Principle

How it works

01

Measurement

The pressure of every tyre is read as the train passes, on both the running surfaces and the guide bars.

02

Diagnosis

The system analyses and flags any anomaly in real time, whatever the rolling stock and its manufacturer.

03

Alert

If a fault occurs, the information is passed on in real time to the operator and to the control room.
