve Mahede, Business Development Manager at MRX, a Siemens company, during the recent Africa Rail event.
In this insightful interview, Steve explains the groundbreaking broken rail detection system. This advanced technology, mounted on locomotives or wagons, detects rail breaks in real time and transmits crucial data to the control centre. This not only enhances safety by providing more accurate and timely information for maintenance but also prevents theft and vandalism as it removes trackside equipment.
Key points covered:
👉 Condition-based monitoring for track infrastructure and rolling stock
👉 Benefits of relocating detection systems from trackside to locomotives
👉 Future enhancements with integrated sensors for comprehensive rail condition monitoring
👉 Cost-saving and efficiency improvements in rail maintenance operations
👉 The potential of big data and the Internet of Things (IoT) in rail digitalisation
Learn more about how Siemens is leveraging technology to improve railway safety and efficiency.
