Railways
India hosts amongst the largest railway networks in the world and ferries about over 8 billion people annually. In addition the freight volume tips the scale at over 1 billion tons as well. Industry here in India or anywhere across the world need to operate in diametrically different environments, temperatures and socio-political environments. An expanding railway, metro, bullet train and in the future the hyperloop rail network is inevitable with the growing demand for transportation.
Railways isn’t about the transportation business only, its usually a large employer and expansion of existing network or upgrade of laid out infrastructure is a big area of development as well. Within India the railway system government operates the entire infrastructure as a social venture however there’s increasing impetus on reducing cost of operations and related losses to the exchequer.
Though there’s a surge towards modernizing and upgrading the existing infrastructure Condition Monitoring deployed on upgrade or on existing modules could greatly bolster savings.

Condition Monitoring Few Examples
- Pre and post environmental impact analysis with Vibrations, Sound, Soil etc
- Acoustic Monitoring devices for track aberrations or developing fissures
- Fault identification in bogies while in operations through online vibration monitoring
- Keep train infra running and operational without downtime through online monitoring
Test & Measurement Few Examples
- Cable fault detection for fault and spark prevention on overhead cable
- Condition monitoring for diesel generators and Oil Analysis for engine and gearbox wear check within locomotives
